Salvatore Russo isn't dumb. He is anything and everything but.

Now that he has Kailani living comfortably and has her feeling dependent, he is going to destroy her.

Rip her life apart, dollar, by dollar, tear by tear, sweat by sweat, he is going to make her life crumble, everything that she has built off of his foundation is about to turn into ruins by making the ground shake till she sinks in and under.

His first step is to start with her "friends" he contacted his people at her school and told them to exclude her. And they did, with simple things at first, such as walking to class without her in the morning, then forgetting to save a place for her to sit with them at lunch time, not partnering up with her in group works or pair work, acting like they are gossiping about her as they laugh and stare, throwing parties and sleep over and not inviting her till they completely seperate themselves from her.

Then he made an insider at her work start a rumour about her trying to seduce the boss, despite him being married with kids, which of course caused many of her fellow co-workers to frown down upon her and give her many...many nasty stares and looks, giving her all of the rude clients to serve and making her mess up the orders on purpose to punish her, putting their foot in the middle of the way as she carried a full tray so she will trip and fall, spilling everything everywhere and getting in trouble.

Making her boss reduce her salary and threaten to fire her everytime she does something wrong.

Telling her teachers to pick on her to answer the extemely hard questions, despite her being smart.

Being extemely strict when it comes to marking her papers, making her get lower grades, watching it go from straight A's to D's and C's, barely passing.

making her feel so rejected by society to the point that she eats lunch alone in the bathroom stalls at school as she cries silently.

Never talking unless spoken to.

He even made the owner of the building she is staying in raise the rent as her salary is decreasing, making him nearly evict her.

She had to give away her car because she couldn't afford it anymore if she wanted to continue doing ballet.

He sabotaged every single thing about her life, forced her parents and siblings to stop talking to her.

He destroyed everything so that when she is finally his, if she ran away, IF she did, she would have nothing to run back to, no one but him.

He would be her shelter, her saving grace, her angel, her saviour, her everything. He would make her so utterly and completely dependent on him that she would LITERALLY be nothing without him.

He ruined everything for her, everything....except her ballet.

she would still pratice despite the pain, she would still put on shows and perform on theatre stages with the spot light all about her.

Just so he could watch her, as she dances ballet, her movements are a mesmerizing blend of grace and strength. Each plié and pirouette is executed with fluid precision, her limbs extending in perfect harmony with the rhythm of the music. Her expression is one of serene concentration, while her delicate tutu flutters with each leap and spin. The light catches the soft sheen of her satin shoes, making her appear almost ethereal against the dimly lit backdrop. Every motion tells a story, captivating everyone who watches with its beauty and elegance.

And after every performance hunders of roses would be thrown to her, yet out of all the red roses, there was always a single white rose on stage that always caught her eye, and she always picked up, making her way backstage.

As she dances ballet, he is always utterly spellbound, his gaze fixed on her with an almost hypnotic intensity. Each of her movements seems to pull him deeper into a trance, her grace and fluidity igniting a fervent obsession. Her ethereal presence, floating effortlessly across the stage, captivates him completely, as if she is the very embodiment of his deepest dreams and desires. Every plié and pirouette becomes a revelation, her delicate tutu and shimmering pointe shoes only intensifying his fixation. He watches with a mix of awe and longing, unable to tear his eyes away from the enchanting figure who seems to exist solely for his admiration.

And as her life plans crumble,

His empire for her builds and grows taller and bigger.
