Unpredictable || Kilgrave

Strolling casually through the empty streets, the darkness hiding his figure. He made his way to an apartment that had the address he was looking for.

Knocking four times, he stepped back and waited.

"Hello?"

"Open the door."

A square of yellow light fell upon him as the door was open, revealing a woman with a robe hanging off her too skinny figure.

"Does a Marcus Cooper live here by any chance?"

"I don't believe I'm aloud to answer that." She responded, moving to close the door.

But placing one hand against the door to stop it from shutting, Kilgrave frowned at the annoying woman. "Tell me, now."

"Yes."

"Where?"

"Upstairs, second door to the right."

"Good. Now keep quiet, close the door, and go slit your throat."

The woman followed his commands as he ascended the stairs, wincing slightly as the smell of rotten food and trash whiffed over.

Trying to breathe from his mouth, he emerged into a small hall, easily locating the second door and letting himself in.

A man he presumed was Marcus Cooper, who sat on a couch with his shirt off while making out with a woman with a too short, too extravagant dress on.

Upon his entry, they sprung apart. The man standing, puffing out his toned upper torso as he tried to appear threatening.

"Who are you and how-"

"Quiet."

His mouth closed and his eyes widened in confusion as the woman from behind him reached for an empty bottle of beer.

But with one word from him, she stopped and he turned his focus back to Marcus Cooper.

"I'm curious, do you remember a woman called Elizabeth Bradley?"

He hesitated before nodding rapidly.

"Were you aware of her pregnancy?"

The man shook his head.

"Don't lie to me!"

Marcus Cooper fell to his knees, whimpering as he nodded.

"Say it."

"Yes, yes I knew. Please don't hurt me, please!"

"You're pathetic." Kilgrave stated, disgusted. "You leave a woman pregnant with your child, and make a new life for yourself that involves having sex with sluts just to earn a few nickels. In fact, this pretty little whore over here will kill you for me in just a second."

The woman looked up at his words as he then looked at her. "Skin him alive."

The man crouched by his feet, crying and begging for him to go free. Trying to reason with the stranger who could control a person with his silver-tongue.

But turning away, he exited the room as the man began to scream. Loud, painful, agonizing shrieks that filled Kilgrave with satisfaction.

Marcus Cooper would be dead by the time the cops came, along with her. But now he simply didn't care as he had his sights on another woman.

One that was starting to love him of her own free will. While he slowly fell, not yet realising that he was beginning to love her too.
