Into The Shadows

Twenty Three

We were eating dinner together when I decided to continue with the next step in my plan, to make him jealous, and play into the part of him that needed attention and validation.

"You're being boring, it's getting annoying." I told him. A look of confusion flashed across his face before the look I was waiting for: a mix of fear, betrayal, and most importantly, sadness.

I had decided the best way to make him jealous would be by bringing home a new play-thing and having him care for it. I had already found one that would be best suited for him. A small girl named Minji. She was definitely not my usual type but I thought that would be best for what I was trying to do.

A few days later I finally managed to bring her home and I could tell from the beginning that Suga was anything but pleased, but this was also not what he had expected. He confessed to me that he had believed I was going to kill him, which was absolutely funny, and the offer was definitely tempting at times.

I assigned him the task of feeding and cleaning up after her to begin with. I let him believe my focus was playing with her as I had with him, though I did nothing more than hurt her a little, and it brought me no joy, like I said, she wasn't my type. The more time I spent with her, however, the more I could see Suga growing restless, I knew he was craving attention, but there was no way he was going to get it without getting rid of her first.

"You hate her don't you?" I asked him late one night a few days into her stay. I already knew the answer, but I wanted to hear him say it and push him a little further any way I could.

"I thought you only brought her here as a plaything. As my replacement. " he responded, sounding slightly defeated.

"I think I'll keep her too. After all it's been months since I defeated the police, no point in popping up now, that would just be insane." I pondered aloud. There was no way in hell I would keep her around, she was boring, I hated her just as much as he did and I certainly wanted her gone, but of course Suga had to be the one to do that.

"I thought you didn't like that word."

"I don't."

"You are insane."

I knew he was trying to make me angry, and I would be lying if I said it didn't work, but I would be damned if my plan didn't work, so I held myself back from what we both wanted and continued to leave her for him.

I decided, however, that marking her couldn't hurt my plan, in fact, it may provoke him further. I went downstairs that night to leave pretty little drawings on her skin just like the ones I'd left on Suga, just to see what exactly that would do to him. It certainly was fun to toy with him, even if i didn't get anything further from the interaction.
