"Why don't you think I'm a monster?" "I've never said I don't think you are a monster. You are." Sebastian looks at me. His eyes are blank and I can say that he is stunned and shocked and is trying to find words to answer my accusation, but never does. "It's simple, my love. I'm just as much of a monster as you are, maybe even more. I think you are a monster, but I don't hate you. I respect you." --- WARNING: graphic descriptions of violence, smut, mature language --- The first chapters are not as good as I wish they were, but it gets better! --- Please comment and vote!
