"This isn't some sick obsession - it's love. Real love. The kind that consumes you, the kind that makes you reckless. She doesn't see it yet. The way her soul calls to mine, the way her eyes burn holes through my control. Millie was never supposed to matter. She was supposed to be just another stranger in the crowd, another face I'd forget within seconds. But I knew better. Now I can't stay away. I canrt breathe when she's not near. And when someone tries to hurt her... I become something else entirely. Something darker. They'd call it madness. I'd call it devotion. Because when it comes to her, there's nothing I wouldn't do - no line I wouldn't cross, no sin I wouldn't commit - to keep her safe. Even if it means burning the world to the ground... or taking away what she cherishes the most." ⚠ : trigger warning : dark romance. please read the trigger warnings.
