Darkest desires || Lloyd X OC
From the moment I saw her, I knew she was mine. She was different-untouched by softness, hardened by a world that had done nothing but hurt her. A caged bird who didn't even know what it meant to fly. But I would change that. I would teach her. I would break down those walls she kept around her heart, piece by piece, until there was nothing left between us. At first, she was wary of me. I could see it in her eyes-the doubt, the hesitation. She had never been shown kindness before. Never had someone look at her the way I do, like she's the only thing in this world that matters. And maybe she doesn't realize it yet, but she is. She tries to push me away. That's fine. I like the chase. She says she doesn't need me. But I know the truth. She's been alone for so long, she doesn't know what it's like to belong to someone. But she belongs to me. And I'll make sure she understands that-whether she wants to or not. Because in a world that has given her nothing, I'll give her everything. And if that means keeping her close, keeping her mine, even if I have to chain her to my side... then so be it. She will love me. Even if I have to make her.
