Chapter 36: over

The tall, familiar figure strode towards me. His eyes were running over me, as though he could not believe his own ingenuity.

"How do you feel?" he asked. I didn't know what to answer. "How have they treated you?"

"I think," I said, my voice shaking with anger, "that you have caused my friends and father enough suffering to surpass anything you went through during your lifetime."

"Oh, doubtful. Nothing could ever repay what was done to me."

"You mean, what you did to yourself. Your father left you to make money, so he could support you!"

"And how did he end up? Stranded, delusional, on a beach to die."

"He died because he saw this happening, and he couldn't understand the evil that could possess his son. He died mourning the loss of you."

"Enough of this," Dantos said softly, coming closer. "You're mine now. And the first thing you will do is get rid of anything that can come between the two of us. We will do extraordinary things together. We need to get rid of any distractions. You understand, I'm sure."

His eyes grew big and in a rush he lunged at me, and scenes passed before my mind's mind in a fast motion and I saw my self holding someone by the throat. The urge to crush this person was overwhelming. This life had to be extinguished, in order for Dantos's will to prevail. Crush it… strangle… Strength coursed through my veins, with an adrenaline I never knew I had, and I couldn't see, nothing was clear. Roaring in my ears and I cant see everythings blackWho was it? Where… "You can love" "Love" "LOVE" no you must die
