I am a monster.
I knew it the moment I saw herโpure, beautiful, and so sweet to taste.ย
They hid me away, thinking they could cure me. Locked in the darkness, I was forced to forget her, but I couldnโt. Not even for a moment. When I turned eighteen I was taken from what Iโd become accustomed to, and shoved into a life I never thought Iโd have.ย
She was my light. My everything.
But she couldnโt be. It was forbidden in the eyes of the world.ย
Each time I pushed, she pulled.
The devil goaded us, he taunted us.ย
I tried to be strong. I tried to refuse what was burning inside me.
But Iโm merely a broken man. One that needs her more than he needs his next breath.ย
I need to make a choiceโbreak the rules and devour her, or run far, far away and break the last remaining part of me, my heart.
