A part of him that is still sane knows how unhealthy his desires are, the things he gets pleasure out of are so vile and filthy that sometimes his own subconscious gets disgusted by him.“You don’t know what you do to me Belle, when his name falls out of your pretty lips it makes me so mad. It turns me into a monster, just hearing his name drives me crazy Isabelle. Then why do you keep doing it babygirl?” He slowly gets on top of her and cages her torso in between his muscular thighs.
