Some stories start off like a fairytale.
Some start off mediocre.
Phoebe's started with untold tragedies.
With a burning desire for freedom.
A father who hates her.
Where she’s taught neglect and abuse is love.
She will stop at nothing to escape and reach her dreams.


Taeyung was a boy raised to be a monster.
A man with a deadly obsession.
Where power through fear and blood became a second language.
Her fire, her bite, her strength.
It was a trap and he fell right in.
Consumed by a desperation to own her.
He’d burn the world for her.
Tear down empires.
Nothing will stop him.
He would have her or no one else would.

"No you'll pay for this." I sneered at her obvious offense.


I leaned closer and whispered loud enough only she could hear. "And I'll take that payment with blood. Don't fuck around, if you don't want to find out."


I let the words hang in the air. Let their meaning settle in.


I meant every word. It was like after that day with Taeyung in the white room. Something changed; I felt less burdened by the pain and fear others experienced.


I walked back to my seat and sat down next to Taeyung; he leaned back resting his arm on the back of my chair.


Everything he did was just so cool. It was unfair.
