Chapter 66
When I returned, Elijah had his eyes closed, but his breathing told me he was still awake.
I placed everything on the bed and set the bucket beside it. I wet some cotton from the first–aid kit, lathered it with soap, and gently cleaned his body.
Every movement was calculated, removing the sweat and dried blood without touching the injured areas.
Every mark on him fueled my fury, but I swallowed it for now. He needed care, not violence.
After cleaning him patiently, I dried his skin with the towel, ensuring he was comfortable.
“Thank you for taking care of me.”
I looked at him and offered a small smile.
“Of course I’ll take care of you, bunny. I’ve told you… You’re mine. And I take care of what’s mine.”
He averted his gaze to the ceiling, taking a deep breath.
‘I really thought you’d abandoned me.”
My hands paused for a moment.
‘I felt fear, sadness, and the worst… betrayal. You didn’t want to hear me. So I couldn’t even fight back against the Crusher… And I didn’t feel the need to, either.”
His eyes shimmered with raw vulnerability.
Because… I’d rather die if I couldn’t have you with me.”
A jolt shot through my chest.
My bunny.
My desire for him went beyond the flesh.
It wasn’t physical anymore; it was something deeper, more visceral,
I didn’t need to break him anymore–he was already molded to my will.
His mind was rotted by my presence, rooted in me irreversibly.
He might believe he had a choice, but the truth was… there was never an escape.
There never will be.
I could enjoy it now.
He was by my side.
Forever.
“Don’t worry, Elijah. I’ll never let you go. Even if one day you want to leave, I won’t allow it.”
I traced my fingers softly along his face, absorbing the way he relaxed under my touch.
“You’re my greatest treasure, my beautiful masterpiece. My addiction.”

Chapter 66
He smiled faintly, his eyelids heavy with exhaustion.
I can see that… Thank you for saving me, Dante.”
I caressed his hair, allowing myself a rare moment of tenderness.
I’ll always save you, baby.”
He closed his eyes and, within seconds, fell asleep.
I waited a while before gently taking his arms and applying the ointment to his bruises, massaging carefully. Even in sleep, he whimpered in pain, but f continued.
I moved along every mark, tending to the wounds patiently.
“My brave little bunny…”
I spread the ointment over his belly, massaging gently, watching him relax under my touch.
I could feel how much he had surrendered.
So vulnerable in my arms, so defenseless… so mine.
I may have manipulated many things… I molded every step and crafted every scenario so he would fall exactly where I wanted.
But I never lied about how obsessed I am with him.
Addicted to this boy.
To those blue eyes that disarm me and poison me all at once.
To this body that fits mine with irritating perfection, as if it had been sculpted solely for me.
He brings out both the worst and the best in me.
I kill without hesitation.
And I will keep killing.
No matter who.
No matter how many.
But only he… only Elijah will have my hands to care for his body.
My touch to warm him.
My protection to wrap around him.
My existence is to possess him.
And once the FBI stops watching this prison, I will leave.
And I’ll take my bunny with me.
His dream is to see the world.
Then I’ll give it to him.
Chapter 66
Cities, countries, palaces, an entire universe if he wants.
Anything he desires.
Except his freedom.
That… he will never haye.
Because he’s mine.
Mine forever.
