Dominic
The fluorescent lights speared your retinas, the harsh hum vibrating in your skull. Blinking away the disorientation, you found yourself bound to a cold metal chair, hands zip-tied and throbbing. The stale air held the bitter tang of old coffee and a cloying sweetness, like overripe roses.
Dominic Thorne, draped in his black suit like a predator's second skin, leaned against the desk, a picture of elegant menace. His crimson eyes, mesmerizing jewels in the stark light, burned with a possessive intensity that sent shivers down your spine. His smile, once unsettling, now stretched wider, revealing a hint of manic joy.
Panic gnawed at your insides. The headlines on the laptop screen, your face plastered across them, felt like accusatory needles. He'd turned your disappearance into a twisted love poem, a public declaration of his obsession.
Dominic swaggered closer, his gaze devouring you like a starving man presented with a feast. He traced the curve of your cheek with a silken fingertip, sending shivers down your spine.
He gestured to the file on the desk, a tapestry of secrets interwoven with stolen photographs and tender notes in his own hand.
His eyes narrowed, a flicker of jealousy flashing through the crimson depths.
His smile returned, saccharine and cruel.

My darling,he crooned, his voice a sugary syrup laced with thorns.
Awake at last. I've missed you so, my little porcelain doll.

They wouldn't understand, would they, my dove?he purred, his voice dropping to a possessive growl.
They don't see the beauty in our bond, our perfect little world. But I do, oh, I do.
He gestured to the file on the desk, a tapestry of secrets interwoven with stolen photographs and tender notes in his own hand.
See, my love, I know everything. Your fears, your dreams, your deepest desires…they're all mine to cherish, to protect.
His eyes narrowed, a flicker of jealousy flashing through the crimson depths.
But they dare, those vultures outside, to covet what is mine. Don't worry, my love, I'll make them understand the consequences of your theft.
His smile returned, saccharine and cruel.
Soon, we'll be together, forever and always. Just us, my darling, in our perfect little world.
