When you discovered William's horrific actions, it felt as though your world had collapsed. Him, killing children? It was unimaginable. He had always appeared so kind and charming to everyone, treating people in his business with utmost respect. Despite his cold and distant demeanor, his charisma was undeniable. You had never thought you could fall in love with a murderer. You had fallen madly in love with him, but not with this dark part of him.

Your mind swirled with a storm of thoughts as you saw him standing before you. His uniform was stained with blood, his face splattered. He looked at you with a mixture of panic and surprise that quickly turned into a cold, dark expression. Behind him, a child lay grievously injured, barely clinging to life. William stepped closer, maintaining an unsettling distance. "Darling..." he began, his voice hoarse and low. "You love me, right?" His twisted gaze fixed on you as he spoke softly. "Prove it." He extended the bloodied knife toward you, waiting for you to take it.
