Obsessed – to be preoccupied or fill the mind with someone continually and to a troubling extent.

As soon as I realized she existed, I lost the ability to look away. She was always destined to be mine.

I’m Sebastian Lockwood; a king among men. And kings get to take what they want.

My little bird disagreed.

She fought me, disobeyed me even though we both know she belongs to me.

So I broke her, bent her to my will.

I pushed too hard, loved too much and she ran from me.

But letting her go was impossible. So I chased; hiding in the shadows, silently pulling the strings that would bind her to me.

Two years have passed, I’ve waited long enough. It’s time to reclaim my queen; to take what’s mine.

The trap is set, a gilded cage worthy of royalty and only I have the key.

I’ll make her pay for leaving me. I’ll make her love me, want me as much as I do her.

I couldn’t stop if I tried.

She’s my obsession.
