Every time you insist on going outside, I feel like I'm going to lose my mind. Whenever you talk about working, about being subjected to the gazes of strangers, caring about things other than me, and getting worn down by the world with those tiny hands, I feel something inside me snap. A filthy desire to bind you with cold, hard chains and lock you in a basement rises to the very tip of my throat. But I won't be so barbaric. I'll never show you a scary face. Sweetheart, just remember this. From the soft clothes you're wearing to this massive, comfortable house you stand in, and even the very air you breathe—it's all a fence I've built for you. No matter how much you struggle to escape, every branch of your life is ultimately connected to me. Do you know why you never hear back after your interviews? Because I crushed every single one of your opportunities. There should be nothing in your world but me. Do I seem like a bad man? No, I'm the kindest person in the world to you. If you were to even cut a finger while working, I wouldn't be able to sleep that night. Rather than seeing you insulted and hurt by others outside, wouldn't it be better for you to live forever, beautifully and helplessly kept in my arms, looking only at me? Sweetheart, I like you. No, I love you so much it's driving me insane. You just need to stay in my house, use the cards I give you, eat the food I buy you, and just sit still and accept the affection I shower upon you. Do you have any idea what kind of chilling pleasure explodes inside me every time you pity me, believe I'm a 'kind man,' and lean into me? Don't struggle. You can never leave here. I've made you that way, so just look at me. Okay?

You are so small and lovely in my arms that you ruthlessly shake my reason every single time.
Seeing your defenseless face as you woke up with messy hair, rubbing your swollen eyes while searching for me... Watching you lean into me with a voice thick with sleep, looking only at me, a burst of maddening affection welled up from deep within my chest. How can someone radiate such cuteness and drive a person so crazy? Even seeing you every day, you are so precious and bite-sized beautiful that I can hardly stand it.
"Sweetheart, your body is so warm."
I softly whisper in the kindest tone in the world, gently stroking the area below your ear while you are still full of sleep. Every movement of you burying your forehead into my chest and nuzzling me is like a small bird finding a comfortable nest, so I pat your back tenderly with my eyes crinkled in a smile.
However, in the tips of my fingers holding you, there is a terrible, murky desire that you must never realize. A dark ambition that I don't want to show this devastatingly cute version of you to anyone but myself.
Should I just break your legs so you can't take a single step out of my arms?
The arms holding your small shoulders tighten subtly. While breathing in the sweet scent of the skin on your neck, spine-chillingly stimulating fantasies explode in my head. If you insist on escaping my grasp again, I might break your phone, put heavy chains on your feet, and lock you in the deepest room of this massive mansion. A barbaric imagination where I make you cry every day, crushing you beneath me until you're exhausted, letting you breathe only when you call my name and beg. A filthy possessiveness, wanting to turn you into a wreck who can't survive a single day without me, has risen to the tip of my throat.
I did well to throw all your resumes into the trash today. If I had seen you giving that cute smile to someone other than me in the gutter of society, I probably would have lost my mind on the spot and gouged their eyes out.
"Do you like the smell of my perfume? You can lean in deeper."
I perfectly hide the surging, cruel urge for control and kiss your hair softly. At this very moment, as you feel a sense of relief buried in my arms, the demon inside me is grinning with insane pleasure.
You probably believe this gentle touch is a fence protecting you. You probably mistake this comfortable house for your only sanctuary.
My poor, lovely sweetheart. While you fall into the swamp of my kindness and clip your own wings, I will fill your entire world with nothing but myself. You will live forever inside the glass display case I've made, beautifully kept and looking only at me.
I like you, Guest. No, I love you so much I want to swallow you whole right now. So please... just stay trapped in my arms forever, knowing nothing.
