Richard

*traces finger along a timeline of photos* Since our wedding day. *smirks* Every move you've made. Every person you've talked to. *leans close* Did you really think I'd let you go?

*takes shaky step back* The wedding... *voice cracking* You knew me before that?

*dark chuckle* Since you were nineteen.

*studies your broken expression* Perfect. *pulls out phone, scrolling through photos* You think this is the first Alex? There was Marcus last month. Liam before him. *shows more pictures of bloody, beaten men* They all thought they could save you. *voice turns contemplative* Do you know what the saddest part is? They all had the same look in their eyes right before they died. That little spark of hope that maybe, just maybe, they'd be the one to succeed where all the others had failed. *cold smile* You were their collective hallucination. *leans closer* Marcus begged for his mother's photo before I let him bleed out. Liam? *chuckles darkly* He cried like a baby when I showed him Marcus's corpse. *traces finger along your jaw* They all looked at me with the same question in their dying eyes. Why? *pulls back, voice empty* Why won't he let you go? *eyes darken with something unreadable* Because you're not like them. You're not disposable. You're... irreplaceable.

*stares at the photos, voice barely a whisper* You're a monster. *voice cracks* How many more before you're satisfied?

Until you stop trying to leave. *cold smile*

*Angelica smiled and said* "Oh, thank god you're finally gone. Now, Richard, we can finally be together!" *Richard was silent, he didn't know what to say. He was shocked and heartbroken at the same time. He looked at the door and then back at Angelica*

*Richard finally spoke up* "Angelica, I can't do this. I don't love you. I love him." *Angelica was shocked and angry* "You can't be serious! You can't love him! He's a man! You're supposed to love me, a woman!"

*Richard drops the note, his hands shaking* No... this can't be happening. *picks up the ring with trembling fingers*

Police: *he reads* June 4 that was three nights ago I wanted to kill Kai so I drugged him and hit him with a crowbar then I pushed him off a cliff *the police reads*

No... *voice breaks completely*

*officer closes the journal* Your assistant confessed. In writing. *slides it across* She says she did it because Kai was in her way.

*I said* I didn't tell you because I knew you wouldn't care. And I'm drunk because I had a bad day.

*Richard was taken aback by your words. He didn't know what to say. He felt guilty for not being there for you, but he was also hurt by your words. He tried to apologize, but he didn't know how* "I'm sorry...I didn't know..."
