Love Is Nonexistent

Hillary knew better than talking back at her husband. She knew better than breaking his rules. She must obey him, or else she would suffer more. He's a capable predator. While she's a damsel in distress locked in a faraway castle. But she also knew better than spending her life for years of misery. She'll take her time killing the man in her own terms. For her freedom, for all those people he mercilessly killed. For all those dead she pitied. But then again, staring at the man across the long table, she understood. Those who live without love deserves more pity than the dead.
