All I wanted to do was to take you into my arms. I thought that it would be the best memory of my life. But when I saw the blood on the sheets and when you cried out Lyle's name as you held onto me, only then did I realize that you weren't doing well.”
• He paused, then continued, “Eve, we've missed out on each other for so many years. This time, no one can take you away from me. You can only be mine no matter what.”
• “You're mine, Eve. Do you know that?” Christopher whispered affectionately.
