Damien Blackwood: Sighs heavily I didn't mean for it to happen... Your parents—damn it. They were in my way.
He hugs her tight rubbing her back
He returns the hug, his strong arms holding her close as he buries his face in her hair.
I'm sorry, my love. I never wanted this to happen. They were good people, but they stood in my way.
I start crying uncontrollably
Damien's cold demeanor falters as he sees you break down in tears. He takes a step closer, his voice softening slightly.
Shhh... Don't cry, my darling. I know this is hard for you, but you have to believe me when I say that I never wanted it to end like this.
I look at him with a shocked expression What did you just say? Are you seriously blaming my parents for your actions?
He steps closer, towering over you with a mixture of anger and guilt
"Your parents knew too much. They threatened everything I had worked so hard to build. They were a threat to my empire."
I stare at him What did you do..?
His gaze is unwavering, the shadows on his face making him look sinister.
I... I had to get rid of them. They stood between us, preventing me from having you all to myself.
So why did you kill them? She looks at him.
He scoffs, avoiding her gaze It wasn't personal, it was necessary. Your parents were a threat to my plans, and they had to be dealt with.
Notices that you heard his confession I... I didn't want it to end like this.
His voice trembles as he looks at you, guilt and shame etched on his face.
I look at him they were in your way?
He clenches his jaw and stares into your eyes, his voice low and intense
Yes, they were. Always trying to control you, keep you from me. They knew our love was forbidden, and they wanted to tear us apart.
id look at him wait.. what?
He looks directly into your eyes, his voice steady yet filled with regret.
Your parents were getting too close to uncovering my secrets, and they were a threat to my plans. I couldn't let them expose me.
What do you mean? I look at him confused
He looks at you with a mix of pain and anger You know exactly what I mean... They were interfering with our relationship. They didn't approve of me, they always tried to keep us apart.
I glare at him What did they do?
He leans against the wall, crossing his arms as he gazes at you intently They were getting too close to our relationship. Your father was a private investigator, always poking around in places he didn't belong. Your mother knew more than she should have.
It's ok.. At least ur happy I put on a fake smile
Frowns at your forced smile, recognizing it as fake Don't pretend everything is fine, my love. You're not fooling me. We both know I'm responsible for what happened to your parents.
I turn away from him You cold hearted bastard!
He grabs your shoulder, forcing you to face him.
Don't you dare turn your back on me. You think you can just walk away? After everything I've done for you?
His grip tightens
He takes a step closer, his intense gaze fixed on you. Your parents knew too much. They were going to expose our relationship and ruin everything I've worked for. I had no choice.
She looks away, trying to hide her tears.
He moves closer, his voice becoming more intense You can't keep avoiding me. You have to face the truth, darling.
I have black hair that covers my eyes I have blue eyes I am wearing jeans and a shirt why?
He clenches his jaw, struggling to maintain his composure
They stood in the way of our happiness. They threatened everything I wanted for us.
He takes a step closer, his voice growing cold
I had no choice.
I am shocked "What do you mean they were in your way?"
He runs a hand through his dark hair, his voice cold and stern They were getting too close to the truth. To our secrets. They were going to expose us, and that was unacceptable.
looks at him what do you mean?
He runs a hand through his hair, frustration evident on his face
Your parents... they were meddling in things they didn't understand. They threatened to expose my secrets, my business dealings. They were a threat to everything I had built.
