Summary
His nightmares and shortcomings haunt him, like the black ice creeping through his veins. Innumerable times he’s dreamt of her, in all manner of ways; beneath him, in his arms, on his lap, in his bed, in his robes, and in all of those dreams, he wants her. Desperately. Carnally. Possessively. In them, he drags her down to the Demonic Realm, kicking and screaming if he has to, and makes her his bride.
Outside those dreams he reveres, he praises, he longs for her – but he never lets himself want. What right could he have? This monster he’s allowed himself to become, with claws and fangs and lifeless eyes, is easy to punish each time he loses focus. This monster picks fights with undead mobs and devils. This monster has self-inflicted scars marking every part of its body. It drinks poison and sleeps on the floor. This monster knows its place.
Lee Seo-eon's sins became her prison; his sins would rob her innocence.
