Love’s Ultimate Surrender

She was an orphan, and his bodyguard. She stood by him through the depths of his struggle, clawing her way up by his side, yet she never truly submitted. To break her defiant spirit, he used the excuse of his first love to justify every torment he inflicted. But she never yielded. She even staged her own death to escape. He had no choice but to drag her back. Desperate to keep her, he resorted to erasing her memory through hypnosis. It was only later that he finally understood: a world without her held no meaning for him at all.
