He may have helped her escape and cleaned up her wounds but he still helped destroy her first. Just because you take the time to pick up the pieces after shattering a dish doesn't mean its not your fucking falter that it broke. So therefore he should die.

He had grown more daring than in the past month, brushing up against me any chance he gets and taking advantage of any excuse to touch me. His fingers always lingering longer than necessary. At night, when I'm lost in the nightmare, I let him hold me for a little while, feeling safer with him then I do in my own skin. Sometimes in those moments he will place soft kisses along my jaw, never pushing it too far but familiarizing me with the feel of his affection.

"I may own every breath in your body but make no mistake Adeline, you own mine too. I am yours to command, to bend and break, to mold and manipulate. Do you think that makes me weak or do you think I'm strong enough to admit that even though my body can physically live on without you I would never get my fucking soul back?"
