The Manipulator I can manipulate the emotions of anyone who lets me. I will make you hurt make you cry make you laugh and sigh. But my words don t affect him. Especially not when I plead for him to leave. He s always there watching and waiting. And I can never look away. Not when I want him to come closer. The Shadow I didn t mean to fall in love. But now that I have I can t stay away. I m mesmerized by her smile by her eyes and the way she moves. The way she undresses... I ll keep watching and waiting. Until I can make her mine. And once she is I ll never let her go. Not even when she begs me to. While not required it is highly suggested to read the novella Satan s Affair first.
