Thank you for the feedback and the criticism. I will try to cut back on the swearing, but the violence is what makes it. No, he doesn't get off on killing. You will learn more about his past in later chapters. I hope you like it c: Chapters will be short for awhile. I'm a bit busy with classes but weekends I am free, so I will write then, and chapters will be longer.

********************************
I remember slitting her throat wide open, and then her mother's, and then her brother's, all while they were sleeping. Growing up, I had mastered the way of turning off my emotions. Sometimes I felt like when I ignored them, they actually went away. It would have scared me, but it felt good to not worry or have remorse or sadness. It was almost like taking out my emotions on others just made them go away too. Each stab and slice was just draining them out. I liked that idea.
********************************
I was thrown onto a small bed in a dimly lit room. The mystery man leaped forward, and onto the edge of the bed. I slowly backed up, until I touched the headboard. I was trapped. On the side was a small chest, and on the other was a dresser. He would catch me any way I tried to run. I tried my hardest to press myself up against the wall, as if I could melt into it.
His eyes pierced into me. I flinched. "What's your name, honey," he said sweetly with a hint of poison.
My mind went blank. What was my name? I couldn't even remember. The fear had overrun my brain. I tried desperately to regain myself. I knew he was growing impatient when he crawled a bit forward. I choked out, "I-I-Imora." He smiled.
"Adrian," he replied. I don't know why it fitted him, but it did. We sat in silence for awhile. He was looking me all over, from head to toe. I shifted uncomfortably in the silence and turned my head away. He suddenly got up and left the room, and I heard it lock. My body relaxed from its stiffened state and I jumped up, searching the room.
I opened all the dressers in search for a key, a weapon, anything. All I found was a few pairs of boxers, gloves, and some t-shirts. I don't think this was his room, because the rest of the drawers were empty and a bit dusty. I tried to door, just in case, but it was locked. I cursed in my mind about a thousand times.
