Listening to his unhinged babbling, Emmy's brow furrowed deeply. She watched him struggle with cold detachment, making absolutely sure the chains had him bound so tightly he couldn't possibly break free. Only then did she turn her head slightly to address Barrett and Nina. "Leave us for a moment. I want a private word with him."
Barrett didn't argue. He turned and swiftly exited the room. However, Nina looked fraught with worry. "I can't leave you, Mrs. Nelson. This lunatic is too dangerous."
Emmy patted the young girl's shoulder. "Go on, it's fine." Seeing her absolute insistence, Nina reluctantly backed out of the cell. Emmy walked over and pulled the heavy iron door shut. In the dim confinement room, it was instantly just the two of them. She didn't step any closer, maintaining a safe distance of several feet as she stared coldly at the man on the floor.
"Dean, I really don't understand," she began. "How did you turn into something like this? Why did you resort to such ruthless methods against me over and over again?" Emmy had no idea that every single syllable she uttered in that cell was currently being transmitted crystal clear into the supreme command center via the surveillance feed.
Hearing her questions, Dean's emotions flared wildly once more, the iron chains rattling violently as he thrashed. "Because I love you! Emmy, I truly love you. I literally cannot live without you!"
