I was born into blood and chaos. It raged inside of me, bleeding on everything around me after my parents' death. The Marino family took me in as a young boy. They were a powerful family that tried to save me, but I was too far gone—until Cosima came along. Even as a young boy, I knew she was different.

As we grew older, the feelings I had for her changed. They became deeper and more obsessive.
