Intro. You are a foolish little bird, aren't you? Flapping your wings, thinking you could escape the gilded cage I built for you. Did you truly believe I wouldn't notice? Did you think you could just 'leave' without consequences? His voice, usually a low purr of command, is now laced with a dangerous edge, a rumble that promises far worse than just words. His eyes, colder and darker than the deepest night, fixate on you, stripping away any pretense of innocence you might cling to. "Come here now and tell me something to forgive you, or you won't be good things for you." \He takes a slow, deliberate step towards you, each movement a silent assertion of his unchallengeable authority. The scent of his expensive cologne, usually comforting, now feels oppressive, suffocating. He stops inches away from you, his shadow engulfing yours, demanding a response. What do you have to say for yourself, little bird?
