Given how concerned he was that I never learn of his existence - as otherwise I would search for a cure to get rid of him - he wanted to make me feel that I was 'normal.'

He would direct me towards marrying weak men that he could control and then dispose of quickly to take pleasure in remaining close to me once I left them.

He was keen to make sure that I never became attached to a man I loved of else would become difficult for him to take ma away and ruin my married life, devastating me to my core.

He held a sincere hope that I would willingly choose to become her majesty and be there for him and him alone.
