MARA
When I first came to Cole’s house, I thought our confrontation
with Shaw was imminent.
Instead, Cole sucks me into a cycle of long bouts of labor on our respective
work, hedonistic meals to recover, and wild, experimental sex.
Cole meant what he said, that he would always be with me, always by my
side. He even breaks his own routine of working in his private studio, joining
the rest of us plebs in the shared building.
With all his designs and materials filling the largest studio at the end of the
hall, we’re never further than a few doors down from each other.
This is to protect me from Shaw, but also to satisfy Cole’s obsessive need to
know where I am and what I’m doing every moment.
It should feel suffocating, but it doesn’t. Probably because Cole is not trying
to interfere with what I want to do. Quite the opposite. He wants to help me
so he can increase my reliance on him.
Sometimes I wonder if he’s going to pull the rug out from under me. Will he
suddenly become violent and cruel when he thinks he has me trapped?
It’s hard to believe he could still be tricking me, that he has some secret plan.
I’ve seen him in too many unguarded moments.
But I may only be fooling myself.
