He wants revenge, but he wants her more.
Once upon a time, there was a little boy.
His belly full of laughter, his life full of joy.
Until one day, something changed; stripped his innocence away.
The hole inside making space for the devil to come and play.
His dreams gone forever, he grew up way too fast.
An endless night of crocodiles, and watches made of glass.
He grew into a villain, the taste of vengeance on his tongue.
Craving to make his enemies pay for the misdeeds they had done.
Instead he found a darling girl, and refused to let her go.
For what better way to make the man pay, than to steal his little shadow.

" I liked the story, for the most part. But why would you have the narrators read all of the parts of their particular chapters?! You have two narrators, use them! It’s distracting listening to it read this way. It would have been soooo much better just having her read the female characters and him read the male characters. Maybe keep that in mind for future books? "
