Chain Reaction

She doesn’t know the things I’ve done. The people I’ve hurt. What these scarred hands are capable of. So I’ll do the only thing I can. I’ll watch over her. A guardian devil, built for her protection. Like the thorns that protect the beautiful rose, I’ll be the ugly that makes anything that tries to hurt her bleed. And if she’s ever in danger, I’ll risk everything for her. Even my soul.
