There’sa lull where I wonder what I’m supposed to say, wondering if I’ve upset or angered him, and feeling disappointed that he’s used my actual name rather than a term of endearment, but then a second message arrives. Right when I’m contemplating confiding in him.Saved by the buzz.

Daddy Hatchet

Keep running, someone might chase you, little bunny.

Fuck,that thrills me. And it’s an excellent opportunity to change the subject.

Is that your kink then? Chasing rabbits?

Daddy Hatchet

I like chasing all kinds of prey.

That’s really fucking hot.

Daddy Hatchet

Maybe when you start to trust and confide in me, I can make you my prey and I can hunt you down for that taste I’ve been craving.

I’m an open book. No secrets here. Devour me, Daddy.

Daddy Hatchet

We’ll see. Tell me what happened with Snow. Why did he take those bullets for you? Why is he suddenly a changed man?

Still seems like an arsehole to me.

Daddy Hatchet

I don’t think you really believe that for a second.

Maybe it’s the power of the magical pussy. You should try it sometime. Apparently it can work miracles.

Daddy Hatchet

Maybe once we’ve managed a meaningful conversation rather than flirty banter, I’ll consider it. As beautiful, and I’m sure magical, as your pussy may be, that’s not what’s changed Snow. YOU are. What’s he atoning for? It’s more than just being an arsehole.

Go ask him if you want to know.

Daddy Hatchet

Why are you protecting him?

The same reason I’d protect any of you.

Daddy Hatchet

Which is?

Figure it out yourself. If you want deep and meaningful, tell me this, are you the killer Satan made us watch that news report about?

Daddy Hatchet

I am.

So you killed an entire congregation of people?
