Knox Carson
Knox has never been normal
He's always had that itching feeling in his hands to strangle something... someone
He always had that dark voice in his mind that whispered for him to do bad things.
He's always had anger coursing through his...
"I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you"

"Knox" I breathed out "Marigold" he smiled softly I didn't know what to say. Actually sitting here now, in front of him. With his knuckles indented in my arms and his baby in my stomach... I had no words.
I'm sure I looked horrible, I'd refrained from looking in a mirror ever since I got out the hospital. The purple marks on my skin were slowly blossoming into yellow.
"You look so beautiful" he murmured I felt my breath get caught in my throat again. "What?" I asked "You..." he mumbled, putting his hand up against the glass "You look so... beautiful. So soft" he smiled.
"Knox" I said simply, watching him close his eyes for a moment "Say it again" he said. I felt sick. So fucking sick that he was revelling in my presence Whereas I was drowning in his.
"We need to talk" I said, trying to get what I needed so I could leave "Yeah..." he said, lowering his hand slowly "We do" his gaze trailing down to my stomach I swallowed hard, all the fear, all the nerves, every punch he'd threw me, I pushed it all deep down.
"Where are your parents?" I asked, his face dropped, and he was silent for a moment. "What?" He asked "Your parents, Maddox, where are they?" I asked "Why do you care about him?" He asked.
"It's not for me. You need to tell me" I said, trying to stand firm His eyes trailed all over my face "Just... them?" He asked I furrowed my brows at his question "What do you mean?" I asked.
He smiled "I mean. Do you just want to know about those ones?" He asked "There... there are others?" I asked He cocked his head to the side, thinking...
"I love you Marigold" he said I felt my eyes flicker, the mere notion made me sick "And I want to get out one day, so I'm sorry, but I can't tell you anything. Not here" he said, shaking his head.
I sighed, trying to remain calm "Knox, you... you're not getting out. Not in a few years, not ever" I tried to explain. "You killed... Ruby, you imprisoned me. They know you've killed your parents, they just don't know where to find them. In cases like this, there's a high chance they can charge you without bodies" I said.
He shook his head "As long as I'm on my best behaviour, I'll do a few years" he explained "Then... I'll be with you. You and the baby" he said I tried my hardest not to cry. My eyes stung with the fear threatening to spill from my eyes.
