Charmed and Dangerous

Season Four

When Cole is offered the deal with the Seer.

He knew, after all.

He knew that the Hollow would consume everything.

Knew he had to save Phoebe.

Knew that even though he would try as hard as he could to keep that demonic half of him at bay, keep him on a leash, keep that side of him from hurting someone or Phoebe or her sisters...

Knew it probably wouldn't work.

But he knew, also, that Phoebe would die if he wouldn't. That the world wouldn't survivee.

So he had to.

For Phoebe, you see.

He had to risk it. Even as his darker side begged for it, he knew that Phoebe was the real reason why.

It had always been her.

He was glad, though, that she had a chance to know how much he loved her. That she had a chance to wear his ring.
