He watched her play with her cat the day of her mother's funeral. In a way he could say he was jealous of everyone that had her, even that stinky disgusting animal.
But he had always been more jealous of her family. That's why when he threw her mother from the stairs he could only watch with amusement as she collided with the pavement, her body making a sickening crunching sound.
He knew not why he was so attached to the girl, only that she controlled his emotions in a way that made him want to choke her until her last breath. Because he had never felt that way.
His orders had been simple, attain her soul (so very very pure) and leave. And the night his orders had come he had become frozen when the babe he encountered opened her blue eyes.
They made him want to posses her and allow no one else to.
Not even her own family. No one deserved her, no one.
