Burn
The image of that face was engraved into her mind. She could not close her eyes but see the Death's head burnt into her eyelids. She wanted to scream but couldn't, knowing he was there, and that was perhaps the worst of all.
For as much as she hated the image burnt into her mind, always there whenever she sang, Christine couldn't hate Erik for it nor find it in herself to hurt him. And since he was always there, always listening she couldn't react, couldn't express herself, but only could defend him.
Did this truly make her a demon?
A/N: For me, this is truly how Christine felt towards Erik - none of the all 'She secretly loved him' stuff.
