“Every single one of these scars conjured a bloodthirsty animal in me who has never been fed. They make me want to find anyone who has hurt you and kill for you so fucking brutally that no jury on earth would pardon me of my crimes. So maybe I was always a condemned man when it came to you, Rosa. I would have ended up behind bars one way or another, it just would have been for murder instead of grand larceny.”
