Lust (Prey #2)

by Carmen Rosales

“If you show indifference, it drives people crazy because they see that they couldn’t break you. Even if you care, don’t show it because they feed off it. They feed off the fear of emotion. It will be hard at first, but then, like everything else, it will become normal. In their world, hurting people and not caring about how it made them feel is normal to them. If you let it eat you up, it will destroy you.”

Life isn’t a fairy tale you make up in your head or read in a book. Things happen. People use you. They try to break you. But one thing I have learned is that’s the nature of the beast. Evil doesn’t die. It morphs throughout time.

“You can have this back, along with my feelings, my love, my shame, and my tears. Maybe you can give it to the bitches you fuck, the vulture you are, waiting to catch your next Prey.”
