He offered her everything she wanted, then told her she should have known better than to think he'd sincerely embrace someone as lowly as her. When she stopped meeting his eyes, he took hold of her throat, slowly applied pressure, and watched the light go out of her expression. He relaxed his hands when he got what he needed: she wouldn't try to escape anymore. What he felt wasn't lust — it was something stranger, a craving for possession he intended to see through completely.
