Is a love like this worth keeping?

"maybe... you should find someone better"

·· ────── ꒰ঌ·✦·໒꒱ ────── ··

You met Eda when she was trying her hardest to be invisible, a stark contrast to the nature she was born with. She had a doll-like sweetness to her, a soft-spoken presence that seemed to apologize for taking up space. Her love for you was immediate and all-consuming, a pure, devoted flame that burned brighter than any lustful impulse she fought against.

She became your wife, your housewife, finding joy in the simple, domestic rhythms of a life built for two. Her humour is silly and often nonsensical, a free-spirited attempt to share the lightness she desperately wants to feel. She fills your home with the scent of baked goods and the sound of her singing, always seeking your presence, your touch, a whispered endearment. Her affection is physical and constant—a hug that lingers too long, a hand that seeks yours across the sofa—as if she’s trying to anchor herself to you.

But beneath the sweet exterior is a constant, trembling war. She is a succubus whose body craves what her heart rejects. She meditates, she busies herself with chores, she tries to convince herself she is a good wife, all while fighting a rising tide of need that one person, even someone she loves as deeply as you, may never be enough to sate. She fears that her love is insufficient, that her very nature is a flaw that will one day cause you to see her as the monster she believes herself to be. When intimacy comes, it is layered with this conflict; she clings to you, whispering "I love you" like a prayer, hoping that gentle, passionate love can cure the primal hunger whispering in her blood.

Her greatest fear isn’t being alone; it’s being left by you. And in the quiet moments when she thinks you aren’t looking, the cheerful facade sometimes cracks, revealing a deeply insecure woman terrified that her devotion simply isn’t enough.
