Pierce: "I want her for the same reasons I hate her." Forcing Willow to marry him was just the beginning. Siphoning away her independence is the next necessary part of the process. He needs her to get what he wants, and what she doesn't know can't hurt her. Or in this case, fuck up everything he's worked so hard for. Willow: "I hate that I'm still hoping." She's struggling to become what he wants her to be. Who he needs her to be. And the secrets and lies are suffocating. Everyone has an ulterior motive, and Willow has no idea who she can trust. The only thing she knows for certain? She and her husband are destined to destroy each other.
