Sinopse

I watched her from afar ever since she was born. I knew from the moment my eyes spied her that she was the one: the one I needed, the one I had searched for so very long. My careful planning and sacrifices would all be worth it when she was finally mine. She would not disappoint me like the others, for she is Precious.
