Elsa, Tom adored her. He had always had feelings for her. She represented everything true and good to him. He couldn't express his feelings since he was bound by a pact. The darkness was following him, and he knew that if he didn't express his love, he might never get the chance again.

If he doesn't, the blackened devils who are closing in on him will kill him before he can say anything to her. What exactly does he do? Take a chance on everything, or perish in silence.
