A name feared by most of the underworld, and hated by all law enforcement personnel. A name that had been reduced to a whimper after the team took him down. They knew his name, but he didn't know theirs, and for once, the power did not lie in his hands. They took down his empire and shook him to the core. His world has fallen down around his ears and yet...
And yet Eliot worries that they did not do enough, that somehow Damien'll escape to wreak destruction and terror on the world again, and the first to die will be the team. That he'll give Eliot a choice: either Eliot kills them himself, as painlessly as he wants to, or Damien will kill them in front of him, prolonging their suffering until they are begging Eliot to kill them.
Eliot couldn't live with that.
Fortunately, he probably wouldn't have to. Damien would watch Eliot's world burn, just as they burned his. And after Damien destroyed everything in Eliot's life that he cares about, he'd come for Eliot.
Then - and only then - would Damien kill him. (Probably pretty quickly, too.)
As much as Damien may want to torture Eliot (a desire Eliot isn't even sure exists; Eliot was, after all, one of the only people Damien ever - well, not loved, but cared about), he knows that the longer Eliot's alive (and the more Damien destroys those Eliot loves), the larger the chance is that Eliot can get away and kill him. Damien knows exactly the kind of damage Eliot could do if he ever got the chance to get revenge. Even with two broken arms and two broken legs, the threat Eliot would pose is too great for him to take that chance.
Eliot wonders idly what method Damien would choose to end his life with. Break his neck? Cut his throat? Put a bullet in his head? It doesn't matter, really, which quick-but-effective method Damien might choose; after all, Eliot has used all of them, on Damien's command.
