* BeastAndBeauty: Victor is a huge beast of a man who develops a relationship with the beautiful, former prom queen, Bonnie Hale.
** Like most characters, Victor's appearance [[DependingOnTheArtist varies]]. In many cases, he's depicted as very handsome. But in other cases, like here, he's drawn more hideous to play up his beastly or monstrous nature.
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Victor genuine loves Bonnie. He is not a good guy or an anti-hero in this story. He's just as evil and sadistic as ever. He just shows he's capable of love and cordial relationships despite it.
* FailureKnight: Victor spends then entire mini promising to protect Bonnie & keep her safe, but in the end he fails both & has to mercy kill her himself.

Ruth reveals she knows some of his hobbies, likes, dislikes, and what he likes in bed. The other brothel girls also seem very fond of Victor, greeting him excitedly when he first arrives.
* GeniusBruiser: The series does well showcasing Creed's diversity. He's every bit as brutal & savage as always, causing lots of damage. But his perceptions & intelligence shine through as well.
* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: The last part of the page quote is a perfect example.
** Averted during the sex scene with Bonnie. We see them do some heavy kissing and moaning (growling in Creed's case), afterwards the moon going down outside of the apartment to show the time passing as they have sex.
* InsecureLoveInterest: Victor shows this when he calls to speak to Bonnie. She asks if they can just forget everything & go away together, causing Victor to question her and asks if she really wants to be with him.
* MoralityPet: Bonnnie for Victor.
* PetTheDog: The story is famous for being the most overt & detailed example. In the past, Victor had flashbacks & notes of loving his mother & caring for Zauber (Mystique) in Germany. But this is the first story that goes into detail about his relationship with a woman, whom he's shown to genuinely care for.
* SatelliteLoveInterest: Given she was introduced and killed off here, Bonnie was not meant as a mainstay. Her main thing was her feelings for Creed, and the effect she had on him.
