From the online comic called the “The Secret”, made by SwainArt, Dominique's obsession stems from a deep fear of abandonment rooted in her past, mainly from how everyone at school like her sister more than her, how they thinks she’s prettier that her, and how her ex-boyfriend was dating her to get to her sister, whose name was Charlotte. When she caught her brotheron in an “act”, she slowly manipulated him into , eventually having a secret loving relationship with him. She has always felt an overwhelming need to “protect” her sibling, which evolved into an unhealthy dependency. Her inability to process her emotions rationally leads her to believe that control is the only way to keep them safe and close.
