Oh, your feedback totally made my night.

I loved how Adam could feel his need, his thoughts. Gulp - too perfect.

That's kind of what I was thinking made it just inevitable? All his most instinctive functions he can't even do on his own anymore, not even feel, even if his body still needs it; Adam can feel them and is the only person who can control them. It's why no one's ever really recovered from thrall; some things you don't get back once you give them up.
