I believe he did care about her. It seems so at odds with his otherwise monstrous behavior and technically inconsistent with a designation as a psychopath but I still think he cared for her. I think he ultimately killed her, as Armand said, as a mercy killing. I think he suspected he would be unlikely to survive all he planned to do to exact his revenge on Armand and that would leave her entirely alone and vulnerable.
