And I’m the Beast.” Since he is alone, with the beast, no one can help him, but also because this is a figment of his imagination, so no one else can see the beast apart from Simon. “Only me” is used as a minor sentence and it seems to be implying that he is the only one who can help him.

For example, the way the phrase is displayed makes it seem as though there is something dark and foreboding about this "creature" of boys.
