If Bind the Monster is no longer on the battlefield as the enters-the-battlefield ability resolves, use the power of the creature it was last enchanting to determine how much damage is dealt. Damage is dealt even if that creature is also not on the battlefield at that time.

The enters-the-battlefield ability triggers even if the enchanted creature is already tapped. That creature will still deal damage to you.
