Maria tried to hide her shock.

Was it possible that the crazy woman after Diana was the same as Priscilla? They did say that the world was a small world. Was it small enough for both their prosecutors to be one?

She led him by his hair toward the pink king-sized bed and pushed him roughly onto his back.The large mirror on the ceiling reflected Nicholas in a way that startled him. He couldn't believe what he was looking at."Yeah, it shocks people when they see themselves at their most vulnerable," said Ashley amused by Nick's reaction,"Don't worry, you will get used to seeing yourself,"

James would occasionally ask and his daughter would eagerly nod at him.Nicholas watched the whole thing with fear and surprise. His cock had shrank and his body ached from the posture he was in."This is how we get him to do what we want sometimes, other times we use blackmail," Ashely casually said as Katie told a drugged up James to print out the contract.Nicholas stared in horror as he watched the girls control their father. He had known they were crazy from the start but he was just realizing how crazy they actually were.Nicholas had lost track of time due to the fact that he had been on his knees throughout the time James was being used to typing out whatever twisted clause the girls were thinking of.Katie sauntered over to him slowly so that she co
