“Really, Sarah? The men from the Lens family? You've had them all?” Sarah laughed. “Don't be jealous, miss. It was your destiny to meet them all, too.” “Answer me, Sarah.” Anna ordered without changing her voice. “Of course I was. They're so alike, the young ones, of course. I could only tell when it was Allister who was touching me. His hands were wrinkled and his penis wasn't very firm.” “You've been with Adam, Ryan, Max...” “Oh, you think there are only those three? No, my dear. There are many of them. And they're all the same. They liked to blindfold me so that I'd try to figure out whose penis was being shoved up my vagina. Obviously, I never got it right.” “You... I thought you loved Adam...” “I did. I wanted a family, and he's the most decent man in the Lens family.” “Max...” She let out a laugh. “Max?” She asked, still trying to control herself. “Do you know what species you crossed with and had offspring with, Anna? I knew you were a nymphomaniac, bu
Anna looked at him bitterly between her tears. “That woman you just described is my mother. I know that, because minutes before Sarah pushed me down the stairs, she appeared to me, looking sad. And with my physical features, but I knew it wasn't me. I think I forgot about her...” “Wow, I think Sarah deserves what you're going to do to her after all. She used the image of her mother, whom she murdered, to seduce a werewolf. She was... Dishonest and cruel.” Anna looked at him, her face still in tears. “She betrayed Mom before she killed her. I won't be able to live knowing that she walks the earth while destroying lives.” Adonis hugged her and Anna let herself be comforted by the warmth of those friendly arms. ... They arrived back at the mansion, and as soon as Anna had said goodbye to Adonis, she entered the house through the kitchen door and asked for Ian, as there was no one else in the pool. Judith looked at her with fear in her eyes, which set off a warning ligh
Adam wasn't there yet, but she knew he would be soon. Sure enough, he saw her leave Ian's room. She grabbed a beer and sat down. She closed her eyes, not wanting to think about anything else. All she needed at that moment was to shower and go to sleep. She smelled his perfume before she felt his presence. Was he in the shower again, or did he just smell that way naturally? She opened her eyes and he was looking at her seriously, sitting in the armchair opposite her. “I didn't think he'd think I'd kill anyone, for anything. That's not what I wanted to teach him.” “And what did you want to teach him?” “That every act, no matter how small, had consequences. I wanted him to know that in this world, you can't let an act of rebellion go to waste. I know that one day he will become the leader of my entire empire, and his father's too. He can't be spared some things, which aren't for children.” “After dinner you talk to him and explain your way of seeing things.” “Why don't I d
Ian started to get up to go to his room, willing to play his games until he fell asleep, when Adam was firm with him, saying; “Wait, Ian. We need to talk.” He looked at his mother, who nodded, and then sat back down in the chair. He looked at Kate anxiously. He didn't want anyone to hear his father scolding him, but when he realized that she wasn't actually there, he reassured himself and looked at his father. At the same moment, Anna decided that she should let them sort it out by themselves and go to bed early, because the next day, before she called her family, she wanted to spend two or three hours with Sarah. She went into the kitchen and out onto the balcony, where she asked Caricatura to let Adonis know that they would be leaving at five o'clock in the morning, and then went straight to her room. She didn't worry about Ian in Adam's company, as she could see that he seemed to have a magnet for Ian, who listened to him and admired him. It didn't seem to be because of the
Adam stared at him, cold. “I didn't turn back, Alexander. From the beginning, the men knew that your punishment would be to suffer, to think that you would never see your family again, or meet your unborn child. It was a kind of emotional torture. I never planned to kill you. The day I do, the day I sentence you to death, I won't give you time to say goodbye to your family. But you should rethink your loyalty, because Anna made me tempting offers to leave you alive... I almost couldn't resist. But I couldn't accept that she thought she was staying with me for the sake of her life. I want her on my side, but without lies. If I have to force her to make it happen, I will, but first, I'll give her every chance to stay by my side of her own free will. She was willing to change all her plans for you, while she can't do it for me, the father of her child. Bonnie would never be capable of such a generous act.” “So you think I left the table because I was loyal to Bonnie?” “And you
After having no more nails to pull out, Anna felt that she had done enough that day. She warned her that she would be back the next day, and that she was just getting started. Sarah's angry eyes made no difference to Anna, and neither did her tears. She closed the door after turning off the light, and there were already women in the kitchen. She approached one of them and told her what food was to be served to the prisoner. They nodded with fear in their eyes, and Anna left. She had to meet her family. When she got into the car, Adonis started driving. “What she said about our minds being even more connected to Alpha than before is true, Anna. We can feel it. Some celebrated. Why did you do that?” “I don't know what happened to you, Adonis, but it wasn't me.” Anna said quietly. Adonis parked the car in front of the mansion and as soon as he turned off the car, he looked at Anna. “I wouldn't forgive you if you were lying to me, Anna.” “I didn't lie, Adonis. That wo
“Anna... Have you broken up with Sarah?” “On the contrary. I've only just started.” “Kill her, soon. Don't prolong this.” “Why do you say that?” “I know her. We live under the same roof, and I remember the kind of people who were looking for her. Desperate people who had no hope left and were willing to sell their souls to the devil to have their desires fulfilled. That's how they paid her. She marked them. There were very few times when she agreed to receive someone who wanted to pay money for her services. She only agreed to do her spells when the person paid her a small fortune or gave her their soul. And she never saved anything. She spent it all on drinks and young men. But when she received someone who was willing to sell their soul, she was overjoyed. She's no good. And she let herself be taken by you, even though she knew you would come and take your revenge. She has something in mind.” “She stayed here because she had nowhere else to go. And you know that no on
Anna's expression hardened. “I'm not divided, Kate. I'm very sure of my choice!” Kate opened her mouth to say something when Adonis came into the living room, announcing her father's arrival. He had already come in and was in Ian's room. Anna got up hurriedly and ran in. She hugged her father and took him up to his room, promising Ian that she would return it to him in a few minutes. As soon as she had locked the door from the inside, she gazed longingly into her father's eyes, which were a mirror image of her own. “How are my children? How did you manage to save them all from Adam's threat?” Anna reminded herself that she had to pretend to believe that lie. Anna's father spent the next half hour explaining everything that had happened. Anna became pensive. So everyone already knew that Adam had never actually put his family at risk. And knowing that made her heart soften for him. He was so desperate to get her back that he didn't care if everyone thought the worst of hi
