I always knew this part of it wouldn’t be pretty, for there was no fighting against him. Not with what I knew I was capable of and how that could go terribly wrong for the hundreds of innocent people within a two-mile radius of the castle. That tsunami of death I was never about to unleash on this earth again.
So I had to welcome this. Welcome whatever he had planned, for it was about to get very, very ugly for me.
And I deserved every bit of it.
I opened my eyes.
His knees were bent and he was balancing on his heels. I stared at his shiny black shoes. At the bend in the leather right behind the toes. Anything to not look up and see his face.
“What are you going to do to me?”
“What you deserve.”
A warbled breath crept into my lungs and I nodded, my cheek rubbing against the rough stone. “You’re going to give me to Cletus, aren’t you?”
A chuckle, raw, echoed stark against the stones. The sound promising torture of the worst kind in my future.
He leaned over me, his voice low and thick with vengeance. “You promised me one year, littleTatou. You still have six months to serve.”
He stood up, walking out of the room and pushing the wooden door closed on the cell, locking me in.
My head exploded.
The pain instant in my skull.
Overwhelming.
Happy to destroy me.
Chapter6
{ Damen }
Iwanted her to suffer.
Suffer for killing Rodolfo.
Suffer for every year. Every day. Every hour. Every minute.
Every single fucking second that she took Venetia from me.
That she took herself away from me.
Betrayed me in the worst way possible.
Leaving me in a wasteland of the paradise we had started to build together.
Hell, it wasn’t a paradise—I wasn’t wired to live in such a utopia. But it had been real. Something I had never experienced. Something I had grown to want to wake up to, not the drudgery of every single day that my life had become where I was just trying to keep the world balanced enough for the survival of our kind. Trying to keep Venetia from destroying everything around her.
When Ada had been here, it had been happiness. And I had never quite experienced what true happiness was.
We had been a real family for a few fleeting moments.
A family that she had taken from me.
She’d left nothing.
Not a word. Not a clue. Not even a goodbye.
