Rhea crossed her arms, her eyes seething with vindictiveness.
“I shall dispatch an agent to ensure her end, Spare yourself any fury,” Darin
soothed, his hands finding solace on her shoulders.
“Indeed, as you're aware, I've surrendered myself to you. This plea you must
fulfill for me.”
Rhea’s voice took on a beguiling lilt as she nestled her head upon Darin’s chest.
In the recesses of her thoughts, a malevolent grin blossomed, Following Millie's
demise at Darin’s hands, she would endeavor to manipulate Marcus into
