I did everything I could—while carrying his babies—to save them both. And this is how they repay me?
“Don’t worry about that. Once she loses the baby, I’ll use it as my excuse to leave her,” Daniel said, his voice dripping with greed and cruelty.
None of them knows I am carrying twins.
How could Karina, the sister I would have died for, become this deceitful, bloodthirsty leech? How could Izaac, the man I loved with every fiber of my soul, so desperately crave freedom from me?
“You know I’m pregnant too,” Karina whispered. “It’s your brother’s. What are we going to do, Daniel? I can’t kill him like you’re planning to kill Karylle.”
I staggered back from the door, my breath caught in my throat. I almost screamed when I saw someone standing in the shadows, dark and brooding, eyes flickering gold as sharp fangs glinted in the dim light.
I raised my trembling hands. “Devon…”
He didn’t move. His heavy footsteps made no sound as he drew closer.
“Devon, don’t do this,” I hissed. "We can't retaliate now!”
I reached for him to stop him, but my weakened body betrayed me. He was a towering force, unyielding, unhearing.
