Remi POV Continued

"Now. My announcement." She looked around the table. Making sure she had everyone's attention. "As you all know. Remi. However helpful she's been. Is just a replacement. A placeholder if you will."

My chest went tight.

"You are a replacement. A temporary solution. A concubine if we're being honest about it."

The table went dead silent.

Temporary.

Replacement.

"Mother—" Nero started..

Not now. Later. Focus on right now.Right. but then something shifted.Because the shock was wearing off. And something else was moving in to replace it.Oh, Parrot said. Oh there it is."Don't."Too late. It's here. It arrived. Congratulations we're angry.She was right. I was angry. Actually properly angry.Not the quiet hurt kind. The hot kind.

    Remi POVThomas was still standing there.Shaking. Mumbling. Couldn't string a sentence together."He must have been confused."Anatoria's voice was smooth. Like she hadn't just been caught red-handed."The trauma. The attack. It scrambles the memory. He's a young boy. He panicked. That doesn't mean the attack didn't happen.""He couldn't describe the creatures," I said."He was traumatised Remi. Not everyone processes fear the same way.""He got the eye color wrong.""It was dark.""It wasn't that dark.""Enough." She looked around the table. At the maids. The guards. Everyone listening. "The point is the creatures are getting bolder. That is what matters. That is what people need to know. Whether this boy remembered every detail correctly is irrelevant. The threat is real."And there it was.She didn't even try to defend him properly. Just pivoted straight to the narrative she wanted.Smart. Evil. But smart.Nero stepped forward. Slowly. The way he moved when he was deciding someth

Soon."I didn't sign anything," Nero said."You don't need to. It's already done. She arrives soon. So it would be best if you. Cleared your quarters. Got rid of any. Baggage.

    REMI POV"My turn."Two words. Whispered in my ear five minutes ago. And I'd been waiting. Anticipating. Dreading.Okay maybe not dreading.This is exciting, Parrot said. Very exciting. We planned for this.I had. The dress with the easy access. The lack of underwear situation. All of it intentional.If it helped with his venom. If it kept him grounded. If—Who are we kidding. We did it because we wanted to."Shut up.""What?" Kade looked at me from across the table."Nothing. Talking to myself."His hand landed on my thigh under the table. Just resting there. Warm and heavy and completely innocent looking.I took a sip of wine. Tried to focus on Sophie explaining her cooking process."I marinated the steak for six hours," she was saying. "In a special blend."A blend of what. Dirt and regret, Parrot muttered.I bit my lip to keep from laughing.This reminded me of home actually. The chaos. The full table. My six siblings arguing. Grandma telling stories. Mom and Dad trying to keep or

  • Accidentally Fell For My Ex's Uncle. The Dark Alpha   Chapter 59. Foot Fetish

    Nero POVThis was bad.Not just bad. Catastrophically bad.The steak was. Something.I had spent years in difficult situations. Battle. Venom. Sleepwalking toward certain death. My mother's company.None of it had prepared me for this steak.The outside was the color of coal. The inside was the color of concern.The cornbread had the structural integrity of wet sand. It dissolved on contact with the fork before it reached the plate.The potatoes tasted like someone had described potatoes to a person who had never seen one.And I had drunk medicine that tasted better than this. The terrible bitter tea Remi fed me when I was half-dead. That tea had been an improvement over the potatoes.Everyone was eating. Slowly. Carefully. With the specific facial expression of people being very brave.Sophie was practically vibrating with excitement."Marcus." She turned to him. "How is it?""It's. Lovely Sophie. Really. You've outdone yourself."That blind fuck. Actually complimented her.He ate an

    NERO POV"She didn't listen."Of course she didn't listen.I'd specifically told her. Don't dress to impress Manuel. Don't make this harder.And what did she do?She wore that dress.I was already seated at the head of the table when she walked in.And every conversation in the room stopped.The dress.That fucking dress.Deep emerald green. The exact shade of the forest at midnight. Fitted everywhere. And I meant everywhere.The neckline plunged. Low. Lower than appropriate. Lower than acceptable for a family dinner.Showing what was mine. What should only be for my eyes.She'd done this on purpose.Deliberately.To prove a point. To make a statement. To drive me absolutely insane.And it was working.Manuel's eyes went wide. Then wider. Then he remembered to close his mouth.Too late. I'd seen it. Seen him stare. Seen him look at what belonged to me.The venom stirred. Black lines spreading up my neck.Abel let out a low whistle. "Well damn."I turned my head. Slowly. Looked at him.
