Jada pursed her lips, sharing a loaded look with her brother. “What Valeria said before we left, about there being no end, only eternity. That’s a quote from the Order of Ouroborus.”

CHAPTER 45 BELLA Athena had started to cry for attention, and I rushed off to her. Once I had calmed her down, I brought her out, and Gabriel who’s face automatically lit up at the sight of her, reached out to take her in his arms. She was full of smiles as she went to him. Her tiny hands made its way to his cheeks as he spoke to her lovingly and waltzed around the room with her. While father and daughter were having their bonding session, I excused myself and went to my room and called up Erica. She, too, was just as worked up as me about what had happened earlier. Neo did explain his side of the story to her after we had left. He told her that the reason why he didn’t bother defending hims

Her elbows straddled what he suspected was his file, the cardboard bulging with the weight of his failures, his desires, his guilt. “Soul battled flesh,” she said, her finger tap, tap, tapping the ragged folder as she spoke. “And flesh won.” Miss Venti now sat at the foot of the door, her thighs open.
