The Price of His Betrayal
“Your little tantrum is amusing, Adrian, but unnecessary. He’s alive. Quite well-fed, actually. Much better than you two deserve.”
Adrian let out a strangled, broken sound and shouted louder, “Where is he?! What do you want?!”
Crystal lunged forward, clutching the phone. “Christian,” she sobbed, her voice raw and breaking, “Please, please... what exactly do you want? I’ll do anything. I promise. Please just bring back my baby.”
Christian went silent for a moment on the other end.
Then, coldly and slowly, he replied:
“I just want you, Crystal, to kneel and beg me for all you've done.”
