Badass in Disguise (Shadow) novel Chapter 356

Chapter 356

Jade’s POV:

I stared at SPECTER, revulsion crawling up my spine.

‘I don’t like seeing your face wearing other people’s features,” I said, my voice cold and flat

SPECTER’s mouth twitched into what might have been amusement.

“Actually,” he corrected, “they’re wearing my features.”

“Where’s my person?” I asked, cutting straight to business. No point wasting time with this psychingatt

“In such a hurry?” SPECTER leaned back in his throne–like chair. Don’t you want to catch up fire?

I met his gaze without flinching. “Catch up? We have nothing to talk about.”

His expression shifted to one of exaggerated disappointment. I see…

He turned his attention to a figure standing silently to his right. Perhaps you want to talk to her?

My eyes tracked to where he was looking. Shadow clone stood motionless.

“Just one?” I asked, my tone unimpressed.

SPECTER tilted his head. “Hmm?”

“At most eighty percent genetic match, plus the inherent flaws in cloning. This hardly seems like you are canti smiet city. expected at least a clone army–hundreds of Shadows, hundreds of Dusks. This setup makes you look carte… gathhet.

That hit a nerve. I could see it in the slight tightening around his eyes.

I suddenly snapped my fingers as if remembering something. “Oh, I’m sorry–I forgot that I burned your clone army in their incubat chambers before they could be born.”

His jaw clenched ever so slightly.

“You must have been devastated,” I added, twisting the knife deeper. Losing all those children.”

SPECTER recovered quickly, forcing a smile. “I was indeed upset, but as you can see, I still have one child left. He gazed at the Shadow clone with disturbing affection. “Whether Shadow herself or her clone, she’s always been my favorite child”

The clone turned to him with empty eyes. “Father.”

The word sent a chill through me, and I felt my face harden involuntarily.

“Good girl,” SPECTER responded, his tone sickeningly paternal.

Ad his signal, footsteps echoed through the hall. Two figures emerged from a side entrance–one being dragged, the other doing the drazzing
