“I simply cannot fathom what spell he has cast upon you, Mrs. McKay,” Victor spat, his voice quivering with a mix of rage and jealousy. “Why do you stand so resolutely in defense of this underachieving good-for-nothing?” His words dripped with contempt, each syllable a dagger aimed at the heart of his rival.

What was it about this man that had ensnared the affections of the woman Victor desired? Why was this old man—whom he had tirelessly sought to impress—suddenly turning against him? Was he truly so repulsive that he could not compete?

“What’s that supposed to mean?” Victor shot back, his voice laced with mockery. “You’re still just bluffing while you’re the one on the brink of annihilation!”
