Nicolas suddenly couldn’t bring himself to meet Athena’s gaze. Her words laid bare the thoughts he’d been concealing in his heart.

Athena continued, “You would have sold me to Fermin without a second thought, even if it meant making me his mistress. You’d never think I would be wronged that way. Instead, you would say that I have gotten the best deal of my life.

“In your eyes, I’ve never been a real person, just a commodity to be traded at the highest price.

“You’d stop at nothing to squeeze every last drop of benefit, just to cling to your laughable title as heir apparent.”

Athena’s smile grew even more brazen as she stepped forward, towering over Nicolas. She sneered, “You fancy yourself a genius, cloaked in your heir’s mantle and lording it over everyone. But let me tell you this.

Nicolas shrieked impotently, unable to produce a single shred of evidence.

Athena–watched Nicolas fall apart, sneering inwardly. “Even your so–called affection for Willow was for personal gain. I refuse to believe you’d go to such lengths to protect someone who shares no blood with you.”

Nicolas froze in place, his eyes wide with sheck as fie gasped desperately for breath like a stranded fish
