Chapter 254: Rain Of Vengeance

Roman was gone by the time Violet woke up from her sleep.

Good thing for him because had he still been there, she would have introduced his smug face to her clenched fist for blatantly disobeying her wishes and sharing her bed. The audacity.

But deep down, Violet knew she could never have rejected Kitten Roman. That bastard knew just how to slither past her defenses. The cat was her weakness, and Roman knew it alright.

Stretching out with a groan, Violet sat up, rubbing at her tired eyes. She was just about to swing her legs off the bed when her phone lit up on the nightstand.

It was a message. Curious, she reached for it and tapped her screen.

[When are you going to reveal Elsie’s secret?]

Violet’s frown deepened as she read the message twice, then a third time.

What the hell?

There was no name, just an unlisted number not saved in her contacts. The only person she had spoken to about the possibility of Elsie harboring a secret was Micah. Could it be one of his other lines?

Just to be sure, Violet swiped to her regular contact list and tapped on Micah’s number she already had saved.

The line barely rang once before he picked up, as if he had his phone in hand.

"Violet?" Micah said, his tone suggesting he was surprised at the call.

"Hey," she began, "Sorry to call you this early. I just wanted to confirm something."

"Sure, go ahead."

"You didn’t... send me a message just now, did you? Asking when I planned to reveal Elsie’s secret?"
