Chapter 64

Jerome’s face was devoid of smiles; he locked his gaze onto Quintessa’s eyes with an intensity that could scorch, “What if I want it right now?”

Did Jerome know what game Quintessa was playing?

He was painfully aware that what he held in his grasp was exactly what she coveted.

Handing it over easily would mean war in the next heartbeat.

Their gazes were locked, each reflecting the other’s face; their thoughts were seemingly transparent yet enigmatic.
