Chapter 265

Ava’s POV

What?

Dylan chuckled, tilting his head slightly, eyes gleaming with twisted amusement. “Oh, don’t look so shocked, Ava.” He let out a slow breath, tapping his fingers against the wheel in an almost lazy rhythm, his voice dripping with satisfaction, “Did you really think Damien was invincible? That he couldn’t be stopped?” He scoffed, eyes darkening with something sinister, “He underestimated me. And her.”

My stomach twisted violently, dread clawing up my throat.

I shook my head, my pulse pounding as I tried to process what he was saying, “Crystal-“My throat tightened. “Crystal killed Damien?”

The words felt foreign even as I said them.

It didn’t make sense.

Damien raised her. She had worked with him all this time, stood beside him, protected him. Damien had molded her, shaped her, turned her into the weapon she was. It wasn’t right that he had stolen but she owed him everything.

So why?

Why would she turn on him?

How could she kill him?

And then–another realization slammed into me like a freight train, knocking the air from my lungs.

Crystal had acted like Dylan was in the dark about everything. She made it seem like he had no clue what was going on, like she was playing the game alone, maneuvering through the chaos without his knowledge.

But now?

Now he was telling me otherwise.

Dylan smirked, tilting his head slightly, watching me with the kind of satisfaction that made my skin crawl, “Oh, she hated him.” He said smoothly, his voice almost… delighted, “Despised him, really just as much as he raised her to hate the lot of you. And all it took was a little… push.”

A shiver ran down my spine.

My breath came out unsteady, but I forced my voice to stay firm. “Why?”

Dylan arched an eyebrow, feigning innocence.
