My life would’ve been completely different if I hadn’t given in to him and married Selene two years ago.

When my father noticed my silence, his expression darkened. “Come to my study,” he ordered.

I followed him, aware of my mother watching us quietly. I wanted to ask her what was going on but held back. Whatever it was, I’d hear it from him soon enough.
