We stood there in awe, marveling at how Cecile really fooled us. All because she wanted to get back at Carlos, she had to put my life on the line.
My heart raced faster in fear as I thought of how she was able to link my fate to hers. How on earth she was able to tie my life to hers is what baffles me.
"I know if I don't take this step, you'll end up killing me without thinking twice. Dear Carlos, aren't I so smart to involve your mate's life in this?" Cecile uttered, a mocking smile tugging her lips as she stared at Carlos with scorn.
"If you want to get back at me, you shouldn't involve my mate's life in this, Cecile!"
Carlos fired back at her as he shot her a furious gaze.
"I already told you that even if you try to hide and protect your mate, she's still not safe, didn't I?"
