CHAPTER 25
Anonymous POV
I walked through the hallway of my dark castle, a smile on my face. Everything was going according to plan Everything was going my way, and I couldn’t help but he happy
It’s been a long time since I’ve been happy. A long time since I’ve been this excited about anything can’t wait for everything to unfold and for every piece to fall into place.
It was so easy to destroy what my mother had planned. So easy to get in the way of the fate she had in store for them.
I won’t lie, I thought it would be hard. After all, my mother had planned everything from the beginning. She had set up measures to ensure that her will would be carried out. I thought it would take more to ruin that, but it was as easy as stealing candy from a child.
A laugh escaped my mouth, and it’s cold even to my own ears. This is what she did to me. This is what taking what’s mine turned me into. Someone heartless and cold. If only she had let me be. If only she had accepted my choice, then I wouldn’t be here, I wouldn’t be this cold, and I wouldn’t be trying my hardest to destroy my own sister.
Ah, my sister. My mother’s pride and joy. My mother’s last hope. She was always the perfect, dutiful daughter. The one who did everything Mother wanted without questioning. She was basically the goody–two shoes. Always obedient, always doing what’s right, always responsible, never having a spine, and, as always, weak, because she depended on mommy dearest to do things for her.
There was a time when I loved her. We were twins, but I was the oldest by a couple of minutes. She was my baby sister, but now I hated her just as much as I hated our mother. She proved how weak she was by siding with our mother instead of me. She, just like Mother, is now on my shit list. I’ll destroy her. I’ll destroy her life, and then, when I’m done, I’ll destroy our mother.
I balled my fist as the familiar anger washed over me. I wanted to dance in their misery. I wanted to see them beaten, weakened, and destroyed. I wanted them to suffer, as I have for the past few centuries. I’ve been stewing on my revenge for decades, and now is the time to execute it. I won’t stop until I have what I want, and my so–called family is nothing but a bitter memory in the back of my
mind.
Resuming my walk, Fimagine what I’ll feel when both of them are on their knees, begging me to spare them. Of course, I won’t, but just having them on their knees will be satisfying.
I walked towards a set of magnificent doors with snakes carved into them. Upon opening them, I’m greeted by two thrones. One black, one red. I walked towards the red one, then sat down once I got to

- it. Turning, I stared at the one next to me. My heart aches seeing it empty; he should be here with me. Ruling by my side.
I’m pulled from my thoughts when my door opened and my second in command walked in. He comes towards me and then kneels down before my throne.
“My Queen,” he bowed in respect.
“Rise”
He rises up and stares right past me, since it’s disrespectful for him to stare directly into my eyes. He, despite being highly ranked, isn’t at the same rank as me. Plus, doing so would push my beast forward, since she’ll view it as a challenge, one that she’ll definitely accept. She’ll end up triumphant, and he’ll end up in the infirmary.
“Any news for me?” I asked, adjusting myself in my seat.
“Nothing has changed, your majesty, but things are unfolding as you said they would. Everything is going according to plan.”
I’m a bit irritated by his answer. I already knew that. I wanted him to tell me something I didn’t already
know.
“What about my mother and sister? Are they still separated?” Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.
I made sure that they were separated. That way, they couldn’t join forces. That wasn’t possible, though, because I was more powerful than them. I’d made sure of that when I sealed my mother’s
powers.
“Nothing has been heard about them; we truly believe your mother is dead. Her power is her essence. Her life source. Given that you took that from her, it’s a given that she probably didn’t survive.”
I nodded at that. I thought the same thing, and to be honest, I didn’t give a shit that she was probably dead. I didn’t feel a thing for her. Not after what she did to me… But then again, I know my mother, she wouldn’t die so easily. That’s why I have a backup plan.
As for my
sister, I still needed her. After her usefulness ends, I’ll end her. No one who contributed to my pain will survive.
“And our little hybrid project?”
“It’s going perfectly well… Soon enough, we will have an army large enough that you won’t have to lift a finger to cause havoc in the supernatural community. Hell, even with humans,” he said with a small smirk.

40%合。
There was a reason I liked him and chose him as my second–in–command. He loved chaos, and, just like me, his family didn’t really accept him for the bloodthirsty maniac he was. Just like me, he was marked as the black sheep of the family because he was rebellious.
I leaned back on my throne and grinned. “Good.”
Taking the scepter near my seat, I feel the power rush through me,
I turned to the seat next to me with a small smile. “Soon, my love.“”
