Chapter 98
Betrayed by Blood
Kendra stood up and walked towards the window, pulling the curtains apart to allow light into the room, a satisfied smile on her lips. The door squeaked open, drawing Kendra’s attention. She looked up to find her mother walking into the room.
"Mother," Kendra greeted.
Carol didn’t care for greetings. She plopped down on a couch, her eyebrows raised. "How did it go?" she asked directly.
"As expected, Mother. I acted so well, I think even you would’ve been convinced," Kendra replied with a proud smile. "Cain gave me two days, though."
Her mother raised an eyebrow. "Two days? That’s more than enough time, isn’t it?"
Kendra smirked, reaching into her suitcase and pulling out a small vial of black oil. She held it up to the light, the dark substance glinting ominously. "More than enough," she replied. "I only need one meal, one drop, and Cain will be mine."
Carol crossed her legs, eyeing the powder carefully. "If it doesn’t work?"
"It will," Kendra said confidently, her fingers tightening around the vial. "The person who gave this to me is that powerful. She isn’t like Aunt Mel." She replied, remembering the powder she had to apply on her face because her aunt had given it and yet it didn’t work. A total waste of her time. "This is my chance, mother. He’s slipped out of my grasp now and I need him to want me like he did before. Cain won’t be able to resist me. He’ll forget all about that pathetic little maid and finally see me for who I am."
