Chapter 155

"The devil wants you." The words kept echoing in her mind. 

Irene had a hard time believing it. Lothaire had left her by choice, and she had decided not to follow him by choice. Why would he want her now? And if he did, why would he do all of this to get her? She couldn't understand. 

Euphorion saw her confusion and went ahead to explain to her what he and Zamiel had found out. Irene listened, both in disbelief and fascination. It was the first time she heard this version of the story. It made sense, yet not. 

So this was all to corrupt her and make her the devil's mate. Not just his mate as a demon. 

All this for revenge? 

"Not just for revenge. He does want you for himself as well." 

She shook her head. She couldn't believe it. He let her children go through hell, all because he wanted her to himself and to have his revenge? All this was because of her? How couldn't she have figured it out? She would have ended this a long time ago.
