Chapter 0313
“True, but yours will also turn out good-looking… I mean, you’re gorgeous and Travis,
despite his flaws, is hot.” Corrine chimes
“You haven’t seen him without clothes; the guy is a masterpiece,” Letty says with a smirk.
I crunch up my nose “Please stop,” I beg her. We may not be real siblings, but all my life,
he has been my brother. Hearing Letty talk about him in that regard makes me want to
buff.
She looks at me and laughs, but she doesn’t continue on the topic.
I turn to Corrine. “What about you?”
“Maybe you should date Gabe,” Letty suggests. She’s so giddy, it’s amusing. “It would be
so cool if we all dated the trio best friends.
“No thanks. Gabe is a casanova, for heaven’s sake. It’s said he has a new woman every
week. Besides, he’s not my type,” she pauses. “Plus, I don’t have time to date or be in a
serious relationship,” she answers with a shrug.
“So you’re not sleeping with anyone?” Letty asks her.

Corrine takes a moment to answer. She takes Iris from Letty’s arms and cradles her, then
kisses her forehead. It warmed me that both of them loved my daughter.
“No. I haven’t had sex in months,” she finally answers.
“Anyone you like?” I question her.
She averts her eyes. Something flashes in her eyes. It was too fast for me to read, and it
got me really curious.
“Corrine?” Letty must have sensed something too, because she says her name in a
warning
manner.
Her eyes look at us before they shift away again. I don’t know how I knew it, but she was
hiding something. She was debating something.
“Out with it,” I tell her, the words flowing effortlessly out of my mouth. I felt so
comfortable with them. With any other person, I don’t think I would have told them that.
“Fine,” she says, taking a deep breath. “Reaper showed up at my house two days ago.”
Letty gasps in shock, but I just stare at them in confusion.
“Who’s Reaper? I’ve heard Rowan mention him before.”
“Reaper is the king of the underground, a crime lord. He’s a criminal. He’s the one that
killed

My eyes widen at that information. Of everything I thought and wondered about him,
nothing came close to Letty told me. A criminal? Seriously?
“Why would Rowan be in communication with a criminal?” I was genuinely puzzled.
Reaper didn’t seem like someone Rowan would associate himself with.
“Because, one, he was your friend…”
I cut her off before she can finish her sentence. “Why the hell would I be friends with a
criminal and someone that kidnapped me?” I almost shout, but then I remembered Iris.
She was struggling to stay awake.
Letty glares at me, “As I was saying before you rudely interrupted me, Reaper is Ethan’s
brother, meaning he’s Iris’s uncle.”
As if things couldn’t get worse, she had to just drop the final bomb to leave me speechless

I watch sightlessly as Corrine stands up and lays Iris back inside her Bassinet. Once again
she was fast asleep.
“I thought Ethan was adopted?” I ask confused.
Corrine and Letty proceed to tell me everything single thing. It honestly blows my mind.
Who would have thought that the man that killed the man that adopted me, is my
daughter’s uncle? No wonder people always say that it’s a small world.
“So what are you planning to do about him? And what did he want?” I ask Corrine, who by
the look of it is confused about the whole situation.
“Isn’t it obvious? He wanted to f uck” she shrugs. “He was hoping for a no string
relationship until we could both f uck each other out of our systems… As for the other
question, I don’t know what to do”
I’m not promiscuous; I never have been. I’ve been with one person-two, actually-so I don’t
really know what to tell her. Corrine and Letty looked more experienced when it came to
sex.
“You two had a moment when he came to the hospital that day. I think everyone who was
paying attention noticed. There is way that he looked at you. Like he was hungry and you
were his next meal” Letty casually says, her eyes drilling into Corrine’s
