Epilogue
They underestimated me for far too long. I’ve been patiently waiting for them to see me, but they were going to choose her. I saw the writing on the wall, and I’d be damned if I let all my years of work, and sacrificing my body go to waste.
“Did it work?”
I take in Senator Baker, “Of course it fucking did, Matthew, I told you it would.”
My half-brother grins at the news. Years of planning finally coming together. His onyx-wavy black hair is cut short, framing his conventionally handsome face. Matthew was a mistake made ten years before I was born. One my mother never let our father forget.
She made sure Matthew could never find out who his birth father was. Only being able to dig deep enough to know he was a member of the Fraternitas.
It made the recruitment for getting back at the organization that our father is part of an easier sell. He doesn’t know it’s our father. The idiot thinks he’s an Calloway- the long lost brother of Donald Calloway.
When my mother came to me and told me I’d rule this town, all I needed to do was follow her lead. I hesitated at first, stalling for months until she told me the plan was for some bitch named Emma to marry the boys unless I got my shit together.
I went along with her plan until I found out she was fucking using me too. I was never meant to rule shit. They created some bullshit rigged game for her to win. I was never meant to be in fucking charge. Those fuckers thought I was dumb, but I overheard my mother and Elise talking about how everything was falling into place and Emma would finally give them what they wanted.
So, I made my own fucking plan, one that would take out every bitch in the Selection. I only missed a few.
Everything fell into place when Matthew announced he was running for Senate, I saw an opportunity, and I took it. Men always think with their dicks, and he was no different.
I smirk, thinking back to the night I seduced my older half-brother and slowly manipulated him into thinking it was all his idea.
Fucking idiot.
Lips press to my neck, snapping me from the memory. His hand reaches up for my bra, lowering the cups to reveal my breasts, and flicks my nipple, making me groan. I throw my head back when his mouth wraps around my nipple. His mouth was always my favorite part of him.
I really need to stop sleeping with him, but I have to do this. It’s the only way to keep control.
Matthew has the connection to the company that implanted the chip. If I don’t keep him happy, then I can lose everything, and all he wants is my pussy and the presidency. I’m sure that wouldn’t be the case if he knew he was my brother.
What he doesn’t know won’t hurt him. Plus, I won’t need him much longer. With the chip in Karl’s body, I can use it to make them all do what I want, or he’ll die.
With that bitch gone and the heirs under my control, I can finally get what I’ve always wanted- power. Until I have it, everyone is expendable. So, if they don’t do what I want, I’ll kill each one and never lose a wink of sleep.
I smile, remembering the look on Emma’s face when Rowan broke her gullible-ass heart. She had such hope in those stupid fucking gray eyes. She was so cocky, thinking they’d choose her. I orchestrated that perfectly.
You fucking genius.
“Who’s laughing now?”
“What?” Matthew asks, removing his mouth from my nipple.
I thought I’d said that in my head.
“Nothing. Fuck me already,” I command.
His mouth lifts into a smarmy smile.
“Gladly,” he croons, pulling out his decent-sized dick and aiming for my entrance.
Seeing that he’s lost his mind, I shout, “Condom!”
He scowls, “You promised me a baby, and I’m going to get that now.”
The fucking things you do to get what you want.
He’ll be dead long before he cashes in on that promise. I smooth out my features, rising up and pressing my lips to his mouth before pulling back, “Soon, Matthew. Remember, I can’t get pregnant until I’ve finished this. Only a bit longer, Baby, I promise.”
My answer seems to appease him because he nods his head in understanding and reaches for the foil packet, tearing it open, sliding it on, and thrusts in my unready pussy, as he begins haphazardly pounding into me.
God, sex with him is always lame.
You’d think a man his age would’ve learned how to fuck a bitch.
That’s why I need Rowan. The way he controls me. I feel myself tighten at the thought of Rowan’s hand around my throat and lift my finger to my clit. I need to hurry up. Matthew can never last.
Less than five minutes later and orgasmless, I’m dressed.
Fucking waste of pussy miles.
Grabbing my bag, I prepare to exit his office.
Everything is falling into place. Elise almost messed everything up by shooting Shay and taking Emma, but I was able to salvage a plan.
She was another fucking idiot blinded by power. She didn’t see me coming- none of them did.
Stopping by the mirror near the door, I make sure nothing’s out of place. Just as I place my hand on the doorknob, I feel Matthew grip my arm. I look back at the offending limb and then up into calculating, cold eyes that are a lot like mine.
“Remember the plan. Don’t try and cross me. You won’t like what happens if you do,” he instructs.
I shake him off. “Don’t threaten me, Matthew,” I snap.
His nostrils flare until I soften my next words. “It’s you and me in the end. We just need access to the Fraternitas, and that’s coming. Once we have it, we’ll kill them,” I coo, planting a kiss on his lips.
My reassurance that nothing’s changed relaxes his posture, and he kisses me back.
