"TELL ME YOU DIDN'T." Warrick almost cried as he asked his brother one last time, "Tell me you didn't sleep with her," His loud shout turned into a heartbreaking whisper, Madame Noella didn't move after glimpsing through her son's eyes. She knew it was too late to stop him now. She was watching both of her sons fighting over me, but she didn't even know about her husband's dirty intentions. "You tell us what happened, did Luke sleep with you?" Lord George took a step near me and questioned, he made it seem like he was doing it to make his sons stop fighting and the truth was otherwise. He wanted to know if that was true, and now that his son Luke has admitted it in public, George has lost all his chances to force himself on me. "We did it," I admitted, my throat feeling dry as the words left my dry lips. I had no courage left to lift my head and stare into Warrick's eyes, I felt guilty of betraying Warrick. The smirk on Prince Luke's face was a piece of evidence that now I was bound to please him right in front of Warrick's eyes and he wouldn't be able to do anything about it.
