I closed the distance between us in a heartbeat. "Enough..." I said in a heavy tone. "I'm done listening to you gloat like a child."
"It'll never be enough. You tried to take my future from me, and now I'll take yours. The prize is having to rub it all over your face."
"Did you think I wanted any of this? To be on the tail with a sorry excuse of a person like you? Nor thrust into the castle of horrors, where I have to fight for my life every day? Do I enjoy any of this? NO!"
Sloane wasn't shaken by my outburst. She enjoyed it, and I just wanted to claw at her face with my nails.
"Poor Eloise, does life bore you already? It's going to be okay, trust me." She cupped my cheek. "I know Damon will take good care of you when you marry him."
Marry him?
"The Dowager told me not to say anything, but I got too excited." She released my cheek. "So there you have it... your future."
I inhaled, turning away from her as pressure gripped my entire body.
