"Gloria, are you certain you want to remain loyal to the royalty?" Damien asked, tapping his fingers rhythmically on the armrest of his chair.
"I can offer you so much more. Remember, you lost your daughter because of the vampires. And what did the royalty do for you? They gave you the rank of Head Witch but then restricted your use of power to keep everything under their control," he continued, a smirk spreading across his face.
Gloria's brows furrowed in anger. "Damien, leave my house at once because I am going to report you to the King!" she declared firmly.
"Once invited, I can't leave, Gloria, not without securing your agreement to work for me," Damien replied. "Gloria, I will give you the second highest rank if you help me," he added.
