A spark of blank confusion ricocheted across her face, and Selena looked the man in the eyes. "So, you married her and tossed me off? Just like that? It doesn't make any sense."
Tossed her? As if he ever acknowledged her in the first place.
Valeric stood up from the chair without warning and proceeded to leave, however,
"Divorce her and marry me. If you don't, I'll tell your father about her."
Anger sparked in his face so quickly that she barely caught it, but fast after, true darkness descended over his sharp features. He took a step back and snapped his head to the side to get a good look at her face.
"Divorce my wife?"
"Yes!" Her shaky breath came out in short puffs.
His eyes snapped to his brow, rising in displeasure. "Who are you to order me?"
Selena's heart froze into a piece of lead.
