CASEY felt like his head was about to explode. He couldn't comprehend the things the duke was saying. He understood the words one by one, but when combined together, it felt like he was hearing some alien language.
Emmy was alive and always had been? They faked her death? Emmy had twins?
Each one of those was like a fantasy, a lie the duke concocted. He wanted to retort, tell the other how much of a liar he was, but when he raised his head and saw the duke's expression, he knew the other was not lying. That everything he said was the truth.
What did that mean?
Hundreds of thoughts swirled in his mind. But all he could focus on was one thing - that Emmy was alive. His sister was alive!
Upon that realization, he should have felt happy. But the only thing that filled him at this moment was anger. Blind, hot rage that filled every cell and every fiber of his being.
