Desires Die Hard

chapter 14

Melissa only intended to sedate Anya and Evan. She didn’t need an aphrodisiac. As soon as they pa**ed out, she would’ve stripped them of their clothes and left them in bed. She didn’t expect them to actually have sex

The thought of what had happened that night made Sydney’s guts churn with hate every time.

She has detested Anya ever since they were kids. She hated the fact Anya was the daughter of her father’s first wife but she was the daughter of her father’s mistress.

It didn’t matter that her mother eventually married into the MacMillans. Everyone knew and treated her like the illegitimate daughter. They would mock her both openly and secretly and call her a by-blow. She blamed Anya for everything

The years of hate had twisted her mind and soul. It had motivated her to do everything to ruin her sister.
