Chapter 132: Did You Ever Love Me At All?

“Guilty? You’ve already decided our fate then, my love?” Narcissa yelled as she raged

against the bars and glass of her cage. Leopold glanced across at her and his gaze

hardened.

“I don’t think I have ever been your love, not truly. I think, given all of the evidence

collected and testimony from various parties involved, that I was merely a means to

an end.” He said coldly as he stood from his seat and made his way down from the

dais towards the area where Narcissa and Ada’s cages sat.

Narcissa watched him approach through narrowed eyes and smirked as he stood

almost nose to nose with her, separated only by the glass and iron bars between

them.

“What would you know about my goals or achievements, Leopold, hmm? No sooner

had you decided that you wanted me, did you whisk me away to your palace with the

promise of a happily ever after.” She laughed coldly. “Did you ever stop to think what I

wanted?”

Leopold narrowed his eyes slightly as he inhaled deeply.

“The guilt trips don’t work on me anymore Narcissa so you can drop the act. Your

words don’t seem to hold as much weight as they once did… curious, isn’t it?” He said

flatly. “Tell me… did you ever love me at all?”

As Narcissa cackled wildly in her cage and shook her head in disgust at the man

before her, a voice rang out from above.

“That is not why we are here, Leopold.”

Leopold glanced over his shoulder in the direction of the voice above and sighed
