Chapter 141 What Do You Know?
“No!” My girl announced with a firmness that made my heart sore with pride, only for it to sink in thenext breath seeing the scumbag approach her, and the turmoil he was putting her through. I couldn’thelp but smile through the pain, noting how Charlotte’s resolve remained unwavering in the face ofpure evil.
Evil she shouldn’t even be in a room with, let alone facing, while I remained pinned like a butterfly toa board by some sick and twisted psychopath. I clenched my jaw as I fought against the malevolentpowers that choked me. But it was pointless, despite our earlier triumph. He was too strong- and Iwas smart enough to know that I needed to preserve my energy for when I got free from his invisiblechains.
“What’s so bad about little old me grinding on your daughter? I am handsome, I am sexy! I ampowerful! She will love it!” Astaroth chortled with malice into my mind, his crassness enough to makemy blood boil painfully with rage. I knew he was trying to bait me! Something I wouldn’t allow. I wasstronger than him! If not physically, then I had to be mentally!
“It’s OK, Princess.” I nodded, my voice choked as he sent a new wave of pain coursing through mybody.

“Stop, you are killing them!” Charlotte screamed, pushing past the demon to reach us, but he liftedus higher and out of her reach. A chuckle escaped his lips.
“I mean, I am hoping she takes after her mother, no offence buddy, but… you’re not exactly mytype.” Astaroth’s words sliced through my thoughts like a sharpened blade. “She is strong, beautifuland brave!” He added with respect that irritated me, but not as much as he did when he approachedCharlotte, his hand. landing on her hip tauntingly.
“Get away from her!” I screamed my voice horse and choked by the blood coating my throat fromwhatever attack he had just used to boil my insides. The demon’s laughter echoed in the room, amocking chorus to my disbelief.
“How could this creature be so delusional, so arrogant as to believe that any alpha wolf wouldwillingly allow their daughter to mate with a demon?” Knox bellowed into my mind, my lipstightening, hearing the pain that was eating at him too.
“She won’t be mating him!” I replied because I should be able to protect those I loved! Although, Iknew I couldn’t. Not here, not in this realm! Not like this!
“Not happening…” Before I could finish my sentence and voice my outrage, Astaroth’s menacingvoice cut through my rage, addressing me directly with a chilling certainty. His words struck likelightning, searing through my willpower with a cruel clarity.

“You have no say,” He sneered abruptly, his gaze boring me with malevolent intensity.
“That is where you are mistaken.” I snapped aggressively, because I would be dammed if I alloweda child of mine to spend time alone with a demon, let alone mate one.
“The daughter is not yours; it is Knox’s. And he has already agreed to my bargain.” I felt my eyeswiden in shock, the same expression plastered on my girl’s face as she looked from me to Knox.
“FUCK YOU!” The air crackled with tension as Knox’s roar of denial filled the room, his defiance athunderous echo against Astaroth’s chilling proclamation. But the demon’s words hung heavy in theair, a reminder of the binding agreement that Knox had mentioned he had unwittingly entered into.
“Something small,” Astaroth continued, his voice dripping with malice. “And your daughter iscurrently something small.” I felt a twinge of jealousy eat at me. I had always wanted a daughter,truth. be told, and I resented that Knox knew he had one! The idea of a princess for me to protectand spoil… just seemed… perfect. Although unlike Lilly, she would know how to behave and not bea selfish brat. She would be well–mannered, respectful and raised with grace! She would be like hermother.
Knox’s anger blazed like wildfire as he struggled against the demonic hold. But despite my fierceresistance, I couldn’t shake

“Funny that! Took you long enough!” Astaroth laughed into my head, the sound echoing arounddangerously as the realization dawned on me, a cold dread settling in the pit of my stomach. Wewere trapped! Ensnared in a web of deceit and manipulation woven by the demon before us.
As my eyes met Knox’s desperate gaze across the room, I knew that they would need every ounceof their strength and cunning to break free from Astaroth’s grasp and save OUR daughter from afate worse than death. A life tied to this psychotic piece of shit!

Chapter 141 What Do You Know?
“What do you know?” Astaroth’s voice was smooth as silk,
laced with a dangerous edge that made my skin crawl. “What have. your parents told you aboutKnox’s wolf, Havoc?” Why was this important? Why bring this up now? Charlotte rushed to my side,her body shielding Astaroth from approaching me.
“Stop! Stop with the lies and bullshit! I have said no! We don’t
want your deal!” Charlotte screamed angrily, shoving Astaroth with strength I yet again admired. Iwanted to tell her to stop, but something told me the demon wouldn’t hurt her! He needed her! ORrather the cargo she carried.
“What do you know about Havoc?” Astaroth asked again, his eyes lifting from Charlotte inamusement at her feisty outburst and tantrum. My mind raced back to his childhood, to the whispersand secrets that had surrounded Knox like a shroud. I remembered how Knox was always keptapart, never allowed to shift and train like I was, how our parents had kept Havoc hidden away like ashameful
secret.
Confusion clouded my thoughts as I struggled to make sense of my memories, but before I couldrespond, Astaroth turned his attention to Knox, his eyes glittering with malicious intent.
“And what about you?” Astaroth’s voice was a low growl, a sinister melody that sent a chill down allof our spines. “What do you know about your wolf, other than that he is impulsive and reckless?”
