“Get out of this room before I have my security throw you out the window, Grandfather,” Sebastian warned softly. Grand Vale laughed, a dry, rasping sound that echoed unpleasantly off the tiled walls.

“If you or any of your loyalists ever come near Elena, Noah, Ivy, or Owen again, I will personally mail those files to the DOJ,” Sebastian declared. The old man stepped back, his chest heaving as he realized his favorite grandson had truly turned against him.
“You’re destroying everything I built for you, Sebastian,” Grand Vale whispered with genuine heartbreak. “You built a prison of lies, Grandfather; I am finally building a real family,” Sebastian replied without a hint of remorse.
