Tommy’s gaze dropped to his T-shirt before flicking back up to his face. “Your cock is smaller than your brother’s.”

I snorted, sliding out my phone. Three messages from Fred. What did he want?

That doesn’t bode well.

Passing the phone to Tommy, I shot her a pointed look. She studied the screen for a second and took the phone.

Jillian and Evie peeled out of the amphitheatre after her.

I returned to my conditions. “Special condition one, section two. My true mate, Kyros Atagio, will be allowed to kill Trenit and Tynan Tonyi in any way he deems fit.”

My mate’s mental roar of approval drew a smile to my lips. “King Mikael will, of course, be executed.”

I stared at the queen by his side. “You, I am not so sure of.”

In comparison to Queen Titania, she was nothing. Byhumanstandards, she was one of the most beautiful women I’d ever seen. She’d stood in the sidelines as her lover fought for the child of another queen. Though she appeared timid at first glance, her eyes cast down demurely, I was of the opinion that no one could survive Mikael that long without a backbone of steel.

“I killed two of your children,” I said, watching her closely. “Two more will die.”

Her head snapped up, fire dancing in her almond-shaped hazel eyes.

My gaze sharpened. “That’s why I’m unsure if you should live or die. What mother could ever forgive the person who killed her babies—no matter how fucking psychotic three of them are?”

She tried to veil the hatred in her eyes, but it was too late.

“Vladymir,” I called to where he stood as a hulking giant beside Laurel. “How did Queen Zofia treat you and your comrades while you were in her power?”

He bowed low to me. “She was kind to us when she could be, Miss Le Spyre. She treated us like we were people.”

“When her asshole husband wasn’t around, I take that to mean,” I said, pretending to deliberate though I’d already made my choice.

I focused on her again. “You will live, Queen Zofia, because you treated people you considered slaves with respect. Look at me with that hatred in your eyes again, come against me or my loved ones in any way, shape, or form, and I will slaughterallof your children. And you better believe that’s already in the contract and legally binding.”

She wet her lips, eyes rounding slightly.

I pressed my lips together. “I leave it to King Julius’s discretion on how to deal with living Fyrlia royals, but they’re to stay alive.”

Hopefully I don’t live to regret that.

“Special condition two,” I said, reading the contract in my hand. “There will be no further compulsions of Bluff City humans by Clan Sundulus. Section two, the compulsions on the listed names will be removed.”

Lady Treena would be free when Mikael was executed. The compulsion on everyone else would need to be removed willingly.

The clans were growing louder and louder from where they watched on.

“Silence,” the woman from the impartial clan snapped.

They resumed their quiet, not managing to achieve total silence.

“Special condition three,” I continued. “MyVissimoemployees will be allowed to live in nine hundred of the gifted properties for the space of two years at the specified discount rent rates, should they wish.” One year while they worked for me, and another because I’d fucking felt like it.

“Four,” I said, noticing the Sundulus royals were already skimming through the conditions on their own.

“You want Kyros in exchange for the gifted houses,” Safina said, levelling me with a look. It wasn’t filled with loathing like last time, but she regarded me coolly. Hopefully there’d be time to regain the ease we once had.

Kyros pinned me with his gaze as I nodded.

“He will bemine,” I answered her. “King Julius will relinquish control over his son in entirety.” I stared around the table of vampires. “All of you will relinquish whatever fucking claim you think you have on him.”
