“And I hope you never have to.”

“What’s her name?” I ask quietly.

“None of your fucking business. But she’s not a Parker if that’s what you’re so worried about. There’s no one to challenge you for Julius’ millions when he dies. My little girl is and always will be a Creed, and there’s nothing she’ll ever want or need from any of you that I won’t be able to provide for her one way or another.”

“Davina, why are you here?” I ask.

She laughs as she shakes her head. “Isn’t it obvious? I want you to see that no matter how hard the Picture, Perfect Parker Family tried, you didn’t, couldn’t, and never will break me.”

“Noted.”

I see the anger flash in her eyes and I do my best not to smirk. She looks very much like the little girl that would fight with me in the mornings after with Daddy.

“Is there anything else I can do for you, Davina? I need to go back to the ballroom.”

She smirks as she pushes away from the table and closes the gap between us, running a finger down my arm. My body shivers at her touch and I swallow the lump in my throat.

No. No, no, no.

“Just to make you feel the way thatDaddymade me feel before I pop in and say hello to him.”

“Davi—”

Her hand wraps around my throat as her lips crush against mine. I can feel the hatred emanating from every pore in her body, and I’m intoxicated by it.

“Shh,” she whispers when she pulls her lips away from me.

Davina uses the hand around my throat to turn me and force me back against the table.

I want to fight her, but I want tofeelher too. I want to know what the fuck it is about her that enraptured my father so goddamn deeply.

“You want me, don’t you, Emily Parker?” she asks in a thick voice as she runs a hand under my dress. I can feel her fingers as they grip the waistband of my panties and starts to roughly pull them off.

She holds them to her nose briefly, eyes closed, inhaling my scent before tossing them to the side.

Yes.

“No.”

“Then why is your pussy so wet?” she coos as she pushes the bottom of my dress up, exposing my bare cunt.

Closing my eyes for a moment, I tell myself that the sooner it’s over, the sooner she’ll leave.

“Yes,” I hiss as her fingertips trail my slit.

“Then let’s play,daddy’sperfect, princess.”

Fuck.

Chapter 13

Davina

“Did Daddy finally fuck you like you always wanted?” I ask Emily as I spread her legs open, then gently run my hands over her inner thighs.

“No,” she breathes out. “I never wanted him to.”

I arch an eyebrow. A confession I hadn’t counted on, being spoken to me by a sinner hoping for penance from the one person who can absolve her.
