JASMINE POV
Mum was young and beautiful. She had me when she was twenty-two. And the goddess had blessed her with beauty and an amazing, ageless body. That's something I always pray for. To an extent, Selene answered those prayers. I looked just like my mom.
"Why aren't you in the office already? Is this how you've been behaving? And your brother lets you do as you please?" There she goes. Nagging again over nothing.
I rolled my eyes as I took a sip out of the glass of juice before leading her upstairs to my room. With the delay tactics I used in the kitchen, Alaric should have had enough time to leave my room already.
"Jasmine. This is past eleven!" She pointed out, and I scoffed.
If only she knew the other reason for the delay... If only she knew my brother had almost fucked me if she hadn't arrived just in time to save me.
"Mum. I already told you before. I..." My words stuck in my throat when I pushed my door open and took in the sight before me.
