MAX

Max held on to Kyra's sweaty hand, wishing he could do more for her. Her father was lucky to be dead, because if he were still alive, Max would have made it his mission to find him and make him pay for what he had done to his daughter.

The Doomer would also pay for what he had done and for insulting her on top of that, and Max didn't care if he was tried for insubordination after beating the scumbag to a pulp, but he wasn't planning on asking anyone's permission to do it.

"How did you know that she turned immortal because of you?" Toven asked.

The Doomer smiled for the first time since the interrogation had started.

"I put two and two together. Regrettably, Kyra escaped before I realized what had happened. I saw the footage from the surveillance cameras, and I knew that I hadn't given her any drugs that could have made her that strong. Naturally, drugs were the explanation I gave the bewildered doctors of the institution, and they had no choice but to accept it. I've been searching for her ever since, and then when I finally found her, you showed up out of nowhere. What were you looking for?"

"You are not the one asking the questions," Kian said. "We are. What about Fenella?"

Toven had to repeat the question since Kian's commanding voice wasn't enough to compel the Doomer to answer.

"That was another fortunate chance encounter. I took it as a sign from Mortdh that I should father immortal sons of my own, and then Kyra came right to me, after I'd looked for her for over two decades, to the facility I was using for my project, and I knew that I'd read the signs correctly. That was what Mortdh wanted me to do, and he sent two immortal females to me to become the mothers of my immortal sons."

Kyra's hand tightened around Max's. "What if I'm pregnant?"

"You're not."

"How can you be sure? Jasmine told me that immortal females ovulate on demand."

He turned to her and cupped her cheek. "Conception is rare, and it happens with the right partner. The monster on the other side of the glass is not that."

She let out a breath. "I hope you are right, and I hope that's true for Fenella as well. She doesn't deserve to carry the devil's spawn."

Max couldn't agree more.

"Why did you keep them sedated?" Kian asked.

This time Toven didn't need to repeat the question.

The Doomer shifted in his chair as much as the restraints allowed. "I injected them with every fertility drug I could get my hands on. I assumed that they were on some sort of contraceptives, so I found what could be given to counteract them, but neither conceived. I remembered Mortdh's teachings about the wickedness of women, and how they need to submit to breed, so I roughed them up a little. Nothing too excessive, just enough to show them who was in charge."

"I'm going to kill him," Max hissed. "I'm going to tear him apart with my fangs until there's nothing left of him to regenerate.
