Chapter Twenty-Nine

Irresistible Magnetism

When Maia arrived at the compound from New Orleans, Nona and Brigid were already there. She hadn’t seen her half-sisters in a couple of years. She remembered their transition into young womanhood. Brigid had developed early, and Maia remembered how the young girl relished the attention and flaunted her attributes with no inhibitions, as her mother taught her. Now, as Maia sat in the nursery watching them nurse the babies, she realized how perverted the group’s ambitious project was. She’d spent the last two days kicking herself for carrying out the pitiful act of revenge against her father instead of going to Lieutenant Lucier and exposing the whole operation.

Instead, she’d been reprimanded and escorted to one of the Compton planes, flown to the compound, and confined.

Do not pass go. Go directly to jail.

She’d been allowed to see her half-sisters, but nothing she said to them countered the lifetime of programming they’d sustained.

Maia marveled at their startling beauty. Phillip and Cybele Crane’s sons and daughters produced perfect, brilliant, and beautiful offspring, exactly as Maia had. What she saw now was different. Her half-sisters were nursing not their own children, but babies stolen from the warmth of their birth mothers’ arms.

Brigid was pregnant, and not for the first time. A baby bump swelled under her clothes, her figure fuller, breasts heavier. Maia remembered the feeling well. Although she was well endowed, she couldn’t compare to Selene’s obedient daughters. Raw sexuality comprised part of their genetic makeup, inherited from a great beauty and taught by the best of all teachers. Maia didn’t realize until now, looking at the two women, that Silas was nothing more than a pimp with a stratospheric intelligence, and that all his children were nothing more than pawns in the group’s egotistical ambition to populate their fantasy world with their genes.

She pulled up a chair to face the two women. “You know what you’re doing is wrong.”

Brigid switched the hungry child from one breast to another. “How can this be wrong, Maia? Look at them. They’re beautiful.”

“But they were kidnapped―taken from their natural parents who are grieving. Doesn’t that mean anything to you?”

“This is for a greater cause,” Nona said, cradling her infant. “We love doing this. Father says we’re giving these babies part of us. We want to please him.”

“He’s using you,” Maia said. “You’re nothing more than sexual objects to him.” Both women stopped, frowned at Maia, and the worst feeling she ever had in her life shuddered through her. Bile rose to her throat, and she pushed the obscene thought from her mind, unwilling to think the unthinkable.

They, like all the young women here, had been brainwashed by lessons taught from birth. Little girls were created to be goddesses of fertility, boys their gods, and pleasure their destiny. For the longest time, she and Dione did what Silas expected of them―yes, to please him―but they lived different lives than the others. As daughters of one of the world’s richest men, they couldn’t be hidden away and trained as courtesans, like the rest of the women born of the group.
