Syn was looking at the door where Queen had gone and a flicker of what looked like pain crossed his features. I noticed the way he looked at her when she was next to him and it made my blood boil.

His eyes remained on her while mine remained on him. What did I do to deserve this?

"Syn why-"

"Shut up," he said. Those two words slapped me across the face and I couldn't breathe. I held a hand over my chest to calm myself, but it was all no use.

"You're cheating on me!" I screamed. I couldn't believe what was going on right now. I dedicated years of my life to this man for him to just throw it away.

"We are not together, Mia," he said quietly, glancing back at the door. My cheeks flamed as I saw him check on her while arguing with me. Why doesn't he care that I'm upset right now?

Queen exited the bathroom with her hair in a perfect mess on her head and her makeup done perfectly. Is that what he liked? Perfection?! Although I wasn't perfect I was a hell of a lot better than her.

She grabbed her phone from the bed and walked right past us to the door. Syn grabbed her arm to try to speak to her, but she walked away from him.

I would've never done that to you.

I wiped my tears when Queen left and I walked to the mirror in Syn's room. He was just going through something right now...maybe experimenting. If it was just that I could deal with it.

As I was fixing my makeup in front of the mirror my eye caught Syn's and I gave him a seductive smile.

"Hey, baby," I said.

"Don't ever call me that again," he spat.

He looked angry- not angry but livid. His eyes were red and his fists were clenched at his sides and I wondered if he'd hurt me. He had never done it before unless I wanted him to...At this moment though, I didn't want it for the pleasure of it, I wanted him to hurt me so Queen could see what type of monster he was.

I wanted her to see me covered with bruises inflicted by him so she would run and he would see that she wasn't the girl for him. I, of course, would stay. Because I loved him. But I've never told him. Maybe that was why he was always so cold with me.

"Syn," I began as I turned to him. "I love you. I am in love with you. Since the day I saw you," I said with a small laugh.

Syn ran his hand through his hair and down his face in exasperation and I shook my head. The man was still trying to hold in his love for me, I don't know what else I had to do at this point to make him release it. He looked at me for a moment and shook his head. "What the fuck should I say to that?"

"That you love me too?" I asked in my sweetest voice. I even batted my eyelashes and pouted so he couldn't resist.

He sat in a chair in his room as he shook his head again. "I don't."

My eye twitched as I repeated his words in my head. My smile dropped and I dug my nails into my thigh when suddenly I remembered something.

It slipped my mind that Syn couldn't feel. Poor thing probably didn't know what it felt like to be loved, but I would show him. I would make him feel my love and he would change. For me.

I sighed and walked towards him slowly, planting myself on his lap. He kept his eyes trained forward and his face was completely blank. I caressed his cheek and he grabbed my hand to stop me. I mentally slapped myself for forgetting that he didn't like being touched.

"Syn, I know that you can't tell me you love me because of your...disposition. But I will wait for you."

His jaw clenched and he finally brought his eyes back onto mine. "No matter how long you wait, I won't love you. I don't even want to."

He abruptly stood up and I slid off of his lap and fell to the floor. I looked up at him and he crouched down to my level. "Stay away from me and stay away from Queen. I want nothing to do with you." I opened my mouth to speak but nothing came out.

Syn scoffed at my silence and stood up and walked right out of the room.

A monstrous sob escaped my mouth at his exit and I felt a rage inside of me that couldn't be tamed by yelling at him. I wanted to hurt him as he hurt me. But I knew he'd never be able to understand the emotional pain he had just inflicted on me. So I would hurt him in the next best way.

Since he was willing to give me up for the human, maybe he cared for her. If he did I would use that to cause him the most pain imaginable. I smiled to myself as I thought of ways I could hurt Queen. As I sat on the cold floor and racked my brain more...I realized something.

If I used her to break him, my Syn would come back to me.

With that thought in mind, I stood up on my wobbly legs and made my way to the door. When I opened it I saw Felix leaning on the wall opposite me.

"Well, that was depressing," he said with a small chuckle.

"What do you want?" I spat.

"The same thing you want," he said with a charming smile.

I crossed my arms over my chest and held my stubborn demeanor but I was interested. "And what do I want?"

"Revenge."

A smile tugged on the corners of my lips as I thought about the word. After the pain inflicted on me maybe it was time for me to give some back. Yet, as angry as I was, I wouldn't just trust Felix so easily. "Why? What do you get out of this?"

He clenched his jaw and took a step toward me. "That man has taken everything from me," he snarled. "Because of him, I can't be King, Mia. I can't even be with Xyla the way I want to. Every single thing, every single plan I've had for my life is in shambles because of him. I want him gone, and when he goes...he'll take you with him."

"Really?" I asked with a grin as my heart swelled.

"Yes, of course. If things go how I hope they do, he'll be so broken and alone that he'll treasure your company. Imagine that. Imagine being the only woman that Syn sees."

I imagined the scene in my head and bit my lip. I could see the two of us moving to somewhere far away, having a couple of kids, and spending the rest of our lives together. I'd show him every single day how grateful I am to have met him. How he saved me from everyone...how he saved me from myself...

"I want that." I nodded. "I really really want that, Felix." He smiled down at me and nodded, tapping the Bible in his hand. "What do I do?"

"Have you heard about Justin Cline's disappearance?"

"The priest that Queen is marrying?" Slut. Ugh! Sleeping with my man when she was going to get married.

"Well...was...marrying," he corrected me. "Syn killed him."

I gasped at his words and shook my head. "No way."

"He did. Xyla told me everything when they got back from their trip. We're not even together yet she still can't keep things from me," he said with a scoff.

I frowned at his distasteful words about Xyla, but I quickly replaced it with a wicked smile. Felix was going to help me get Syn, and that was more important to me than Xyla's feelings.

"I don't understand how this information will get us revenge."

"We are going to lunch with the King and Queen of Heaven. If they find out their beloved future King killed one of their own, they will take Queen and Xyla away and terminate the treaty. Leaving me the thrown and Syn running back to you."

I grinned as I thought about his plan, but I wanted to take it a step further. I didn't want Queen just gone.

I wanted her dead.

And I always got what I wanted.
