It was something he did not expect at all, like at all… Benjamin had his reasons for it, his whole life was built up to take revenge and help his people but Linda?
Nah, it was so unexpected that James couldn't even speak.
The Justice Minister, someone who vomits when she sees blood and can't handle the reality of the world James lives in, suddenly wants to become a Bellini, a part of the family built upon death and blood.
She had no reasons for it that James could think of. Well, only one… that she was trying to save herself from him. Yeah, if there were any reasons, that was it.
"I want to be part of your family, and what I want from you is to help me become the president."
No actual fucking way she said it. James felt like he was in a show or something, full of plot twists and tangled political moves, because out of nowhere she wanted to become a president?
Not just that, but she wanted to become one with the support of James… what?
