Marcellus' POV
*****
Sometimes getting other people to do your dirty work and watching them destroy themselves is far easier than actually doing it yourself.
Okay... Who was he kidding? It was mountains of fun!
After placing Celine under his spell, Marcellus watched from the shadows, monitoring her change in behavior and watching her scheming on how to cause Kaelos and Odessa pain.
The amusing part was that her mother, whom Celine had always shared everything with, was now left in the dark about her most recent plans.
Anyway, on the other side of the chess board, there was Odessa. He's not going to lie... He indeed wanted to manipulate her and get into her head with his magic on that night that she came out to rant about Kaelos.
But... There was a little problem with that.
"She has a protection ring?" Cullen, his assistant, asked him when they discussed their plans while watching Celine from the shadows.
