Eternal Thief

“You were never here to meet with your brother. Instead, you were here to seek your childhood sweetheart!”

Alina was bewildered by Eva’s blunt declaration before a tingle of redness surfaced on her pristine skin and retorted, “Y-YOU… don’t sully our r…” Her words came to an abrupt stop as her face turned even redder. 

Eva smiled, “What? Continue. You were about to say relationship, not kinship, right? See, even if you don’t want to admit it, deep down in your heart, you know what you want. It’s just that you are too scrupulous, and your princess ego is your biggest shackle. 

“It’s always the same with the woman like you who want a man to take the lead and then act all difficult and play hard to get. But when someone like me, who is completely unscrupulous, comes who doesn’t care about ethics and takes your man, you think of me as shameless and act all possessive. 

“But I don’t think I’d done any wrong. I don’t hesitate when I found a man I love, and now he loves me back. Sometimes we should take a leap of fate. Just like I did when I allowed him to have more wives, but they need my sole approval before they can call him their husband.” 

Eva pulled a devilish smile, “Another reason was, of course, his obsession with his so-called sister. Even if he doesn’t admit it, I know he deeply cares about you as kin, but it was only until you all grew up, and you are not his real sister, to begin with. 

“So, I knew something like this might’ve happened and just allow him to take more wives, not just one more. As long as he is happy and knows who the main wife is, I will accept his wishes. This is how much I love him. 

“Now tell me, Princess, do you want to play hard to get before he has another wife? You might know my husband is extremely charming, and he can capture a woman’s heart as long as he shows that blasted face of his, especially the women like me from certain races. 

“You can wait and see what happens when another woman like me enters his life, and trust me when I say this, as cold as he may be, he is the biggest softy I’ve known. If a woman moved his heart like me, he would not hesitate at all…”

Ace’s perplexed yet embarrassed voice sounded at this moment, “You do know I’m listening, right?” 

“So, what if you’re listening, I just state the fact. She’s simply acting too high and mighty while we both know she’s just a girl with a princess ego imbued to her very core. 

“If you want to really make her stay, then you have to break that ego and let her break free from her shell. Besides, following you mean she will also fall in the path of a thief, and you know far better than me that she is not a thief material.” Eva stated matter-of-factly. 

ραndαsnοvεl.cοm “But not like this! You’re literally arranging my marriage here, woman!” Ace retorted with a tingle of helplessness. 

“Humph, I’m allowing it as per our agreement. Now you better be grateful and remember your promise. If you have any more women you like, you can send them in my way, and I’ll judge myself if they are quality to be my little sisters!” Eva arrogantly declared. 

“Heh, you, crazy devil. Just don’t push those feelings on her. She just wanted to meet you, maybe because she was concerned about her sister-in-law.” Ace sheepishly stated.  I think you should take a look at ραΠdαsnovel.cοm

“What are you pretending to be, blind? Look at her. Even I can feel her true emotions starting to appear the moment I talk about another woman. Hehehe…” Eva retorted, but in the depth of her eyes, a hint of helplessness was present as he looked at Alina, who was breathing heavily. 

‘In the end, she indeed loves him, and here I was hoping this sister of his would be just a sister. Well, it’s better this way since now she knows who’s the first one. But after her, another woman…’ Eva’s eyes become icy cold. 

Alina, on the other hand, was in an utter mess as Eva’s words hit her where it hurt the most. She was indeed completely fit with the former category that Eva described, and despite not wanting to admit it, she knew Eva had said nothing wrong. 

Furthermore, what truly shook her was the last sentence. She didn’t doubt Eva for a second that Ace was kind no matter how much he turned into the sky stealer. He was still kind towards the people who showed him kindness. 

‘If another woman like her comes and does something crazy for him, he might also accept her…’ This was the biggest fear installed in her heart by Eva. 

If before she didn’t think a woman like Eva existed who neither had a moral compass nor any qualms in taking the lead and adding Eva or her appearance in the mix, who can resist having such a woman, especially when they already had their other wife’s blessing? 

She also didn’t doubt for a second that Ace was just ordinary and won’t catch another woman’s interest so easily. Instead, he was devilishly handsome, and with his special charm, he was a chick magnate. 

Now, if she still has not made her priority straight, then she might not get another chance like this ever. 

Alina’s haggard expression started to return to normal as her state of undergoes a startling change as if she had finally come to terms with something. 

She took a few breaths before deadly calmness returned to her face, and Eva smiled in satisfaction as if she was pleased with this result.

Although it looked like Eva was doing all this to destroy Alina, she was destroying her empty arrogance and her princess pride. 

Because here, it means literally nothing, for this was the house of thieves, and there was no place for norms and hesitations. 

Besides, as long as that cutthroat devil was here, she won’t let anyone affect Ace’s ambition and will become his inextricable shadow!
