Chapter 356

• Lily was fascinated and repelled at the same time. She knew her father wasn't perfect, that his dark side was something most sane people feared. But he was still her father, still the rock she clung to when she was frightened. She didn't want anything to come between them and yet she knew she needed to know what it was about him that made her the way she was. She couldn't hide from the beast within.
• "Tell me," she whispered even though she was afraid of what was to come. Another rush of love and reassurance invaded her mind along with a strong sense of pride.
• "When my Rose was hurt by my people, when I thought we had lost you before we'd ever had the chance to know you, I crossed over, Liliana. I stopped dancing the killing edge and embraced it. Blood flowed that day, but more than that, I took a vampire apart piece by piece. I felt no remorse, no constraints, only mindless satisfaction as I listened to Roberto's screams as I ripped him apart."
