Demonic Pornstar System novel Chapter 735

Chapter 735: Natasha Volkov

"My name is Natasha Volkov. For the past three years, I have been in a relationship with Magnus Ashborn. Sorry." She corrected herself. "Magnus Morvane."

— 44xStorm: THREE YEARS???

— SinnerDevotee: Hold on!!!

— BastetThrone: A mistress. He had a mistress while married to Vespera Ashborn.

— GigaAsh: bro this man is cooked beyond recognition lmao

— NyxWife4Life: While married to THAT woman he was sneaking around with an Instagram model??? Men are unreal

— DarkLancer99: Why are you blaming all men for one guy being trash? Women and sexism, tale old as time.

— NyxWife4Life: Yeah, yeah. It’s always One Guy who’s at fault and there are millions of him...

— BastetThrone: Kai would never. Say it with me.

— DarkLancer99: Here we go...

— NyxWife4Life: Kai is the only man we can trust...

— GigaAsh: Doesn’t he have five chicks lol?

As the chat descended into its usual gender warfare, Kaiden’s expression hardened.

"Three years," Kaiden repeated as his free arm - the other holding the phone with Natasha’s face visible in the call - tightened around his mother’s shoulders.

Three years. His father had been sleeping with another woman for three years, cheating on his mother. Kaiden knew better than anyone how loveless that marriage of theirs was, but still.

Despite what the general public might think, his mother was still a human being capable of being hurt.

Kaiden looked down at Vespera.

She didn’t open her eyes.

"Are you okay?" he asked softly.

Vespera was still. The smile had not left. Her breathing had not changed. She was resting against her son’s chest with the same easy warmth she’d worn since the shadows cleared, and either she had not heard what Natasha said or she had heard it and it had not touched her.

Then Vespera opened her eyes.

Red. Deep, ancient red, the color of dried blood in low light. They fixed on the feed where Natasha’s face filled the frame. Big, innocent eyes, mascara tracking, silk robe loose at the most ideal of spots. Everything about the woman was soft and warm and approachable.

Vespera stared at her.

On the other end of the call, Natasha stared back.

The color drained from her face so fast it looked like someone had pulled a plug. Her lips parted. A bead of sweat rolled down her temple, then more followed. Her throat worked around nothing. The big innocent eyes went very, very wide, and for three seconds Natasha Volkov looked like a woman who had just remembered that the wife existed and the wife was watching.

Vespera’s expression did not change. She studied the woman the way one studies a stain on a tablecloth. Briefly, without interest, already thinking about something else.

"I am not surprised," Vespera replied to her son after a few seconds of silence, and her eyes closed again. She said nothing more.

Alice’s head rose from behind Kaiden’s shoulder.

"Oh, I have a LOT to say about this!"

Kaiden glanced backward. "Alice-"

"No, cruel big brother, let me talk! I’ve been very quiet!"

That much was true, because she’d been busy rubbing her nose in his hair or just generally basking in the reality that she could appear by his side from today onwards whenever she so desired.

Kaiden’s mouth twitched at the corner but he didn’t stop her, and Alice took that as the permission it was.

"Listen up, men and women who need to hear the truth of adulthood!" Alice turned to the camera and the teenage girl released wisdom many were not ready to hear.

"There is NOTHING wrong with having multiple lovers if everyone involved agrees to it! If you have a big enough heart and everyone consents, then love is love! Look at big brother! Every single one of his women turns smiling and giggly the second he walks into a room because he treats them with respect and honesty!"

She was gesturing wildly from Kaiden’s back, one arm still hooked around his neck.

"They say the son will surpass the father." Alice’s voice dropped. "But surpassing means they were ever on the same wavelength! They weren’t! The distance between my brother and that hideous thing is so vast that the universe would need to invent new units of measurement just to quantify how far apart they are! Scientists would weep! Mathematicians would retire! You would need to fold space itself just to get them in the same sentence!"

She jabbed a finger toward Natasha’s feed.

"Look at what Magnus has! A wife he cheated on, and a gold-digging, Insta slut-"

"Alice."

Kaiden’s voice was low and immediate.

Alice froze.

"That’s enough."

"But-"
