"How about we test your device!" Adam snarled with undisguised rage in his voice. His hand lashed out, grabbing Jeremy by the throat and easily lifting him off the ground, his half brothers feet kicking helplessly in the air as he struggled for breath.
Arachne didn't try to dissuade him either. She too was enraged by the mans careless and disgusting words. He didn't understand how the man she had chosen had allowed his own offspring to rot and fester like this.
At first she had agreed to Adam's plan to destroy his family out of curiousity and amusement from the madness that raged within him. However, the more time she spent with him inside of his mind, the more she realized that her connection to him went deeper than that.
She had been young and foolish back then, heading to another mortal world to explore and raise a little havoc. Never did she expect to fall in love with a man. Rather it was more that she fell in love with his own unique 'brand' of madness.
