Cindy looked at Diana's face from the rearview mirror in worry. Because she never expected to hear Diana claim that the current orphanage system was working. She knew what Diana had been through in her childhood better than anyone. She knew that both the system and society had failed Diana time and again. But for Diana to agree that the very system that failed her was working would have been a very hard pill to swallow.

So, she was concerned about Diana. Especially knowing how excited Diana was about this project. She cannot imagine what Diana would be going through learning that she was unknowingly about to commit the exact crime, that the Circle did to her, against the kids she wanted to help. Now something like that can mess with a person's mind.

"Cortney, I know you feel disappointed but lay off her. She is more disappointed than you," Cindy asked Cortney to stop pestering her friend/boss.

"I-I just feel that giving up now would be a waste of a beautiful idea that has brought us all together in this car," Cortney said, implying that it was fate that had brought them together in the car to explore the idea Diana proposed. To work on it and fix it.

"..." Cindy did not know what to say, as she could also understand where Cortney was coming from. Even she felt like her. But the answer was as bright as the sunniest day, only they were too reluctant to see and acknowledge it.

The atmosphere in the SUV was no longer that of a group of friends or business partners heading for breakfast but of a group of colleagues heading for a funeral. Everyone was down in the mood. It was as if disappointment had become the theme of the car ride.

Even the driver of the car, who had the privilege of hearing his boss' genuine care for society felt hopeless about the problem. He was proud that he was working for such people but he felt helpless knowing that even such powerful people were clueless against the problems plaguing the society.

"Arragh!" Cortney screamed in frustration and felt helpless about improving on Diana's idea, she could not think of anything. What was more frustrating was the fact that sometimes she could not help but find herself wondering whether the kids losing a little freedom but growing up as healthy adults who contribute to society and live more than their average life expectancy was worse than them living and suffering on the streets worrying about thier next meal.

But thinking back to her time on the streets and in the orphanage, she wondered if she was given the choice between the street life she was leading and the idea Diana proposed. She would not hesitate to choose Diana's idea. She would rather stay well fed on a clean bed than be always hungry and sleep in the dark alley not knowing if she would live to see the next sunrise.

However, the problem was she was no longer that desperate Cortney. She knew the cost of choosing Diana's idea. If she were given a choice to change her past, honestly she would change nothing about it as her past was part of her, it made her what she was today. She genuinely loved her current self and in peace with her past. Yes, she would have loved to have a normal family growing up but this was her life.

Therefore, Cortney understood that the young her might choose Diana's idea driven by her desperate circ.u.mstances but she would grow up to hate or not like how her life turned out and even start to resent the idea Diana proposed and think that she would not wish it on others.

Cortney struggled in her mind, trying her best to think of a way to salvage the idea. And then she finally realized she was stuck, going around in a circle. She kicked Wyatt's seat again in frustration, then she jumped out of her seat and sat on Wyatt's lap. She put him in a choke hold, burying his head on her vulgar cleavage, she yelled, "Bloodette, bind him tight such that he cannot break free."

Red tentacles extended out of Cortney's back, entwining around Wyatt and binding them together. Cortney's plump body pressed against his hard muscles, their closeness palpable in the air. Bloodette followed Cortney's orders diligently, dotting their surroundings with precision.

Wyatt could feel Cortney's nipples pressing against his chest, the warmth of her body seeping into his skin. Her crotch area rubbed against his, igniting a primal response within him. As her voluptuous body squeezed against his, a surge of desire coursed through Wyatt, his manhood reacting instinctively to the intimate contact.

Despite the unusual circ.u.mstances of the blood rule tentacles, the skin contact between Cortney and Wyatt was undeniably real. In the midst, Wyatt's body responded to the primal urges that stirred within him simulated by Cortney's vulgar body pressing against him.

For someone who had managed to achieve independence from his mortal body. Destroy his body and reconstruct it with a snap of his fingers, Wyatt was still bound by his physical needs. He did not think that they would show their ugly side now of all times.

Cortney's action shocked Diana and Cindy who were still trying to process the fact that their big project had a huge flaw. They stared at Cortney and Wyatt in astonishment, they did not know how to respond to the situation as they did not have a proper grasp of Wyatt's relationship with Cortney. They thought they were friends but they had lived enough to know the phrase friends with benefits.

"Cortney, have you finally gone mad?" Wyatt yelled, ready to mobilize his strength to break free of the tentacles binding him but then he looked into Cortney's eyes, he saw tears in them and realized what was happening. So he could not bring himself to break free and sat there, waiting for her to speak her mind.
