Ariel Castro’s life of sexual perversion was even more depraved than the world knew. RadarOnline.com has learned that while Castro kept Michelle Knight and Amanda Berry imprisoned as his own personal sex slaves, the terrifying monster was dating another woman — and she claims she had no idea about his dark secrets!
Author John Glatt revealed the bombshell in his new book, The Lost Girls. According to Glatt, Castro secretly wooed a woman named Lillian Roldan, seen here.
"He charmed Lillian off her feet," Glatt said, describing their initial encounter as love at first sight.
Through it all, Roldan claims to have had no idea he had imprisoned two women in his Cleveland home. However, she often visited his home, and is seen there in a photo on a page from Glatt's book.
Roldan confirmed the relationship, telling Radar, "We were boyfriend and girlfriend."
According to a police report, she "spent some nights at Castro's house and stated that the only thing she found strange was that the basement had a padlock." When asked, Castro said he kept the basement locked "because that is where he kept his money," the report said. In fact, Knight and Berry were imprisoned there.
According to Glatt, Roldan said sex monster Castro was "normal" sexually, despite impregnating kidnapped Berry and beating Knight to induce miscarriages.
Once, she claimed, he "took out his guitar and sang to me. It was so romantic."

In October 2003, he dumped her, saying he "didn't love her enough to stay." Just five months later, he kidnapped Gina DeJesus. The women escaped in May 2013 and Castro then committed suicide in prison.
Glatt's book, The Lost Girls, will be released on April 14.
