Kane loosened his watch strap and, after a moment, suddenly laughed, “The person pulling the strings behind you is Mrs. Thorne, right?.
Beckett did not dare to hide anything and nodded.
Mrs. Thorne did not contact him on the phone, but sent someone to the sacred grounds prison to find him. She’s staying out of sight so people wont ger suspicious of her.
Kane’s smile faded, and he coldly instructed Celia, “Singleton seems to be running for re–election, doesn’t he?”
Celia nodded, “Yes.”
“Time to replace the Tax Bureau director.”
Kane left these words and walked away.
Night fell, and outside the window, there were twinkling lights.
Aria finished her shower, and her phone on the table suddenly lit up.
She walked up to the counter and picked up her phone to take a look.
It was a message from Kane.
[I was outside your door.]
Aria frowned and walked to the window, and sure enough, his car was parked outside the gate.
She pulled the curtains and didn’t reply.
[You’re not coming out – are you waiting for me to come in?]
Aria looked at the message, speechless, put on her coat, and walked out of the house.
She walked out of the yard, and the car headlights were shining directly at the door. As soon as she came out, she instinctively avoided the strong light.
The man get out of the car.
She suppressed the irritation in her heart, “Kane, is there something that can’t be said during the day? It has to be at night-”
With her hands pressed gently to his chest, the silk robe slipped from her shoulder, still carrying the warmth and soft scent from her recent shower. The delicate fabric pooled at her elbow, framing the graceful line of her collarbone.
Since Eleanor’s birthday, the night Selena drugged him, he had never tasted her again.
His alluring mate, soft as boneless, was now in his arms, and Kane’s throat rolled, his lower abdomen tight.
His wolf roared with possessive hunger, the mate bond pulling him toward her irresistibly.
