Chapter 17
"Dante, you are punctual tonight." Evelyn said smoothly, sipping her wine.
The rival Alpha stepped inside, his boots were clicking on the polished floor.
"When there is a prize like Lucia involved here, I always make it a point not to waste time." he said.
"And what makes you think I'm still interested in helping you?" Evelyn turned to face him, her sharp eyes were filled with question.
"Because you are always as ambitious as I am. Don't pretend not to be." Dante smirked, his dark eyes were narrowing.
"You know as well as I do that Lucia's presence destroys everything—your plans, your alliances, and even your name. Helping me to take her out of the equation actually solves all of your problems." He rest on the side of her desk, folding his arms.
