Preparation - 04

As soon as Lucian disappeared behind the door, a brief silence enveloped the room. Reynald was still staring at the closed door, while Alpha, who had been quiet all this time, finally leaned against the table with a thoughtful expression.

"So, how was it? Did you meet your expectations, brother?" Schnee looked at Reynald with a meaningful gaze, her voice sounded flat, but there was a hint of curiosity in her tone.

Reynald didn't answer right away. He just let out a soft sigh and rubbed his temples. "Seriously..." he mumbled, his gaze still blank as he stared at the table in front of him. "What kind of luck did we have in the past that we ended up working with that person?"

Schnee chuckled softly, crossing her arms with an unreadable expression. "I even think that getting into trouble with him is a huge mistake," she said, her tone sounding like someone who realizes how dangerous Lucian is.
