DANTE'S POV
Lying in the hospital bed, staring at the beeping monitor beside me, I couldn't shake off the uneasiness overwhelming me.
My mind wasn’t on the pain in my ribs; it was on the notification I had received about a large fund transfer that didn’t sit right with me.

Arnold turned, his eyes sharp, mirroring the worry I was trying to suppress. “You really think she’s using that money to pay them off? The rogue wolves?”
