Chapter 163: Hidden Bonds and Family Reconciliation–2
His tone changed to something deadly serious. “But you have to be mentally prepared, this is bad news for you.”
I remained silent, my ice–blue eyes darkening with barely controlled emotion. My wolf was demanding action. demanding answers.
Miles no longer laughed, his voice carrying weight. “I had dinner with a client in a restaurant tonight. As soon
as I walked out of the private room, I saw your Olivia and Adrian Sinclair corning out of another private room
