Kapitel 121: Take Control

[William’s POV]

Make it worth her while. The words are almost laughable coming from Elise. Who was she to even name a price when she really had no other choice?

“If you aren’t willing, then I will…”

“What makes you think you’re in a position to say that?”

Maybe I was being rude, but I needed to keep a fine line between us and let her know that she was nothing more than my partner in crime as I dug up the conspiracy taking place in Crystal Fang.

For a moment, Elise doesn’t speak as her bright eyes take me in, and when her gaze narrows, I know that I’ve hit a nerve.

“I could just spill what you’re up to.” She points out. “I don’t work for free.”

“Go ahead.” I chuckle. “Do you really think that my uncle or packmates would believe a known criminal over their future alpha?”
