Gastone's eyes narrowed, his suspicions deepening. "What do you mean you don't play by the same rules?"
The woman's gaze flickered with a hint of amusement as she leaned back against the railing, seemingly unbothered by the earlier confrontation. "Daniel is... predictable. He likes to control everything and everyone around him. But me? I thrive in chaos. I create opportunities where he sees none."
"Opportunities for what?" Gastone asked, still on edge. He needed to understand her angle, especially if it concerned Daniel, who was connected to Lucia.
"For power, for freedom. For those who refuse to be chained by the old ways." the woman's voice softened, but her words carried an undeniable edge.
"Have you already forgotten you're not a human?" Gastone whispered, stepping a bit closer toward the woman. "You're meddling too much in this realm."
"You didn't go through all that for nothing."
