His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2028

"Not working together," Dean corrected her. "You're working for me. If you do it well, I'll reward you. If you mess it up, you will face whoever wants to kill you on your own."

Natalie gulped. Her heart was beating wildly. She was at a loss for words. No wonder her mother left Dean back then. How would her mother not have weighed the pros and cons? The possibility of danger by being with Dean would surely be much higher than the advantages she received.

"Why are you not talking?" Dean looked at her.

Natalie's fawning gaze vanished. At that moment, she looked extremely cold. He could not guess what she was thinking.

"Dean, it is true that I tried to kill Elliot and Avery, but Avery is not dead. If you hadn't removed Elliot from the underground cellar, they would have managed to rescue both Elliot and Avery. If I were to tell her that you are the one who has Elliot, do you think I would be Avery's only target?"

Natalie could not find it in herself to call him Dad.

"Are you threatening me?" Dean narrowed his eyes, trying to intimidate her.

"Do you know about Dream Maker?" Natalie looked at his wrinkled face. She said, "Avery created Dream

Maker. Don't think that you're more powerful than Avery in Bridgedale. Underestimating your opponents would only make you die quicker! Wanda Tate's death was not an accident. She died at Avery's hands. The day that Wanda died was the same as Avery's mother's death anniversary." 1

Dean was not familiar with all of that, so he listened attentively.

"Despite not knowing whether Elliot is dead or alive, I know that you have him and that you won't return him to her. If Avery takes the day she lost him as the day he died, then you can venture a guess as to when next year you will die." Natalie tried to fluff up her threats.

How could Dean not be afraid? He had always been searching for ways to stay young and live longer because he had not had enough of life yet!
