You’re the person Ethan trusts most. If he finds out what you’ve done, he’ll kick you while you’re down, and the

rest of the Preston family will take the opportunity to hunt you down relentlessly…”

Chloe Bennett listed every crisis she could bring to Cole Preston.

He ground the words out through his teeth, his gaze turning sharp and predatory.
