“Sorry, the number you dialed is switched off.”
I heard the automated message and calmed down.
She was probably asleep.
“Call me when you wake up,” I texted, putting my phone away.
As I was about to enter the subway, a car horn blared.
Ragnar’s Maybach; he hadn’t left.
I got back in.
Remembering his words, I suppressed my thanks.
“Not bad,” he said, a gentle smile playing on his lips.
We exchanged a look, then laughed.
The invisible distance between us seemed to lessen.
“Ragnar, why was it David, not you, who was supposed to meet me?” I asked, not to blame him, but for clarification.
“On my way to your company, Selene suddenly appeared; I accidentally bumped into her. I took her to the Pack’s infirmary.”
“So, Selene and David drugged me?”
I wasn’t surprised about Selene’s involvement.
“Yes, Selene approached David. I’m sorry I implicated you.” He’d planned to tell me and let me decide.
I was puzzled, then realized, “Selene liked you?”
I’d heard she’d had a long-term crush on someone, but I rarely went home during my five years with Lucian, so I didn’t know who.
“I didn’t like her; I had no connection with her.”
We stopped at a red light.
He looked at me earnestly.”I knew you had someone you liked.”
He’d explain to that person later.
Whether he had relationships with other women didn’t matter to me.
He saw my expression, his eyes darkening.”How do you plan to handle Selene? Need my help?”
“No need.” I’d handle it myself.
“If you need anything, let me know.”
We were near the company. He parked a few hundred yards away.
After waving goodbye, I headed to work.
He waited until I was out of sight before driving off.

Ryan didn’t call back until the afternoon; he couldn’t talk at the office.
I met him that evening at a private club.
As I entered my room, Lucian appeared on the same floor, heading to Room 888.
Ryan was waiting.
“What did you find?”
“It’s all here.” He handed me the information.
