Out of nowhere, the sweet melody of her phone’s ringtone snapped Evangeline back to reality. She stared at the name dancing on the screen, hesitated for just a second, and then accepted the call. 

“Make it quick, and don’t mess with my downtime!” She was not in the mood for Walter’s rambling and made that clear right off the bat. 

To her surprise, it was not Walter’s voice on the other end. 

“Evangeline, do you always boss around Mr. Walter Gordon like this?” Caden’s voice came through, laced with an awkward chuckle. 

Evangeline’s lips quirked up in a half–smile. 

one to catch it? 

Was it fate that the first time she flexed her muscles with Walter, Caden had to be the one 

“Spit it out.” 

She had laid down the law, and Caden was not about to forget it. 

Evangeline maintained her cool facade, determined to show nothing but ice. 

Evangeline’s words snapped Caden back to reality, and he could hear the panic creeping into the voice on the other end of the phone. 

“Uh, Evangeline, I’m at Kronovia Royale Pub with Mr. Walter Gordon. He’s been in a foul mood, knocking back drinks like there’s no tomorrow, and now he’s running a fever, I think. Can you come and help me get him home?” 

“Can’t he make it back on his own?” Evangeline asked, her patience wearing thin. 

She had zero tolerance for people who hit the bottle every time life threw a curveball, especially Walter, who was notorious for trying to push people around. 

Caden took a look at Walter, who was slumped against his shoulder, and said, “He’s… not in the best shape to do that. Plus, I’m pretty sure he’s got a fever.” 

Caden could feel the heat radiating off Walter and knew it was not good. 

Evangeline did not want to care about what happened to Walter, but the mention of a fever tugged at her heartstrings. Infections could spike a fever, could it not? 

Walter had been neglecting his health lately. What if his recklessness had led to an infection? 

The thought brought an image of a tear–stricken Trey. She sighed. Fine, she would go. Her heart was just too darn soft. 

If she did not, and Walter’s condition took a nosedive, Trey would be the one pacing the floor with worry. She could not let that happen, not on her watch. 

At Kronovia Royale Pub, in the swanky VIP room reserved for Avalon City’s elite, Walter and Caden were the center of attention. Girls swarmed around them, vying for the attention of the city’s most notorious bad boy, as if they were nothing more than playthings at his fingertips.

Walter was acting entirely out of character, welcoming any girl who walked through the door with open arms and a roving hand, no matter what they looked like.
