Chapter 153

• Sebastian’s unease grew as he scanned the crowded nightclub, his stormy gray eyes narrowing in suspicion. He was accustomed to being the one in control, the one who observed without being observed, but tonight, something felt off. It was a subtle shift in the air, a tingling at the back of his neck that made him feel as though he, Amelia, and Hailey weren’t as alone as they appeared to be.
• As he settled back into his seat, his arm still draped protectively around Amelia, his gaze darted across the room, searching for the source of his discomfort. The flashing lights and thrumming bass made it difficult to focus, but Sebastian had learned to trust his instincts over the years. He’d spent too much time in the shadows not to recognize when someone was watching him.
• For the first time in his life, he kind of wished Leandro was there with them because he had told his men not to come with him. But Leandro is a ghost and no one knows exactly where he is or what he was doing.
