Chapter 82

• Dane clearly saw Scarlett as Michael's greatest weakness, believing that he himself possessed no such vulnerabilities that could be exploited. But Michael knew better.
• He understood from years of studying human nature that everyone had pressure points, including someone as seemingly invulnerable as Dane Creighton. The key was identifying those weaknesses and applying pressure with bone-crushing precision.
• Michael had delivered clear warnings to that arrogant bastard before, making it crystal clear that he wouldn't remain silent while his sister was terrorized. But Dane was too stubborn, too drunk on his own power and privilege to listen to reason or heed legitimate threats to his safety.
