Chapter 15 15

• Ryan's POV
• I didn’t know who this Bryan was, but I hated the idea of him hovering around Ariel. He certainly was up to something. If I wanted to stalk my lover too, I would have bought everywhere she worked in, lived in, ate in. And he’d only been smart enough to buy her company.
• “Look more into him. I don’t like the fact that he’s been hovering around. He might be up to something…, and I don’t want anyone jeopardizing my plans.” I retorted bitterly, the words heavy with venom as my gaze glided back towards Ariel, who seemed to look better although she was muttering in her sleep.
