Brandon held my hand carefully and spoke cautiously,
“Darling, Lyon is not a good person. You should avoid interacting with him. He has a huge dragon tattoo, and it’s obvious he’s not the type of man from a respectable family”
I glanced at him.
“Anything else?”
Brandon hesitated for a moment before nodding.
I lowered my gaze.
Lyon had already told me that everyone at Dragon’s Gate had a dragon tattoo.

As the one in charge, Brandon could not possibly be without one.
“Really? I’m actually kind of curious to see it. A big dragon, it must look really cool!”
Brandon’s expression changed in an instant, his ears turning red.
“Darling, you really want to see it?”
The car came to a steady stop.
Suddenly, Brandon grabbed my chin and kissed me.

Brandon smiled faintly.
“Did you feel it?”
His tattoo.
In the most intimate part of his neck.
I smiled and nodded.

“You just love scaring me. Stop contacting Lyon from now on.”
I nodded as he held me in his arms.
But the next day, I received a message from Lyon.
“It seems like the boss found out I was the one who snitched and has kicked me out of his inner circle,” Lyon’s message read.
I raised an eyebrow at the screen.
“But before I left, I learned something.”
“The boss plans to ambush Viper’s deputy next week. But those two? They’re slick as hell. We’ve never managed to get the better of them, and the boss got hurt last month because of them.”

“Be careful on your way back,” I said, nonchalantly, while applying lipstick in front of the mirror.
Suddenly, Brandon froze in place.
“Darling, this… sexy gown you’re wearing, why have I never seen it before?”
I tilted my head.
“Well, you’ve got your event, and I have mine. A college reunion.”
Brandon’s face softened.
He knows I meet up with my college friends a few times a year.
