Chapter 867:
That alone was enough to spark his interest in getting involved.
After the meeting, Allison headed back to her room, her mind racing with thoughts.
âYouâre finally back,â Kellan said, lifting her effortlessly. âIâve been waiting forever.â
Before Allison could respond, the world tilted, and suddenly she was in his arms, lying on the bed. He propped himself up on either side of her, his breath carrying a mix of authority and undeniable charm.
Kellan bent down and looked into Allisonâs eyes. âAllison, you two have been chatting for quite some time.â
Allison smiled and laughed quietly when she heard this, then wrapped her arms around Kellanâs neck. âBut it wasnât a waste,â she said.
Kellan saw how happy she looked and figured that she had gotten a good answer. âDid you make a deal?â
âYes,â Allison replied thoughtfully. âHe wants to take out Verruckt and Josh by tomorrow. It seems like heâs aiming to profit after we act.â
Kellan snorted in disdain. âSuch greed,â he muttered.
Their partnership certainly worked in both their favors. Allison playfully ran her fingers over his Adamâs apple. âAre you jealous of Mr. Vargas?â she asked.
Kellan grabbed her fingers and replied, âWhat if I am?â He countered, holding her fingers. âAllison, itâs not just jealousy. I have a lot of dark sides.â

Even though they were together, Allison could walk away at any time.
Kellan was aware of his obsessive and ruthless nature.
He had never admitted his intense desires to Allison. Especially in bed, even when he had her completely, it still didnât feel like enough. He wanted to keep Allison by his side forever.
âKellan, I know what youâre worried about,â Allison said softly. She placed her hand on his chest. âBut like I told you before, everyone has their secrets. What matters to me is how we feel when weâre together.â
As soon as she finished, Kellan caught her fingers with his teeth.
A warm, damp feeling spread from his tongue.
It was as if an electric charge ran through her whole body. âMy feelings wonât change,â he murmured.
Kellan kissed his way from her fingers to her lips. âAllison, I only love you.â
But he knew deep down that he couldnât let her stay now. Kellan smiled, his voice rough as he asked, âAre you leaving again tonight?â
Allison blinked, surprised that this was what worried him. âI do need to get back to the lab before morning,â she said.
She wrapped her arms around his neck.
âBut we still have three hours,â she added.
The dim light in the room created a soft, intimate glow. Allison gave him a playful, innocent look. âSo, Mr. Lloyd, letâs see if you can keep me here for three hours.â
