40. Playing with fire

"Tell me exactly what happened while I was away," Alec asked. He was currently in his study with Raal and Kevin Kevin opposite to him. "I want every detail of it."

Raal and Kevin exchanged looks with each other and decided to tell him everything. There was a tacit understanding between them, they didn't need to talk or mind-link each other to know what they had to do. They soon began narrating the whole thing to him and he got even angrier when he heard that an assassin was sent to kill his mate.

He very well who Jim was and what he does. If Lillie did not know how to fight and defend herself... He could not even imagine what would have happened to her.

"Did he say who sent him?" Alex asked and they shook their heads.

"It is against the code of conduct to reveal the identity of his employer," Raal stated.

"I leave for a few days and my mate nearly got killed twice, what were her guards doing that she had to take care of it on her own?"
