An Understated Dominance (Dustin Rhys)

Chapter 822

Dustin was surprised by the dagger that clattered noisily by his feet.

The dagger was indeed the one that Ronald gave him. But after a few drinks last night, he had put

“Well? Do you have anything else to say? Are you going to tell me that the dagger had been stolen? “Spring asked darkly.
