Chapter 415

That's exactly why Miranda just walked out.

Honestly, she'd rather go solo than team up with a bunch of people like that. At least this way, nobody could drag her down.

It was painfully obvious-there wasn't a single person in that group who could actually get everyone to listen. Each and every one of them was totally self- centered. Trying to talk things over with them would be a complete waste of time.

She'd bet good money they wouldn't get through ten sentences before someone started arguing—or flat-out yelling.

Well, whatever. This time, at the expo, she'd be there as an official guest of the Lancaster Group, anyway. That meant she'd be front and center, representing them-her path was totally different from theirs.

She didn't have to wait long before she spotted Elian.

He was walking up from the front of the car-tall, lanky, with that comic book vibe going on. You'd never guess that under those clothes he was hiding a body packed with insane strength and muscle. If he were a dead man, he'd be the perfect specimen. But alive? He was pretty much perfection in motion.

Every time she thought about it, Miranda couldn't help but feel a little hungry for him.

"Done talking?" she asked, leaning on the car.

Elian grinned. "How'd you know?"

He strolled up to her, totally relaxed, holding her gaze.

Miranda raised an eyebrow. "Just a hunch.”

She popped open the passenger door and slid in without waiting.
