Let Me Go, My Mafia Husband by Paga Slayer

Chapter 540 My Mate

Damon's face turned pale, his eyes reflecting shock and disbelief. Before anyone could process the situation, Zander emerged from the shadows, standing tall before Damon. His soldiers followed suit, swiftly converging to encircle Damon and Emile. Damon's features hardened as he shot me a cold, piercing look and then turned his glare toward Zander.
