Sweet Mischief’s Rollercoaster Romance

Chapter 1520

Anya poked at her food with a toothpick, chatting away as she ate. She wandered over to Leo, peering at his computer screen over his shoulder. "Jeez, that's dark. What are you even looking at?" She sliced up an apple and offered a piece to Leo.

Leo didn't look away. "The Dark Web homepage."

Inside the Dark Web's hideout, things were less cozy. Miles lounged in a chair, watching as Dean lay sprawled on the floor, only half-awake. Someone dumped a bucket of cold water over Dean's face, snapping him back to reality.

"Fiancé. They never made it to the wedding. Her brother-in-law took him out first," Miles said with a crooked smile.

A couple of men strode past the doorway. "Miles, Conner's car just showed up on the perimeter."

Miles glanced down at the battered Dean and smirked. "Look at you-got Maja and Conner working together for once."

He got up and barked an order. "Take care of Conner's men. Bring Maja to me, and only her."
