Chapter 384

Emma froze for a moment. Was Hogan actually siding with Amara? She could've sworn she'd heard those two could barely stand each other.

Of course-it had to be because of Amara's dangerously pretty face!

That little vixen just had to look so damn irresistible, drawing men to her like moths to a flame.

Emma's gaze grew sharp, shadows flickering beneath her lashes. If she could, she would've clawed that smug look right off Amara's face.

At the sound of her voice, Amara's head snapped around.
