Chapter 181: Leader’s Identity
Ivo raised his head and met Spade’s oppressive gaze, he was really pressured by the alpha’s presence. However, he had to answer. After all, this question was relatively simpler than what they were about to talk about for real later.
Spade didn’t leave his eyes off the elder omega, observing the slight changes in his expressions and even his tense movements while waiting for his answer.
"We met at Hamayana Island," Ivo answered, fidgeting with his fingers to calm himself. "Uhm, he sat at my table and he was lost. Then I—" Before he could finish, Spade interrupted him.
"Were you the one who helped Arren?" Spade inquired. This time, his tone was softer, easing the atmosphere slightly.
Ivo was taken aback for a moment before quickly nodding his head as an answer.
"Yes, Your Majesty." He seemed to want to say something but finished it like that.
Spade’s impression of him was bad, and it still is, but considering he was the one who helped Arren at that time, he would try not to give him a harder time in this conversation. No matter what his intentions were for helping Arren, he still helped him nonetheless.
He leaned back, keeping his pheromones at bay. The pressure in the air then decreased. It was still there but significantly lessened.
Arching his brow, he spoke casually, "Now, I’ll cut the chase short, we know what we’re here for. You want to meet me because of what you know about the organization. In turn, I can give you protection or even help you with something you want." starting the real conversation without giving enough room to breathe.
