Neither had the whole hour he spent in the boxing ring.

He dropped the bat to the side and leisurely approached Daniel. Daniel staggered backwards until he slammed into the car. That reminded him he wasn't supposed to be afraid of this bastard. Adrian should be the one cowering. Not him. But… “You have gone mad. You…” At the stadium, he thought Adrian had a chance with the men because they came at him separately and he was surrounded by the general's men. But this? He was like a monster

Adrian's car soon veered off the busy road towards the lone road that led to the general's estate. Any closer and the estate security would pick up on any nearby threat. Daniel knew doing anything this close to the general's turf was a bad idea. But… “You are not getting away that easily,” he gritted in determination. “Now,” he commanded his men.

“No! Of course not. It's another reason I love you. It makes you…cool. Well, I figure it must be because of what you dealt with growing up, you know. Some people turn serial killers because of their crappy family. But you? You internalise things. You bide your time and look cool while doing it anyway. God knows I can't survive this long with your family. One of us would have killed the other.”Seraphina laughed softly.She wasn't sure if Fallon’s description was really a compliment.
