Aiden's face hardened at the mention of Ryan's name. His fingers clenched subtly, and Emyr didn't know whether he should continue.
He just earned a reward. He doesn't want to get punished right after.
"Since he has finally learned to make a decision, help him." Aiden's words held a meaning that Emyr at first failed to understand. But when he saw his boss's eyes carrying the glint of the same vengeance that they carried when he ordered to break Delyth's legs, he understood.
Nodding, he affirmed politely. "I will ask someone to send evidence right away, sir."
Aiden glanced at him and gave a firm nod. Then, motioning toward the door, "You can leave now."
Emyr nodded, then took a step back and turned to walk out of the room.
The darkness in Aiden's gaze didn't disappear. It remained there as he stared at the empty corner of his office. His fingers clenched tightly as if he reminisced about something that made his darker side roar inside him as if raging to break free.
