I blinked as if to check if this picture of Theo Park was real. My chest went cold. There had to be some mistake. “Hale.” “He has been flagged for months. He has offshore accounts and made suspicious transfers” Hale continued, unaware of the nuclear bomb happening inside me. Ashley leaned toward me.

but as Alexia Skylar Hale, im known to be work along side my father, in the company, of course. My father is Chris Hale. The owner of the Hale company. We're the second most well known family because of our company. The mafia shit is private. And for the mafia as well, we're second. And i have no issue with that at all.

He should have known that messing with a Pakhan was not going to end well. Nathan was not just an Alpha in the world of wolves. He was a Pakhan, a don of his family name, and king, and that was not something that we were going to let Domenico think he could destroy.

“Jonathan Hale.” The silence that follows is thick. “That’s not possible,” Liam says slowly. “Hale was listed as a consultant. He vanished from records years ago.” “Not from mine,” I reply. My hands curl into fists. I can still see the signature. Clean. Confident.

"Isla. If you're watching this, I'm already gone. And you've found the key." He coughs, a wet, painful sound. He wipes his mouth and continues. "The Black Swan isn't a bird, Isla. It's a Registry." He pulls out a document, holding it up to the lens. The paper shakes in his grip. "A list of every politician, judge, and CEO Michael Hale ever bought. From 1988 to the day I recorded this."
