Zachary Shane let out a low, cold laugh as he swung his fist, attacking. "Aren't you angry that I messed with Lilian Parker? Then let's make a bet. If I insist on going after her, can you protect her or not?"
Daniel Cooper suddenly furrowed his brows, didn't dodge, and raised his arm to solidly catch the blow. "Have you gone mad?"
Zachary Shane sneered and lifted his chin, striking again. "Just say if you dare to bet."
