Caesar raised his eyes, shooting him a startled look.
"How did you know that, Yuri? Nikolai told you, didn't he?"
"So, she really is your mate." Yuri laughed, incredulous. "I guess you are doing this because she is your mate. And it is a stupid idea! She is human, sir, and an enemy at that. You can't possibly want to mate with a hu-"
"I would never do that," Caesar sharply cut him off. "I am merely doing this to get what I want."
"What about your father? What will you do if he finds out about this?" Yuri asked, concerned.
"Nothing, because he won't do anything," Caesar replied while watching the ritzy high-rises blur by. "I am doing what I'm doing to get rid of the Petrovs. And as for Adeline..." He paused.
"...No one will get hurt. She will be very useful and in return, she will get what she wants. It's as simple as that. It has absolutely nothing to do with her being my mate."
