Ethan was honestly surprised that Kaela had helped him get his friends in so easily and allowed them to tag along to her VIP suite. Just the cigars alone were probably a fortune.
But people rarely did things without ulterior motives, and as wild as she seemed, she was also sharp and perceptive.
He felt like they were similar in that regard.
Not only was she keenly observing him, but she also probably assumed that Elara was with him. Then again, maybe she just wanted the company of someone who was completely afraid of her.
Either way, Ethan was grateful and also had a bunch of questions for her.
"So," he said, glancing at Kaela. "Who runs this place?"
She took a slow sip before answering.
"Guy calls himself Cyclops."
Ethan hadn't heard of him.
"Is he some huge, ugly dude?"
She laughed.
"No. Just has one eye."
"Creative name, I guess."
But then, her expression shifted.
"I've met him once," she said slowly.
"And?"
Kaela exhaled slowly.
"He's not good news."
