Julian's POV I did not tell Ophelia where I was headed to. I knew that since we were mated, we needed to tell each other where we went to and I usually did. It was just that this was different and if I dared to tell her that I was going to pay her father a visit, she would have wanted to come. And if she came then her father would not speak freely and truthfully. I needed him to be as honest as possible and that was not going to happen in the presence of his precious daughter. It was like he was hiding things from her and did not want to tell her. I was not sure of who he was trying to protect. Was it him or his daughter? I was going to find that out today. I had discovered that a little threat here and there went a long way in making people open their mouths. It did not matter who it was
