Chapter 163: Leader & Guardian

"Mandy, who do you think is the most dangerous being in the world?" Ace asked, his gaze fixed on the rolling expanse of grassland stretching out before him. Cattle grazed lazily, while cowboys rode their horses along the fence line, checking for signs of tampering. A gentle morning breeze rolled down from the distant mountains, carrying with it the earthy scent of the raw scene.

"Really? When I agreed to talk, I didn't sign up for a counseling session," Mandy said, rolling her eyes at Ace. She crossed her arms, clearly uninterested in humoring his question. But as her eyes met his, seeing the flicker of seriousness in them her demeanor softened. She sighed and answered, "Humans."

"I used to think the same," Ace said after a pause. He shifted his weight and glanced back at the fields, his expression darkening. "But there are things worse than humans."

Mandy frowned, her brow furrowed in confusion as she tried to follow his line of thought. Before she could ask, Ace turned back to her. "You are friends with Janice, did you ever ask her why she quit acting?"
