Episode 15: The Heist Begins

Evelyn sat across from Ronan, her fingers tapping against the table as she processed his words.

Steal from Donovan Graves.

It was insane. Dangerous. Reckless.

But it was also necessary.

Leon leaned back in his seat, his golden eyes gleaming with amusement. “Alright, Wolfe. What exactly are we stealing?”

Ronan smirked. “Not what. Who.”

Evelyn frowned. “What do you mean?”

Ronan crossed his arms. “Graves has a guy—his accountant. The man who manages all of his dirty money, fake identities, offshore accounts. You name it, this guy has access to it.” His green eyes flickered with mischief. “We take him, we take everything.”

Evelyn’s pulse quickened. “Where is he?”

Ronan grinned. “Locked away in Graves’ private casino, under heavy security.”

Leon exhaled sharply. “Of course, it’s a casino. That bastard loves his theatrics.”

Evelyn sat up straighter. “So, we get in, grab the accountant, and get out?”

Ronan chuckled. “Oh, princess, it’s never that simple.”

The Evernight Casino | The Plan

Evelyn stood in front of the mirror, adjusting the sleek black gown Leon had picked for her. It hugged her figure perfectly—elegant, sophisticated, but designed to let her move.

Because tonight? They weren’t just guests.

They were thieves.

Leon stepped up behind her, adjusting the cufflinks of his tailored black suit. “You look dangerous,” he murmured.

Evelyn smirked. “Good. So do you.”

Ronan, who was lounging on the couch, whistled. “You two look like trouble.”

Evelyn turned to him. “And you look like you just rolled out of bed.”

Ronan grinned. “That’s my charm.” He tossed a small earpiece to her. “Keep this in. Once we’re inside, we don’t have room for mistakes.”

Evelyn nodded, securing it in place. “What’s the plan?”

Leon slid a casino chip between his fingers, his expression sharp. “Evelyn and I are the distraction. We keep Graves’ security busy while you sneak into the VIP area and grab the accountant.”

Ronan smirked. “I love it when a plan is simple.”

Evelyn took a deep breath. “Then let’s do this.”

The Evernight Casino | Game On

The moment Evelyn and Leon stepped inside, they became different people.

The casino pulsed with energy—the clinking of chips, the hum of conversation, the scent of whiskey and wealth.

Evelyn’s heels clicked against the marble floor as she stepped forward, her confidence unwavering.

Leon leaned in, whispering, “You ready, princess?”

Evelyn smirked. “Always.”

Then, she strode toward the high-stakes poker table, where Donovan Graves himself was seated.

Game on.
