People with antisocial personality disorder are always narcissistic. Similarly, it's very typical for people with narcissistic personality disorder to exhibit psychopathic traits.
These traits are studied together because they almost always overlap and combine. If a person has psychopathic traits, then they tend to have narcissistic and Machiavellian traits too. People with these personalities can't sense other people's feelings or see the world from any perspective apart from their own.
Narcissistic personality disorder does not imply psychopathy. If you want to read more on the subject then I'd recommend this article - "Association Between Psychopathy and Narcissism Theoretical Views and Empirical Evidence" - https://www.no-limit.org/pdf/Hart%20&%20Hare,%201998,%20DoN,%20Psychopathy%20and%20narcissism.pdf
It's a nice summary of the theory and research on the association between psychopathy and narcissism. It also clarifies the difference between psychopathy and antisocial personality disorder. If you want to dive deeper into the topic you can check some key clinical-theoretical perspectives on the association between psychopathy and narcissism and the review of the relevant empirical literature.
