Bab 175: Leech

Eric swallowed hard before finally saying one word that changed everything.

"Stella."

Alyssa blinked a few times in shock, still processing Eric's response as she stepped away from him.

She knew that she had a terrible feeling about Stella! She felt it in her very bones, even when Elias tried to convince her that Stella wasn't behind all of this. She had a gut feeling that was right.

"I knew it," she breathed out, trying to ground herself after such shocking news.

Now, she finally knew who was behind all of this. She could take action against Stella, and her chance came sooner than she expected.

"Way to keep a secret," a familiar voice sounded from a nearby cluster of oak trees.

Alyssa spun around to see Stella emerging from behind one of the thick trees. She wore black pants, a white top, and combat boots.
