章節 274: Love and Madness II

Stella's eyes shook as fear dominated her face under Maynard's gaze and threats. The words he had spewed and that look in his eyes, that wasn't the man she loved. This man… Stella couldn't recognize him anymore. 

There was never a time Stella would ever think Maynard would have this look in his eyes that sought to hurt her.

Stella resisted, blocking the door on instinct. 

"Not a step, Maynard!" she screamed, enduring the sudden pain in her stomach. "You will not step inside this place."
