Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 1013

Xander kept trying to calm Yvonne down.

But her emotions were all over the place—just as she started to cool off, the memory of that night would flare up, and she’d be seeing red all over again.

“Shawn managed to drag you away all by himself? Does he even have the muscle for that? Or did you actually want to bolt?” she shot at him.

He ran…

Yvonne never would have seen that coming.

If someone told her Dan had pulled a stunt like that, she’d have believed it. After all, that guy had once even faked his own death—skipping town after a one-night stand sounded exactly like his style.

But Xander?

She just couldn’t wrap her head around it, couldn’t accept that he would do something like that—let alone run.

Xander gave her a look but said nothing. After all, Lott and Ashley were his closest friends; there were some things you just didn’t rat your friends out for.

Still, faced with Yvonne’s white-hot fury, he caved. “Ashley and Lott were there, too,” he admitted.

Yvonne stared at him.

Hearing that Ashley and Lott had been a part of this only made her angrier.

Ashley and Lott!

“Unbelievable!” she exploded.

Those two weren’t just Xander’s friends—they were her friends, too! They’d all grown up together; Ashley was even her classmate.

“I treated them like friends! And they pull this on me? I swear, I’ll tear them both apart!”

She was trembling in fury, feeling like her whole world lately was just a never-ending minefield, and every single trap was set for her.

Xander, realizing Ashley and Lott were about to be caught in the crossfire, quickly fired off a message to Shawn: Tell the other two to run for cover, fast.

Shawn answered almost instantly: “Already called. They’re both out of Ferrowland!”

No wonder. When Yvonne lost her temper, she never held back. Hiding really was their only option.

Yvonne was so mad she went completely silent, withdrawing into herself.
