But that threat–Ethan’s vow that Stella would die–brought a bloodthirsty smile to the corner of Abraham’s mouth.

The warmth vanished from his features, replaced by danger.

“So tell me do you think you’ll even walk out of here alive?”

As he spoke, his hand moved to his waist.

Jason saw the motion–and the object Abraham drew–and it felt like all the blood in his body stopped flowing.

Even his breath stilled.

The wind itself seemed to turn cruel and sharp.

Just as Jason was sure Ethan wasn’t getting out of here alive, Stella slowly stepped forward.

She reached out and grabbed Abraham’s wrist. “Abraham.”

Abraham’s eyes cleared slightly as he looked at her, dark and intense. “Can’t bear to see it?”

“We’ve got more important things to deal with.”

Stella’s t

tone was calm, a soft reminder.

And just to make it clear that it wasn’t about mercy, she ground her heel into Ethan’s injured hand.

Already wounded. Ethan let out a strangled cry–he had never been so humiliated.

Stella pulled Abraham’s hand down and took the object from him. “Let’s go.”

Can’t bear to see it? That wasn’t the

e point.

Abraham wouldn’t be in Rivermount this long unless something big was going on.

If anything happened to Ethan now, it would create unnecessary trouble.

judson’s influence in Rivermount was not to be underestimated.

Stella put Abraham’s business above everything else.

The look Abraham gave her grew darker, deeper–but in the end, he let her take it away.

Like a raging tiger suddenly soothed.

He glanced once n

more at Ethan, let out a cold snort, then lifted his foot and walked off with Stella.

Ethan felt the pressure on his back disappear–and with it, all his strength drained.

Only after Stella and Abraham’s car disappeared did he let Jason help him to his feet.

“What was that guy holding?”

Even now, thinking back kon it made Ethan break into a cold sweat.

Someone in Rivermount, acting so openly, so fearlessly–who the hell was he?

Jason nodded, his voice serious. That guy. It was him.”

Jason was sure the man would’ve actually killed Ethan.

Carrying that kind of weapon on him… he wasn’t normal. Not by a long shot.

Ethan’s chest heaved. “Still no clue who that guy is?”

Jason frowned. “There’s something familiar about him.”

But no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t place it.

And the man’s background… they couldn’t find anything. No matter how hard they tried.

Which only proved how serious his backing was.

“Shit-” Ethan winced. “Get me to a hospital.”

The pain was unbearable. His injured hand couldn’t even move anymore.

Finished

Inside the car.

Stella placed the object back at Abraham’s waist. “So, everything in Rivermount handled?”

Abraham took her icy little hand and held it. “Why?”

“I miss Mom and Sis.”

Abraham pulled her into his lap without hesitation.

He gently rubbed her soft hair. “Good. You’ve got some conscience after all.”

Stella’s lips twitched.

Abraham’s warm fingertips trailed the marks on her neck. “That bug sure got you good. So many bites.”
