“What do you want me to carve into her, Little Saint?” Fynn gives me a devilish grin.

Oakley stands behind Dani, holding her in place, “Try not to squirm. Otherwise, he may go too deep.”

“NO, STOP!”

I ignore her, “Let's go withLiarfirst,” I tell Fynn.

“SHE'S MY AUNT, I SWEAR! SIMONE...SHE WAS MY DAD'S BABY SISTER!” Dani screams out, and we all stop, going silent once more.

I can't be sure, but Dani seems pretty believable. I don't know if that changes much, though. She could still do this to avenge her aunt if Simone really was her aunt. There is just so much evidence against her.

“The obituary says that Simone left behind a daughter...” I remind her.

“Yeah, my aunt had a baby girl, but she gave her up. She never told anybody how she got pregnant. This is the first I've heard of an assault, Cat!” she looks at Jett and Fynn, “I'm not the fucking stalker!”

“How did you get the flash drive then?” Fynn questions, twirling the blade around in his hand.

“That package got delivered to me today, just before my afternoon class,” Dani replies, “I didn't have the time to look at it, and then I forgot all about it.”

“Oh, isn't that convenient,” Oakley sneers from behind her, “Tell us this then, Dani...why do you hate us so much?”

She remains quiet, but her eyes are glued to me, so I cock my brow, “Are you going to answer the fucking question?”

“What happened to you, Cat? This isn't you...”

“Oh, I don't know. Maybe I'm just tired of being hunted down like prey. I'm tired of looking over my shoulder to see if I'm being followed or wondering if this is going to be the day that the stalker succeeds in killing me.”

Oakley yanks Dani's head back by her hair, “Answer my fucking question. If you aren't the stalker, then why do you despise us so much?”

Fynn approaches her and presses his blade to her neck, “Answer, or we will get to see how pretty you bleed.”

“Stop...please!” she begs.

“One!” Fynn starts to count.

“Oh, God...”

“Two!”

“Please, don't make me...”

“Three!” Fynn pushes just enough to break the skin and release a small drop of blood.

“BECAUSE I WAS JEALOUS OF YOU!” Dani admits, “I wanted her for myself, but all she saw were you three!”

I step back, feeling like I just got slammed in the gut, “You wanted me? I don't understand...” I stammer.

Dani cries out when Oakley yanks on her hair harder, “I'm bisexual! I like you...I wanted you to like me back!”

“Holy fuck,” Jett rubs his hands together, “Now this is getting good!”

I roll my eyes at him, “Seriously?”

“What? I'm a guy, and we all love girl-on-girl action” he grins.

Ignoring his comment, I turn back to Dani, “So, that's your story. You're not my stalker; you just want to get in my pants? Funny, you never told me you were Bibi. You always went after guys when we went out.”

Dani swallows hard, “That's because you're the only female I want.”
