Chapter 82 You’re a Murderer

Finished

“Tyler, why are you just standing there? Grab Rosaline, the murderer! Don’t let her get away!” Queenie yelled, glaring at the giant wolf beside her.

The wolf lunged at me, blocking my path, and then, in an instant, transformed into a well–groomed man with glasses.

I didn’t recognize him, but the way he looked at Queenie and his confident attitude made it clear he was one of her admirers.

“I’m Tyler Carlson. So, you’re Rosaline? A murderer, huh? Trying to escape now?” Tyler said, holding his hand out to stop me.

I didn’t know how to respond. I frowned, glancing at the lake, then spoke quietly, “I’ve already warned you- there’s wolfsbane in the water. If you try to stop me again and don’t help Stella, she’ll drown. And if that happens, who will be the real killer?”

Tyler hesitated, his eyes flickering with doubt, and he instinctively stepped aside.

But Queenie wasn’t so easily deterred. “Tyler, don’t listen to her! Both of us saw it–Rosaline pushed Stella into the water! If anything happens to her, it’s on Rosaline, not us! Keep her from running, and I’ll call the police.”

Hearing that, Tyler’s face lit up with a smirk. “Don’t worry, Queenie. With me here, she won’t escape!”

I stood there, staring at Tyler. It was clear they didn’t care about Stella’s life–they were more interested in making sure I was blamed for her death. This would ruin my life; I would be trapped with the label of a murderer forever.

Queenie took out her phone, dialing the police. She exaggerated the whole situation, spinning a tale about a werewolf drowning, claiming she had stopped the killer, and urging the officer to hurry.

I rubbed my forehead in frustration. Losing patience, I tried to push past Tyler, but before I could, a tall figure appeared. His voice was cold and firm as he spoke, “What’s going on here?”

It was Jasper.
