Stella stiffened and her eyes glazed over. Her tears stopped falling as her face and neck splotched with red. I wasn't sure if she was angry or afraid until her body started shaking. Afraid. Definitely afraid. *Who the fuck is this guy, Santos?* "Santos?" Stella repeated, her voice a scratch above a whisper.

Although, I'm getting a bit dizzy waiting for my answer, and might just have terrible aim by the time you finally spit it out."

Stella shook her head adamantly, and nearly shouted, "I-I'm not a traitor! I just-"
"Do not fucking lie to me!" Alex screamed and the ferocity in his features had me flinch.
He looked like a demon when he screamed like that. Like an actual monster, just as they portray him to be in the news.
