Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 705

Just as Yvonne took down the last guy, thinking the night was finally over, two more black SUVs rolled up at the mouth of the alley—and this time, even more men piled out.

Yvonne muttered under her breath, “Oh, for crying out loud… Do these guys have it out for me tonight or what?”

Skye shot her a look. “Well? What are you standing around for? Planning to fight the whole city?”

Yvonne blinked in disbelief. “Wait, you mean… run?”

Skye raised an eyebrow. “You got energy left for another round?”

Yvonne huffed, trying to hide how winded she was. “You think I’m tapped out, huh?”

Truth was, she was running on fumes. After last night’s marathon with that guy—plus sprinting through half the city chasing Skye, then brawling with a dozen goons—her legs were jelly.

Skye just rolled her eyes and, without another word, nimbly vaulted up the iron back gate behind them.

Yvonne gaped. “Are you kidding me? Unbelievable…”

Just then, Xander finally arrived—only to see Yvonne being chased down by a mob.

A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes. He spun, popped open his trunk, and pulled out a shotgun. Without hesitation, he let loose a barrage at the men swarming Yvonne.

They never saw it coming. As Yvonne scrambled up the gate after Skye, Xander’s ambush sent the whole group sprawling to the pavement.

Only one guy was left conscious, and when he saw Xander coming, he shrank back like he’d just seen the Grim Reaper.

Xander strode forward, each step heavy as a sledgehammer.

“Mr. Schultz!” the guy stammered, recognizing Xander, his voice trembling.

Xander pressed his boot to the man’s chest. “Talk. Who sent you?”

“W-we… I…”

The thug hesitated, clamming up.

A second later, Xander jammed the shotgun’s muzzle against his forehead. “Try again. Was it Aira?”

The man’s eyes went wide, panic written all over his face—but he stayed silent.

Xander smirked. “Dan, then?”
