Chapter 193

She trails off, her gaze meeting a silver pen on the ground, away from the body. “He slapped me, and I screamed for help but he kept hitting me, I kicked back until it got blurry and when I came back, he was dead. I killed him.”

I blink, trying to catch her story even though it won't stick. “Do what?” I ask her.

“Tristen raped me two nights before Halloween, and black mailed me into thinking I had enticed him. He dr***ed me so we could have sex, I didn't want to I promise, I just wanted Khaos to be jealous because they are rivals. He had a video, he said he would publish it with some photoshopped pictures.”

Fuck, Gia was raped, and nobody noticed. I remember how bubbly she was at the Halloween party, God I feel nauseated by my lack of awareness. “Who saw you come in?”

“I-” she pauses, her gaze drifting to the body. 

I grab her and shake her, “Gia, focus.”

“Nobody. I came through the back but my car is packed outside.”

“Okay, it's fine.”
