The Surporter

LANA

I suppose the words he said were the most shocking ones I've heard up to this point.

Who in the name of all that is holy would lead me to believe that there was some vile plot hatched against me? And who on earth would lead me to believe that there would be such a handsome messiah who would spend his valuable time rescuing a human being?

As a result of the shock, I found that I was drawing into myself.

I don't understand how Cerise could be involved in such a complicated plot against me.

Why would she want me to go to jail for a mess I wasn't even responsible for?

How was it even possible?

I drew in a slow breath and forced myself to smile a sigh of relief. I wasn't prepared to hear such words, but they were a piece of the pile of reasons why I shouldn't trust anyone in the woods. Although I wasn't ready to hear them, he spoke them anyway.

"You mean to tell me that they went to that extent?" I asked.
