Cross My Tigress Face the Wrath (Stella) novel Chapter 949

Skye couldn't help but scoff inwardly. Was this some kind of joke? If she actually had the chance at a sister-in-law, of course she’d want one. Too bad her brother Finley had been impossible from the start—his attitude had grated on her nerves for years.

She’d introduced him to every kind of woman imaginable, parade after parade of knockouts, all to no avail. Didn’t matter if they were tall, petite, blonde, brunette, dark-skinned, fair-skinned—Finley hadn't shown the faintest interest in any of them. Just thinking about it made Skye feel a familiar ache of exasperation in her gut.

"I’m serious," Yvonne assured her. "And listen—Finley actually seems interested in this one! For real!"

"Are you kidding me?" Skye was floored. Finley? Interested in a woman? After everything she’d put him through—every 'type' under the sun—now, suddenly, he’d warmed up to someone? She could hardly believe it.

Skye’s curiosity got the better of her. What on earth made this woman so special?

“I’m not lying to you. Would I lie about something like this?” Yvonne pressed.

Skye hesitated. Other people, maybe, but Yvonne? She was notorious for her tricks. If anyone would mess with her over something like this, it’d be Yvonne.

"You’d better not be making this up," Skye warned.

"I wouldn’t dare," said Yvonne, tone light. "Thing is, your future sister-in-law apparently needs some help from you right now."

"What kind of help?" Skye’s suspicion only deepened.

“Someone’s after her—wants her dead!" Yvonne replied.

Skye froze. That sounded like trouble. Her instincts screamed that this was setting off every red flag she had.

"If Finley’s interested in her, why isn’t he protecting her himself?" she shot back. "Why call me? And what’s with the 'sister-in-law' talk?"

"He wants to protect her, but I think he’s too shy to just step in. So he went about it in a roundabout way—through Star," Yvonne explained, sounding as if this was perfectly normal.
