Revelation (Private 8) - Page 138

"Which is exactly what's happened," Ivy said, her eyes wide.

I felt a jolt of electricity between us. "I knew it! I knew there was something off about that girl.

This is why she wanted the disc so badly! She was worried I might find out about her dad and

Cheyenne! She was only trying to protect herself."

"Wait. What do you mean she wanted the disc?" Ivy asked.
