Chapter 35 Death Of Roseline Thorne ‘Kiera's Secret Insurance'

• The hot afternoon sun hung low, throwing wavering reflections across the glassy surface of Black Hollow Lake. Mayor Vic’s jaw was tight, his grip firm on the tiller of the small speedboat slicing through the water. The engine roared beneath him, but his thoughts were louder.
• He couldn’t shake Kiera’s words from last night, her smug taunt about “a secret” something so powerful she thought it made her untouchable. Vic’s control over Black Hollow had already started to slip since the Alien Dome appeared, and Kiera’s growing influence was becoming a direct threat to his reign.
• “If she’s hiding something… I’ll find it,” he muttered under his breath, his voice sharp, almost like a promise to himself.
