The familiar voice reached my ears and my eyes landed on Stella who was staring dead into my eyes with clear disdain written all over her face.
I ignored her, turning to walk away when she ran up to me and roughly grabbed me by my arm, pulling me back. I clicked my tongue in annoyance and anger started to pulse inside my veins as I yanked my arm out from her tight grasp in an instant.
"What do you want?" I asked curtly as I glared at her.
A chuckle emerged from her throat. "What do I want?" She repeated with an incredulous look plastered across her face. "Did you not hear me earlier? I want you to leave Blake alone," her sharp voice pierced through the air as tension hung in the air between us like a thick blanket.
I smiled.
"How can I possibly leave him alone if I'm his new team lead? He reports to me now," I announced as a smirk tugged at the corners of my lips and my eyes gleamed with a knowing look which only made her anger grow.
