Jerica was vaguely annoyed that Eve completely ignored her — but was somewhat relieved, too. She didn’t want to have to deal with trying to protect her if she couldn’t ...

Jerica didn't trust Eve even a little. But, she didn't have much choice but to go along with the plan. If she'd been alone then she would have done exactly ...

“Alright.” Jerica didn’t feel like arguing, and she was fatigued. She stood up and grabbed her spear and held the swim suit in one hand. “Wake me up if you ...
