Thanks for the update. Oddly enough... these two fits the I hate you so much that its practically releasing some odd levels of sexual tension (if that makes sense)
A part of me nearly stopped reading when Earl got stabbed (since even IF Noah was holding back that time, its still impressive of the Earl to keep up with him. She's fought him once and saw portions of his abilities, clearly she has some level of preparations)
Naturally, I'm happy momma bear gets to live another day. But the mystery is piling up!
