I live in apt aunts on lease I have paid rent in full for 3 years ,do I have any rights?

My apartment is in my aunts name ,I have lived and paid full rent for three years ive
never been late on rent and owner is aware im in residence and my aunts not.
two days ago we got in a family dispute and my angry aunt told me not to pay almost due rent because shes surrendering apartmentjust to be spiteful, im afraid I have no rights
since im not on lease . I have three years of receipts . what can I do?
