Only that word can find its way out of her.

"Hey, hey, hey, you are okay? I'm not mad at you. If the police can't come in time, the cars would be our best shot!" Sebastian cups her face, bending low to search for her eyes. He gazes into her eyes, making her sees into his eyes, where there is only clean warmth and genuine care, "You did great and you almost made it. I'm just glad that you are not hurt. Get in there."

"There is no better way," The man's slow, rough, calming tone pauses Scar. She blinks, trying hard to jump start her brain.
