Lily didn’t want to show weakness in front of these monsters–but she was panicking. She was scared. And no matter how hard she tried to hold it back, tears slipped down her cheeks.

“Why does everything Mathilda says get taken as the truth? I swear–I can prove she set me up!”

Bodger’s expression darkened, his grip tightening with fury. “You nearly killed her, and now you’ve got the nerve to make excuses?”

Sean stood off to the side, arms crossed, watching with cold detachment. He was waiting for Lily to break

Jonah just pulled Mathilda into his arms and snapped, “Bodger, what are you waiting for? Stop wasting time. Throw her into the rocks and make her pay for what she did to Mathilda!”

Tears spilled down Lily’s face, dripping onto Bodger’s hand. The warmth of them made his chest twist uncomfortably.

Looking at her–red eyes, completely crushed–he couldn’t help but remember the way she used to be. Before Mathilda had come back, Bodger had always hated seeing Lily cry. Her tears used to rip him apart. And now? Even after everything, her tears still got to him.
