When James told her that Luna had been burned, Lily felt a sharp, uncontrollable pain rip through her chest.

But once the pain faded, all that was left was numbness.

There was a time she had truly adored and clung to Luna.

She had been grateful the Ginger family adopted her, saving her from a life of hunger and beatings in the orphanage.

She used to hope the Ginger family would find Mathilda soon, so they could all be reunited and live in harmony.

She even thought that once Mathilda returned, she would treat her like a real sister–be incredibly kind to

her.

But after Mathilda came back, what awaited her was endless torment and abuse.

At first, when she was forced to grovel before Mathilda, she still held a sliver of hope for her adoptive parents and brothers.

Twelve years living under the same roof–even a dog would have bonded with them by now. And she hadn’t done anything wrong. There was no reason the Ginger family should hate her like that.

But when Luna, Jerome, and the others angrily accused her of stealing the life that should have belonged to Mathilda–as if all the suffering Mathilda had endured was her fault–she finally gave up all illusions about her adoptive parents and brothers.

Especially when their so–called discipline became more and more twisted. She just wanted to escape that suffocating, loveless house.
