"Why are you doing this to her?"

Mandy's eyes grew bloodshot, and to her own shock, tears of crimson streaked down her cheeks.

"What did Claire ever do to deserve this? How could you treat her with such inhuman cruelty?"

Her voice rose to a fevered pitch. "I'll kill you, I swear-die, just die—!"

"Please don't kill me! If you kill me, you'll never find Claire's child-never!"

Mandy froze mid-strike.
