Chain Reaction (Part 2)

"I'm sorry for showing you this, but if you can't hold yourself together while watching a colorless hologram, you won't last one second in front of the real deal." Quylla said.

"Thank you, Quylla." Elina sniffled, cursing herself for her umpteenth crying fit.

"Thank you for what?" Quylla asked in confusion, not feeling one shred of pride for torturing her friends like that.

"For taking such good care of us and Lith." Elina paused for a bit, holding Raaz's hand tight before adding: "Especially after he tried to kill you and your babies."

Quylla stiffened at the memory but she quickly shrugged it off.

"No, he didn't. Lith would have never done it. That thing is not Lith, it's just keeping him prisoner and we are going to set him free."

Elina stood up and went to hug Quylla, thanking her over and over again for believing in Lith so much.

Kamila, instead, clenched her hands and said nothing.
