Lily's Shocker - 3

Lily Malum gaped at Seth. He didn't know that what she had to tell him was of utmost importance. She had not planned on telling him now and had wanted to gain his trust first, but apparently, things had changed and she had to use what she had or knew to get what she wanted.

A piercing pain went through Lily's arm and she stifled a wince. She needed her hands free. There were many plans going through her mind and she'd need her hands for one of them. Finally, she said with her cast down and her eyes closed. it was raking everything that Lily had to say this to the person that was quickly becoming the person that she hated the most; "Princess Ruby..."
