Capítulo 83: to suffer

GEMMA GRITS HER TEETH, slowly lowering her blade, "But I won't." She tucks it back in her clothes. "No matter how much I want to see you dead, I can't because I'm staying loyal to Connor. He's the only one of us who truly wants you alive. If you should thank anyone, it's him. So, you should follow his instructions. The sooner you accept this reality, the better it is for those who are on your side."

Aubrey stares perplexed.

"Go wash up in the bathroom, there are clean clothes you can switch into there." She eyes the dress Aubrey has on, "I'm pretty sure Althaia's knots would have killed you even without Demi's thorns." She smirks.

"Where's the bathroom?" Aubrey asks, ignoring her joke.

Gemma, aware of what Aubrey did, brings heavy eyes to the girl. "Follow me, I'll take you there. And once you're done, come to me, I'll take you home."
