Capítulo 215: Dread Inside

~ ZARA ~

We stared at each other. My heart was racing because she wasn't wavering. There was nothing in her that said she was lying and that scared the fuck out of me—was she telling the truth? Or just a much, much better liar than I had realized?

Either way, I wasn't going to let her back me down, because if this was her true attitude, then she couldn't be trusted at all.

"I think you're jealous. Jealous, and bitter and—"

She made a frustrated noise and shook her head. Behind her, three of the Defenders were talking, watching us through the window, but none of them opened the door.

"I tried to be your friend," she said, almost to herself. "I tried to warn you. Tried to get you to see what you were walking into, but fuck. Get it through your head, Zara. To these people you are not special. Period."

Nerves coursed through my veins. Then Agatha's words came back to me.

Consider the source.
