A trembling breath echoed in the silence
Bagot rubbed his nose, realizing that since they already knew the story, bringing it up again was just ripping the bandage off Elara’s wounds.
“Um…”
Bagot wanted to tell her she didn’t have to continue.
“It’s fine”
Elara’s voice was hoarse as she continued, “Julian Winter found out my mom was skilled at creating toxins and wanted her to work for him. My mom was sick of that life, so she refused. In retaliation, Julian ordered a bombing on the facility where they were working. My parents were right at the epicenter of the explosion…”

Bagot cleared his throat and said, “Yeah, we trust you completely now. But if you want revenge, you can’t just stay hidden here. Once Nathalie and Lance are cured, they’re definitely going after Sylvie

Winter. Do you want in when the time comes?”
“Yes!”
Elara’s voice was fiercely resolute, a deep well of hatred and determination flashing in her personally kill Julian Winter and avenge my parents!”
