Chapter 17

Scott's POV

He sat in silence...not because he didn't have questions but because every time he opened his mouth, the answers sounds like knives

The image played again, his mother gasping...blood spilling , his father's last scream and Lily's parents, her parents... smiling like it's all a game

"They did it for her" Wiltz had whispered "she was the reason"

Scott didn't want to believe it but he also can't deny the truth

Wiltz watched him, silent but smirking. Watching

Scott clenched his fist, he hadn't decided anything yet...but each second stretched longer and the cold in his chest doesn't feel like grieve anymore

It felt like purpose
