And gods, what an avenue, what a road to suddenly bear. Because the temptation to leave him there, to let him fall and flicker and be gone, was tempting. In her rage, in her bitterness, in her rancor, she could merely persist in her vengeance – show him exactly what she was.
Except there were already so many broken bridges.
Her eyes flickered towards him, and a ghost of a sigh warbled along through her chest. No hesitation there, as she extended her hand to help.
