"I don't need...your pity. All I want right now is to make Lillian is safe. There's no telling how many friends in high places the boss had, and I'm sure most won't be happy to hear about his downfall.."

She spoke calmly, sharpening her blade now. Finding purpose, in trying to protect Lillian.

Yay

I think that's a valid adjective to describe you.

Her tongue is getting quite the workout.. for now she'll lick away at her folds~

The golden eyed assassin will definitely not mind. Laying down in wait, she's.. eager.

She just.. nodded along, sitting down on a corner of the cafe.. long, heavy breathing. She was not sure what to do anymore. Who was she? What was she?

Was she just "Lillian's wife" now?
She didn't know.. she was no longer an assassin.
No longer a tool.
Did she have a purpose?
What was that purpose?

"It's.. it's perfectly alright.. I love you.. I love you.. and I will trust in you, and in whomever you choose to love.. I'm sure we'll all make this work out, okay..? Okay.. yeah..!"

That okay was mostly meant for herself.. she still couldn't believe everything that was going on.

+ at least she wouldn't hurt her.

Lillian was okay.
That was what mattered.
Gone?
Who was gone?
What did she mean?

She'd get those answers later.. for now she had to deal with the storm of emotions inside her heart..

"T-the women you love..?"

She felt a sudden, short yet intense, pain in her heart for a moment. What.. what did she mean by that..? Was.. was she not good enough for her..? She felt furious. She felt anger. True anger. Unlike she'd felt before.

But then, a calm. If she loved her.. that meant +

"L-Lillian..? What do you mean.. w-who is this woman..? She's been g-going through branches.. and.. I-I've never heard or seen of the operatives that were on them.. d-don't tell me you were working with her..? I.. I don't.. I don't understand.. what's going on..?"

She was confused, who wouldn't be?
