He glanced at me and nodded, not even taking a second to think about it.
“Yeah. I got it. I’m sure there’s something in one of those boxes she can put on.”
Ice made a face that spoke volumes of his disapproval. His freakishly blue colored eyes conveyed how much of a bad idea he thought that was.
“What is wrong with you two? My Satanas,” Bella sighed and stood up, shaking her head. “Come with me Cammy, we can find her something of mine that will fit. You aren’t dressing her up in some dead bitch’s gaudy old clothes. Who knows how long some of that’s been in there? Ew.”
I preferred she remained in what she had on, but I could see where Bella was coming from.
The storage area was one room our dad hadn’t bothered clearing out. Some of the shit in there was older than me.
We divided into two teams to get things done, each walking in different directions of the compound.
CHAPTER EIGHT
I followed Bella upstairs to what was once Grimm and Arlen’s room.
She’d made the space her own the second we arrived here. The wall the bed sat against was white, dominated by a colorful Baphomet mural, the most girlie one to ever exist.
The remaining walls were a light shade of blue. It wasn’t my thing. I preferred darker tones.
But this worked for Bella, and my sister would have loved it. Lilith was as girly as a Savage could be.
Bella shut the door then turned to face me, tucking a strand of nearly white blonde hair behind one of her ears, blue eyes full of concern.
“Are you okay?”
“Uh… yeah.”
“You sure?”
I sighed and offered her a small smile. “I’m the same as I was the last time you asked me.”
“I just want you to be…” she trailed off.
“I know,” I supplied. “I want to be that too.”
“Do you?” She gave me a suspicious look, not believing my words.
“Of course I do.”
“If you say so.”
“What is this, anyway? An interrogation?” I asked jokingly. “Look, kiddo—”
“Hold up. Kiddo?” she laughed. “I’m not a kid.”
“True. You’re more of a brat.”
She mockingly pouted, causing me to smile. I should have known she would take offense to that. In so many ways, she wasn’t a little girl anymore, but in even more she was. I may have been biased though, because even when she was grown, I would see her as my baby sister and Lilith’s best friend.
Being around her sometimes made me feel closer to Lilly. The way she was thriving gave me hope that Lilith was alive and would one day be able to do the same. Hoping was foolish around here, but I had to believe in this for my own mental stability.
“I should never have let them separate us,” she stated solemnly.
“If you didn’t, you wouldn’t be here right now,” I reminded her gently.
“I know, but Lilith wouldn’t be alone with him either.”
