Lilith III
“William, we haven't met, but his life matters to me, not because he is Mel's boyfriend, but I feel...”
“Responsible?” I gazed into her,
“Damon I scared, I am trying to play this tough heroine, but I am not, I am not strong or fast...”
“But you're smart... You don't have to be all those things to be a good leader, focus on your inner strengths, the people you love and— the ones who love you, that is what makes you strong Lilith, and the last couple of hours, you've seen and heard so much and still. Here you are, standing before me, ready to fight, you are the bravest man in this room,” I smiled, swiping my thumb under her eyes, wiping away her tears.
