"Lucy had to know because most of us already knew. It was a chain effect and we were happy the family was back together. That was a weakness, it stopped Godfrey from becoming exactly like Cain wanted but the cost for that is your safety."
"I don't care." Isaac responded. "I don't want you or Godfrey to babysit me, you are both my friends, not my parents. You have no qualms about Percival knowing, you were not too disturbed about Snow either but me and Lucy. You see us as weak, that we need to be protected, to be tucked away nicely so we won't break. That's all this is."
"It is all this is. It's the unfortunate truth but that doesn't mean I don't see you as my friend."
Isolde's reply made Isaac laugh sarcastically. "Lucy won't feel the same about you if she hears this. You know Lucy has always been sensitive to her limitations. I thought you felt for her but this… oh, I see." His eyes darkened.
