“What happened?” The group crowded around Lara, all gazes filled with pity.

“Who bullied you?”

“I was just trying to help. I never thought I’d only make things worse.”

“What did you try to do, Lara? Everyone knows you’ve got a kind heart,” Graham said, stepping forward with concern.

“Are you blind, Graham? That woman nearly got Theresa killed!” Dave snapped instantly, stupefying Graham.

“I really didn’t mean to,” Lara whimpered, eyes shining with tears. “Everyone was helping, and I thought I should too. I didn’t think it would go wrong.”

Theresa strode over, grabbed Lara by the collar, and hauled her up off her feet. “Good intentions need strength to back them. Do you have any? You think acting like some saint excuses your stupidity?

“You screw up, then try to brush it off with an ‘I didn’t mean it‘? What are you playing at–cute, innocent? You think big t*ts and no brains pass for kindness? You hurt people, then pretend to be some vulnerable fawn. Who the hell are you fooling?”

“I really didn’t-” Lara’s words broke off in a sob.

Theresa swung her toward the window, leaving her legs dangling over the swarm of zombies below. The undead howled at the scent of living flesh. Lara’s mind went blank as terror surged through her, and she shrieked wildly, “Help me! Don’t let me fall!”

Theresa looked her dead in the eye. “So, you’re not that stupid after all! You know danger when it’s right in your face, don’t you? But when it suited you, you made trouble! Playing dumb! Acting innocent after you caused a mess! Who’s supposed to put up with that?” Her hand cracked across Lara’s face, again and again, every word punctuated by another blow.

Theresa never coddled anyone. Her slaps rang sharp, relentless. Lara broke down, crying and begging. “I’m sorry! I was wrong! Please, don’t kill me! I’ll stop pretending–I swear!”

“What the hell are you doing!” a man’s furious voice shouted.

One of Lara’s companions charged forward. “Put her down! Let her go!”

Tyger, Kyle, and Dave instantly moved to block him.

“You’re nothing but thugs!” the man–Lachlan Greenwood–roared. He whirled toward Graham, desperate. “Didn’t you say you were regular soldiers? You know Lara–she’s thoughtless, sure, but she’s never malicious! Tell them to let her down!”

Graham turned to face him, his jaw tight, his stance unyielding. He placed himself in front of Theresa, a silent shield. “She nearly got our leader killed. Do wrong, pay the price.”

Lachlan’s face twisted with rage. “And you call yourselves soldiers? When the apocalypse broke out, you weren’t there for us, and now you act like savages!”

Another one…

Theresa let Lara drop back inside and stalked straight toward him.

Lachlan squared his shoulders. “Put her down and apologize, or we’ll never forgive you!”
