LOREN
”It wasn’t you. Not really.” Loren had said as much to every person with the blight—and pretty much everyone he’d spoken to—and Phoebe was no exception. Unfortunately, he had no Roses left to make her see reason, and there was no other way to get through to her that he knew of.
However, when she said the flowers had already begun to work, he halted. He didn’t dare believe her, because she was blighted and would say anything she thought might hurt him. But if there was even a ghost of a chance that she was telling the truth, then he needed to know. ”What do you mean, it has already begun to work?” He ignored the rest of her self-pitying words, knowing they were unimportant and that it was just the blight speaking.

But don’t be weary if it’s broken
Families are like that—
they’re split up and always torn.
