“I can’t—I can’t do this again—” he finally gasped out. “I can’t care for someone again. I can’t take it.” She blindly found his face, pressing her hand against his cheek, felt tears slide along her palm and down her wrist.
“I’m sorry. I’m so sorry, Kaine.” She said it again and again.

“Don’t die, Kaine,” she said.
The line he walked frightened her. If the array was the punishment for a failure, what would the price of betrayal be?
A smirk twisted his mouth as he looked at her. “There are far worse fates than dying, Marino.”
She nodded. “I know. But that one you don’t come back from.”
He gave a bitter laugh. “All right, then, but only because you asked.”

“It’s your choice” my ass it’s her choice
