hit you the heavy silence returned to the hallway i knelt down in front of the kids you okay guys lily didn't speak but her hands stopped shaking she looked up at me with big frightened yet hopeful eyes let's get you back to your room come on I offered my hand I expected Lucas to swat it away but he didn't he just looked at his

sister hesitated and then slowly placed his small cold hand in mine where are your rooms I'll walk you back I looked around the cramped freezing utility room near the servant's stairs. Bare walls, no toys,

a thin blanket over a mattress on the floor. You two sleep here? Always have. Don't sleep here tonight.
