CHAPTER SIX

Violet couldn't sleep after the revelation, but set her sister up to sleep when Ellie decided to go to bed.
Violet sat next to her sister guns drawn as Joel and Tess sat directly across from her staring at Ellie sleeping. Her sister started muttering in her sleep, something incoherent before jumping awake at almost the same time Ellie did.
