I burst through the door, and the trio gave me panicked looks seeing the state I was in.

"___!" They shouted my name in unison.

I was still in shock, and the dried tears on my face left stains. They saw how I trembled, and Gilbert held me as my knees gave out, and I fell into his embrace hyperventilating, unable to hold back tears of guilt.

I wanted to tell them everything, but I couldn't. I wanted them to understand, but they didn't, though they tried.

They'd given me everything, and I'd done nothing in return to prove how much I cared. Why did they care about me? Why?

"I'm so sorry!" I blubbered.

They'd never seen me in such a panicked state, and it scared them.

"Chica, calm down, okay? It's going to be okay, what happened? How much of this blood is yours?" Antonio said hurriedly; I could barely make out what he was saying.

I couldn't answer him. I was sobbing, but no tears came out; I'd already cried so much.

"___, talk to us, s'il te plait," Francis begged.

He was at the end of his rope with me but simultaneously panicking. He loved me, and that's why he was so frustrated I wasn't telling them everything.

"I-it's not that I d-don't trust you," I wailed, "I-I just can't tell you. I'm so so sorry. I'm so sorry; please forgive me, I'm sorry, I'm—"

Gilbert hugged me tightly and muffled my apologies.

"Tell us what happened. Otherwise, we don't know 'ow to 'elp." Francis said softly, petting my head.

"Alice."

"Who?"

"Greta's name is actually Alice...and she...she only came because she didn't have a choice. I-I tried Francis, I really did! She wouldn't listen, I couldn't capture her, I just, I-" and I began shaking again.

"You're covered in blood, amore...let's get you cleaned up," he hushed and took me from Gilbert's arms, who grumbled, glaring at Francis for taking me.

Francis ignored him and carried me upstairs as I clung to his chest.

"I'm going to die," I whimpered, and he froze in his steps.

"What?"

"Vhat do you mean? Vhat happened?" Gilbert panicked and pushed Antonio out of his way to run to my side.

"If you don't turn me, I'll die..."

"You know why we haven't-"

I cut Francis off and looked him in the eyes.

"It's okay..."

He looked shocked and looked back to Gilbert and Antonio as if to confirm he heard me right.

"You...you're consenting?" He asked, baffled like he'd never expected me to.

I nodded, looking away from him shyly.

He blushed but gave me a stern look, becoming very serious.

"O-okay...let's get you cleaned and changed first..." he mumbled and looked back at Gilbert and Antonio, who were still in disbelief.

It didn't matter anymore if I was ready or not. I'd do anything to save my life, but somehow I felt like I was using them. Gilbert had said before if he enjoyed it, then he didn't mind but still...

Francis knew I was consenting out of fear which is why he wasn't leaping for joy.

Gilbert ran the water, and Francis sat me down, kneeling in front of me.
