“Thaddeus, don’t get too worked up over this,” she soothed, her voice a soft lullaby against his rage, “He’s just a lowly cur, barking from the safety of his screen. I don’t give a damn, and neither should you”

“How can i not?” Thaddeus’s breath was erratic, his fists trembling within her gentle grasp, “Byron suffered because of him, and I’ll make sure Matthew pays double.”
