Definitely shouldn’t have helped her. I told myself it was for Amity, that, after today, it would have been foolish for me to think I could protect that little girl on my own. Arrogant even, with the threats we faced in this forest. I told myself I needed Piper’s arm to heal, and that having it hang limp like that, straining tissue and sinews, would only leave her limited in her ability to defend herself. Limited in her ability to defend Amity.
