“You are more than what he made you,' he said. 'Do you understand? That isn't the strength. The shit her tried to carve out of you is. You have every reason to keep going. Now more than ever. And I say this knowing- knowing how stupid it is for me, of all people, to say it.' He wasn't talking about the Kejari. He was talking about something bigger. And his fingers clutched mine, trembling, as he hissed, 'So don't you fucking dare stop fighting, princess. It would break my damned heart.”
