Annabeth felt Wynter hug her, and smiled softly, gently hugging her back before feeling her pull away, and speak. Annabeth listened before she froze and looked down at her hands. "I... I don't know... I mean, thank you... f-for your offer... B-But, I'm too scared to leave... and I'm too scared to stay... M-My mother lives here and if I'm not the one to take all the beatings, then my mother will and I... I... I can't know that it was my fault that she died..." She said shakily before feeling tears well up in her eyes. She then looked over at Mark as Wynter had asked him if he could heal her neck. Annabeth blinked before feeling him gently place his hand on her neck, her cheeks turning a light pink as she watched him... The bruises on her neck soon went away, leaving behind untouched skin... Annabeth smiled softly before bowing her head. "T-Thank you... once again..." She spoke gently, gratitude and kindness showing in her voice.
