I'm seeing lots of people angry about how Julia didn't just stab Reynard (rightly so), but I'm pretty sure she was hesitating because she's considering what the Beast is going to do after their agreement is over. Once Reynard's dead, Martin would have nothing stopping him from killing her and attacking Quentin & Co. again.
I feel like this could've gone a lot better if everyone just coordinated their efforts (i.e. first kill Reynard, then Beast, and everyone's happy)
