June's relationship with Serena has always been complex. At her base, Serena had sought power and position. To get her way at all costs, she has resorted to evil acts with little remorse. Yet, over the years, she has shown glimmers of a conscience and humanity. The flashback scenes of the birthing ceremony reminds us she isn't entirely selfish and unfeeling. But we always see her return to her base.
June has had to do some horrible things to survive. What she's had to go through lead her to cross the line and torture and murder Fred, something that haunts her. But she's mostly followed a certain moral code. As much as she wants to hate Serena - as much as Serena deserves this hate and all the horrible things June fantasies about doing yo her - June's moral compass usually guides her to do the right thing. She's reminded of the times Serena showed glimmers of compassion.
It's poignant that Serena helps June to find true self, albeit unintentionally. The mercy, compassion, and humanity June showed Serena realigns June, reminding her who she is, despite what she did to Fred. It's an evolution of their relationship.
And then BAM!!! Luke blows it all to bits.
