And plenty of time to regret it. This was the perfect revenge I had prepared for all of them.

But unfortunately, she couldn't because she was dead. "They betrayed me," Carmen spat, her voice trembling with rage. "My husband. My best friend. They left me to die like I was nothing. They...they killed me." Nyx tilted her head, her expression contemplative. "You seek revenge, yet you are powerless in this state. What would you give to make them pay?" "Anything," Carmen said without hesitation, keeping her voice steady. "I'll give anything." Nyx's eyes gleamed, a faint sinister smile curving her lips. "Be careful what you wish for, mortal. Vengeance comes at a price."

I swung my legs casually, watching Daniel's temple veins bulge with malicious amusement. My brother once asked why I didn’t simply ruin him outright. I'd smiled slyly. As they say, the best revenge is destroying what someone values most. I wanted to ruin everything Daniel cared about. "Kandice Henderson! After all our time together, I never realized you were so vengeful!” Seeing negotiation was hopeless, Daniel furiously threw his documents and pointed at my face. I stood up, my jeweled ring catching the light. "Just figuring that out? I'm going to make you lose everything. Isn't your company your precious baby? Don't you care most about your reputation, dreaming every night of being on top?

he walked towards her, making her realise she spoke the words out aloud, his reply confused her even more leaving her frustrated with no answers “Revenge.” “It can turn the most righteous man to the villain, it can ruin lives just like I will ruin yours, darling.”

I will surely get to the root of this and get revenge! Those wicked people that murdered my parents should get ready for a taste of my vengeance!

It’s the first real smell in the entire place. And books. Hundreds of them. Not decorator books arranged by color. Real books. Worn spines. Dog-eared pages. I run my fingers along the shelves. Financial theory. Biographies of Carnegie and Rockefeller. Philosophy. History. And fiction. I pull out a copy of The Count of Monte Cristo. The spine creaks. Pages are yellowed, soft as cloth. I flip through and stop at the margin notes inked in neat, sharp handwriting. "Revenge consumes the avenger," written next to a passage about Edmond Dantès.

[Valerie] ** Three Months Ago ** I had all the tools I needed to execute the revenge I was hoping to wreak on the one who had robbed me of so much in my life. It plagued me for days on end - if it was the right thing to do. I sat at my desk in the library, paging through Stephen King’s “Doctor Sleep” but the words printed on the pages seemed to fuze and look like black lines and blotches across the pages. I had lost interest the moment I opened the first page, so how I was already on page fifty three was a mystery to me, because I couldn’t recall any of the words I had read.

"You need to be careful, I don't think it will be easy to mess up with him." "I know. I need to play with his pride first.." "I know that you're trying your best for this revenge but please don't get hurt in the process. I rather have you just kill them right away instead of playing with their emotions." "It won't be fair, Wilson. For years, Rector Reyes tortured my parents. I won't let him die easily, he needs to experience the pain first then I will kill him with my own hands." I said in a cold tone. "How about Alan? He doesn't know a thing about this, so why attacking him?"

The isolation that had once been about survival was now about peace. Raven sat on the porch swing, a laptop balanced on her knees as she worked on the book that had become her passion project. The working title was "Justice Served Cold: A Story of Redemption and Revenge," though she was still debating whether to publish it under her real name or maintain the fiction of Raven Steele.

Then back at me. "Do you know what the best revenge is?" I said. Grace looked at me. The question landing differently than it would have if I'd asked without context. "What?" "Living well. Being happy. Refusing to let the people who hurt you define you. That's the best revenge. Not hurting them back. Not making them pay. Just building a life so full and so real that what they did to you becomes just one chapter of a much longer story." Grace considered this with the seriousness she brought to all significant ideas.
