THE REVENGE OF THE DEAD LUNA
"From me."
"I don’t want your favors."
The Goddess's voice grew soft and firm. "It is not pity. It is respect. Tell me, Aegis. What do you desire? Speak it, and it shall be yours."
For a moment, Aegis was silent, the rage in her chest twisting into something sharper. She thought of the faces of all who had betrayed her, the ones who had taken everything from her. Her hands curled into fists again, but this time, it was with purpose. "I want revenge," she said in a dangerous low voice. "I want to destroy them." Her voice grew louder and more angry with every sentence. "The people who ruined me. I want them to feel every single thing they made me feel."
