    Summary

    How dare she, how dare she want anything lesser than him. He has blinded and ruined her friends, he has turned Andros into a ticking time bomb, he has taken everything from her! Her parents, her planet, her people; everything she lost was his doing in one way or another. How can she waste even a single thought on anyone besides him, how can she desire anything except his defeat. He should be everything to her: her reason to wake up in the morning, the reason for every one of her movements, for every single beat of her heart! She should hate him so much that she needs him, like water, like oxygen. 

    She should burn for him. Instead she dreams of sunlight and blond little Princes.

    Summary

    She's nothing. Her predecessors had been trained in their magic since infancy, each a master of their craft and powerful in their own right. This girl wields her sacred power like a sledgehammer instead of a privilege, all instinct and little finesse. He could break every bone in her body and wouldn’t even need to use magic.
    She is nothing.
    And yet he cannot get enough of her.
    ___

    Companion piece to To be hunted, to be haunted. Can be read on its own, but you'd make me Very Sad™️ and also spoil yourself for the fic with the actual plot.

    Summary

    He saw what he had expected: fear mostly and pain of course, the raw emotions of any wounded animal. But there was something there that surprised him. It wasn't courage exactly, somehow that was the wrong word for it. Discipline. Some kind of tenacious inner strength that was unusual in someone so young. This was a girl who exerted an enormous amount of control over herself. All of it working overtime not to panic.

    And yet, at the same time, she looked so impossibly fragile. Her wide blue eyes were so open, the fear so close to the surface it seemed like he could touch it if he were a bit closer. There were no walls up at all, no hint that she knew she should try not to look so much like prey. And the grip she had on herself, cost her dearly. Something inside of her seemed to be burning far too hot. Flames licking the feet of some virgin martyr.

    His cock stiffened in his trousers.

    “You heard my name.”
