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.- Language:

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.
