She felt a sinking feeling in the pit of her stomach at the words the Lilium spoke, it seemed with the sickly sweet words that fell from his maw she became numb. She'd believed from the start that he'd played farther than she could believe and had broken the spirit of the young de le Poer captive. They had almost been of the same age, Firefly had been the older, and in her mind she'd never thought herself a child, not even when it came down to the truth, not even when she'd been ben beaten and taunted in Inferni, not until she'd been his plaything to the savage beast from the clan, when she had absolutely no control. "Only you..." she spat at him, hurt that he'd think of her imprisonment as a holiday, and think of the deeds that had befalled the youth as fun. She could bend to his wicked and dark ways, but taking another against all will, taking a child was more than she could ever think on doing.
Tears blinded her emerald orbs for a moment, she blinked and the face before her was not Haku's, but Samuel's. Her fangs glittered as she lunged at him, she wanted him to feel the pain she'd felt, to taste his own blood.. yet she knew he wouldn't know what it was like, not in the end, remaining loyal to one's pack.. and having everything ripped away from you for believing they might be worth it in the end. She slammed into him, her voice breaking as she snarled. "For you! Why was I foolish enough to think you'd care!" She'd hurt him bad before the battle, but he'd hurt her as well. The ashes had settled and she'd believed that maybe there was still embers hiding beneith the feathery soot.. but had she been wrong all along.
