[Bonus chapter] Revenge (2)

Ileus wanted to go near Anastasia and wrap his arms around her to soothe all the anxiety that she was filled with. He could sense the terror she had undergone, the hatred with which her blood was humming with and the revenge that was making it boil. A muscle in his jaw ticked. 

"You would never know the pain experienced, Aed Ruad, never! You conspired with too many people to feel what others experienced. You were too greedy back then and you are too greedy now too. Because of you so many innocents died, because of your mother's ambitions two girls lost so many formative years of life. Iona and I were broken, we were so alone that we didn't know which path to choose, we didn't know what was right and what was wrong. While you made my life a living nightmare, you made Iona a living nightmare," Anastasia rasped, as her chin trembled thinking of all they both had undergone.
