A/N Recently, I have come to love Aphrodite and I want to write about her. This is inspired by one of her lines in "Marked". It's my first HoN fic, if you have anything to say at all please review. I'll take concrit, but please don't flame. It's supposed to be a like a jumble of thoughts, but if you can't understand it I may edit.
Disclaimer: Did you see this in "Marked"? No? Then it's obvious I don't own it. No copyright infringement intended, this was written for fun :D
Don't you know who I am? I'm Aphrodite. I'm leader of the Dark Daughters. No-one ever crosses me, ever. Back down, little girl, crawl back into the little hole you came from and take your nerdy friends with you.
And no, you won't take him, you won't, because he's mine. Why do you think he hasn't had a girlfriend for the past few months? Because he's mine and he belongs to me. This House of Night belongs to me, too. Don't you know that, you bitch? I'm the High Priestess in training. But you wouldn't know about that, would you? You've been here all of two days and you're judging me, working against me, if only you knew what it was really like.
If only you knew Neferet and the things she does. If only you could know the truth. That you're a pawn in a long game, and I am too. But here's the difference between you and me: I know and you don't. I may be blonde, but I'm not stupid. She's my mentor too, mine too!
This isn't a gift, it's a curse.
It's when it happens at night that it's the worse.
Nyx...why do you do this to me? Why do you put me through this pain? What have I done? What did I ever do? It's your fault, you know. Your fault, your fault, your fault! You can't...you won't...you'll never understand what it's like to be human! I mean...a fledgling. I'm not human anymore...so why does it still hurt?
Still hurts, somebody help me, it hurts. Even when I hurt others to get rid of it, to pass it on to them so I'm not alone anymore, it hurts.
I know what's going to happen. I can see it. Neferet is going to take over the world...with...with...with whom? Or what? I can't quite see but...
I don't care. I don't care for this world that hurts me.
So, you can just bring it on Zoey. Because I'll play the game: yes I will. I'll play to win, and I'll be the best player of all.
