She is her mother. Ben could never see that. And the walls were never thick enough to muffle out his secrets.

No longer daddy’s little girl, that adoring, petulant fan, she dangles temptation in front of Richard like some neutered junkyard dog.

She knows what he is, what he wants, what it takes to make him scream her name. But mostly, she knows what he needs. And for that end, Ben’s purpose has been served. Only she can give it to him now, and what he can give her is vengeance.

Daddy’s been a bad, bad man.

"It’s time," Alex whispers one night, naked at his side.

"Why not you?" he asks, tracing one finger along her spine.

"I still have my soul," she answers.

"What makes you think I don’t?"

"What makes you think you do?"

I love the last two lines. Perfect. I'm kinda amazed at how much I like this. I would have never considered the pairing. Great job doll.

Thanks so much! I'm calling this experiment a pass. I may write more of them.

On a totally unrelated topic, I'm super glad you commented over here because I have a crapload of your fic bookmarked to finish reading (the amazing zombie!verse for one) and I keep forgetting! *tears out hair* I am such a bad person! haha.
