Styx (Goddesses of the Underworld #2)

76. Resignation

Resignation

Asteria’s hand clasped mine.

‘You are safe here, Styx. And whatever

comes, we can face it together.’

I winced and shut my eyes.

‘No. This was… this was bigger.

It was something different.’

My hands shook and I looked at them,

Then looked back at Asteria.

‘I think… I may have to

do as my father has asked.’
