The short blonde sorcerer sat in her home, smiling to herself. After all these years, she still waited. She had been planning for decades, dragging things out for her own personal enjoyment. She was waiting for the perfect time to strike, but she had never had patience.
Skulduggery Pleasant and Valkyrie Cain had murdered her husband. Nefarian Serpine was dead because of them.
There she had been, hidden in the shadows, watching as the Skeleton Detective turned the Sceptre of Ancients on her lover. She would have her revenge, no matter how long it took. They'd taken away the one person in her life that she could rely on. They would pay.
'Give it a little while longer,' came her third name's voice.
The woman's smile grew even wider, her perfectly straight white teeth making an appearance. Despite the dark thoughts churning around inside her mind, she was calm and collected on the outside, still with that insane smile stretched across her features. Their deaths were going to be brutal, and she couldn't WAIT.
