In reply, she gave a very unladylike snort of amusement.
"No," was the flat reply.
She enjoyed flattery and praise--when it was real. But truth had always been a bigger turn on for her than compliments, and the question hadn't been a covered attempt at fishing for some.
It was some draw, some pull at a magnetic opposite. She had never been very nice, had never been very kind, but she was good, and with the visions and the light and the other gifts she had received, the Powers That Be had decided to amplify that goodness in her, fill her with it until sometimes, it literally shone out of her.
Being faced with the opposite of that, with someone who was filled with darkness? It created some sort of pull, whether she wanted it or not.
