Aoife grinned instead, showing her teeth like an animal. "What? It's a barter, Joyce . It's a barter that you are now taking part in because you love your sister."
Love her?
Hatred what is what she felt to her sister at the moment, but begrudgingly squashed it in her chest.
If she heard her say that one more time, Joyce was going to smack her.
"You should do your sisterly duties towards Me. I need your help."
"Sisterly duties?" Joyce chuckled. " When have we ever truly been sisters, why don't you tell me about that fast? I don't love you, nobody can-Ah!" Her head whipped to the side at the sheer force she had received on her cheek.
It took Joyce a second to regsiter what her sister had done. She had slapped her.
Slowly, moving her head back to center where she would directly be facing a fee, she said, "you… You just slapped me?"
