Summary
Lace makes it abundantly clear that she did not want to be saved from the Void, and she and Hornet go their separate ways. After a time, Hornet has shifted her focus to helping bugs rebuild Pharloom into a safe home free of the haunting. However, Lace has returned, and she wants revenge for the existence that Hornet condemned her to. Hornet would be done with her swiftly, but something…a memory, a feeling, a dream…is holding her back.
OR, an enemies-to-lovers continuation fic where Lace becomes feral and develops an obsession with killing Hornet, but Hornet has several complicated qualms about killing her back. Spiders, lesbians, spider lesbians, and much more!
M rating for sexual themes/innuendo, but there will be nothing explicit—mostly just exploration on Lace/Hornet’s relationship. All chapters with sexual themes will have additional warnings in the first author's note. The "21 chapters" is subject to change, but currently that's how many I have outlined. Updates every Thursday!Bookmarked by Cricketune
