A Spartan's Sorrow (The Grecian Women Trilogy, #2)

by Hannah M. Lynn

There he had taken down a deer that had been so quick, so swift, he doubted even Artemis herself could have felled it. A fact he’d told his hunting party with pride.

“It is no animal she requires,” he said, with a voice that could have been a thousand years old. “It is a child. Your fairest daughter, Iphigenia.”

Note to self: read the work in which this poor girl IS NOT murdered by her own father for your own sanity.

In moments like this, with her children gathered around her, she felt as though the joy of what she had might just outweigh all the terror she had suffered, and she would try to focus on what he had given her, not what he had taken away.

ding dong you are wrong, he does not feel remorse at all
