Weaponizing One's Love

A Sequel to Lena Luthor: Supergirl's True Kryptonite

They say that loving someone is one of the bravest things you can do, especially if you've been burned by it before. So, what happens when that very thing is used against you? What would you do if loving your partner was the thing that would kill them?

After the Crisis event and Leviathan, Lena Luthor thought her life was starting to stabilize. She and Kara were closer than ever now that they had revealed their secrets. And while Lena still struggled with knowing that her best friend was National City's superhero, she was beginning to lower her walls. However, just as peace settled over National City, Lillian intervened. In a twisted attempt to show her stepdaughter that her feelings for Kara are misplaced, she kidnaps the heroine and subjects her to the influence of red kryptonite in hopes that it would reveal the danger she poses. However, it doesn't go as planned, and Lex, seeing an opportunity, weaponizes the one thing Lena thought was safe - her feelings for her best friend.
