Paranoia Never Looked This Good (YJ:Invasion) [2/3]

In Book Two of the NLTG series, Pyrrha and the Light prepare for the invasion of the Reach. Kaldur'ahm's involvement with the Light proves dangerous for Pyrrha as her secrets and inner demons threaten to ruin everything she's attained. As her suspicions of Kaldur'ahm and nightmares of her past consume her, Lex misreads the situation and sees the Atlantean as a threat to his relationship with Pyrrha. When he finally goes too far in an effort to control her, Pyrrha finds herself torn between love and survival.

While the Justice League and the Team are busy saving the world, who will save Pyrrha?

"This is over," I said quietly, pulling my hands from his. Panic filled Lex's eyes. I couldn't stand to see it so I turned to leave.

"Darling, please! If you need a break then take all the time in the world but don't," he grabbed my arm tight and pulled me back, "Don't do this, Pyrrha." I looked at his hold on my arm remembering how Nightwing used to pull on me, how my foster parents used to yank me around, how anyone in authority thought they had the right to grab me.

"I forgot how much I hated that," I whispered to myself. I glared at Lex's wild eyes. "What made you think you can grab me like this? You are nothing to me."
