They lie next to each other, silken sheets caressing their naked skin, fingers intertwined and foreheads touching.

“Tell me a truth,” Helen whispers and Cassandra smiles, for she knows that finally somebody believes in her words. But her smile turns bitter for there is a vision that plagued her thoughts for a while now.

“You will fall in love with a man, and there will be war over your beauty,” she finally confesses.

Helen sighs and moves even closer to Cassandra.

“Tell me a lie,” she barely breathes, but the seeress can hear her anyway.

Cassandra lays an arm around the blonde. She ponders on her words for a moment and finally says: “You’re not going to be worth it.”

Oh man, I love this. It's fatalistic as Greek myth often is, and bittersweet in the best way.
