“Please, let me take your coats,” I gushed, doing my best to give her A-grade hospitality. “I’ll pour you guys a drink after.”

“Don’t bother,” Barbie Girl said, as Calisto handed me her jacket. “Her mixed drinks taste like ass.”

I rolled my eyes. “You mixed your own drink,” I pointed out.

“Whatever,” she muttered. “You didn’t store your vodka properly or something or maybe your juice went bad. Regardless, your drink tastes terrible.”

“It’s probably the aftertaste of the right angled dicks you shove in your mouth,” I snapped.

Calisto and Kara both gave me a puzzled look.

“Never mind,” I muttered.

Kara took her jacket and handed it to me, along with Barbie Girl’s which I had tossed outside my door.

“I found this lying on the ground outside,” Kara pointed out.

“Oh, geez,” I faked ignorance. “No idea how that got out there. Thanks for pointing that out.”

“I really love your place,” Kara said as both she and Calisto made their way to the living room. “Your style is lovely.”

With both their backs turned to me, I opened the door and tossed the Barbie bitch’s jacket back outside the door, and then hung up both Calisto and Kara’s coats.

“She probably didn’t pick out the décor,” the Barbie Girl said. “It’s probably whatever rich ape that she’s sleeping with. Really Calisto, I didn’t know you kept such shabby company.”

“The ape you’re talking about is my brother,” Calisto pointed out, “And my shabby company is the Golden Virgin.”

The Barbie Girl laughed. “I knew there was a peasant quality about this girl from the moment I saw her at the gym. Even when I was talking to you that night, I knew you weren’t worthy of being at the celebration.”

“What are you talking about?” I asked. “I don’t recall ever speaking with a queen-sized twat at Shadow’s party.”

“I was the girl in the swan mask, who stood next to you.”

Suddenly all the pieces fit together. I should have known.

“Bria, you’re insulting my brother and his judgment,” Calisto said.

“So what?” Bria said, clearly not caring. “Your brother has always been an idiot, and he knows it. I’ve told him to his face many times before.”

“You only think he’s an idiot because he refused to sleep with you that one time,” Calisto pointed out.

I snorted. All of a sudden, everything was making sense. Bria was the jealous bitch who couldn’t handle the fact that Shadow had no interest in her. Added to the fact that he chose a “peasant” to be his soul mate must have been eating away at her like acid. And the oh-so-sweet icing on the cake was the revelation that the Golden Virgin was thesamegirl, moi, who told her that she dressed like a whore in the gym just last week.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about Calisto,” Bria said, feigning ignorance. “I never wanted to sleep with your brother.”

“Yes you did,” Calisto said. “He even told me to keep you away from him; that you were like a mad dog in heat.”

“Shadow made me cum twice,” I announced proudly, deciding that now was a good time as any to rub it in the blonde bitch’s face.

Suddenly all eyes turned to me.

Too far Aria, too far,I thought as I saw Calisto raise her brow.

“I’ll go make everyone a drink,” I declared, as I left the living room and entered into the kitchen, red-faced.

This was going to be an interesting night.
