Clementine:
"Oh, look at me, I’m Clementine Stark. I’m such a sassy biatch who doesn’t give an F about anyone’s feelings," Oriana mocked, turning her hair messy and posing seductively, something I never did.
"Oh, and by the way, I’ll sleep with everyone, and I’d love to be shared, but I won’t share anyone, even when I have a mate," she continued, spinning around and twerking.
I stood in the doorway. My mates were sitting with their full attention on her, except for Ian. As expected, he wasn’t around.
I kept watching as tears blurred my vision and my fists clenched.
"Oh, and by the way, I’ll also get myself in danger and then ask everyone to save me," she added, pulling her top lower so her chest was half exposed.
"Oops, sorry, I guess I’m just naturally very seductive," she teased.
She could see me, I was sure of it. She was facing me, while the others faced her. Troy was on his bed, leaning on one elbow.
He laughed, along with Yorick and Haiden, who gave each other a high-five.
The sight shattered me. I never thought that was how they saw me. Because why else would they let her mimic me and say all that?
"Oh, oh! And that whole argument we had, the one you saw," Haiden said, urging her to keep going. "Please, mention some incident from earlier you witnessed."
"Oh, yes, I’m so jealous of Oriana. Can you guys please pay attention to me? If not, I’ll threaten you with rejection, Haiden," she whined in a fake voice, touching her chest and sliding her hand between her legs.
I let her act like a fool for a few minutes, waiting to see if anyone would defend me. I didn’t want to react too fast and be told later that I’d overreacted.
When it became clear none of them would stand up for me, I had to do it myself. I stormed inside, catching the crooked smile she gave Yorick.
I could tell she was side-eyeing me. She knew I was there.
I rushed at her, grabbed her by the hair, and yanked her off the bed.
She screamed, probably not expecting me to go that far.
"What the fuck?!" Troy shouted. 𝒇𝒓𝒆𝒆𝙬𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝒎
I dragged her and started punching her in the face. I knew violence wasn’t the answer, but I couldn’t stop myself.
The first hit landed hard against her cheek, making her yelp.
I raised my hand again, but Yorick caught my arm, and Haiden grabbed me from behind, lifting me off the ground as I kicked wildly, still gripping a handful of her hair.
"You fucking bitch! After everything I’ve done for you, this is how you repay me?" I screamed, thrashing in Haiden’s hold, trying to get to her.
"Get that bitch off me!" Oriana yelled.
Troy grabbed my wrist and squeezed until I let go of her hair. Haiden dragged me away.
"What the fuck is wrong with you?" Yorick shouted, rushing to Oriana’s side.
While Haiden pulled me back, I watched Oriana hug Yorick. From the corner of her eye, she looked right at me and then grinned.
Fire burned through my chest. As she clung to Yorick, he held her tightly, glaring at me with anger.
