Fetish

Warning: Extreme Violence Ahead!

THE LOUD SCREAMS of Alessandra and Lyra are banging my head. They are still running for almost an hour now, Valor just wants to play. "Go honey, have fun Valor!" Gloria cheered Anne's pet.

"Why is Valor here again?" she rolled her eyes at me. "Duh, did you even listen or you're just forgetful?" I hissed. "Just answer the damn question!" she crossed her arms.

"Anne just wants her pet to enjoy this day. It's his birthday today." Oh, but.. "Where the fuck is she?"

"She's still searching for the best gift."

"And she thinks my captives are his playmates?"

"Yeah." she said as a matter of fact.

I checked the time from Rolex wristwatch. "It's already three in the afternoon. Today is Sunday, so we're free."

"Let start the fucking party!" Until somebody shouts out of nowhere. "Okay, she's here."

"Wow, It's a miracle that Leo's not with you today." Anne raised her eyebrow. "Why, you choose him over me?" She dramatically put a hand on her exaggerated chest.

"Yeah, because he's more useful than you." She formed a fist and lifted her middle finger and flipped me off. "But you can't live without me, bitch." She was about to throw her goods when Gloria stepped in.

"Bitches, shut the fuck up and let's party. Or Valor will consume your captives, Hime." I noticed that Alessandra and Lyra are both injured. "Should I treat their wounds?" Gloria asked. "Nah, it's just a few scratches."

"It's far from their guts and brain. It's not fatal at all."

I snatch the wine from Anne and sit on my special throne. She tosses the wine glass. I immediately catch it and pour some for myself. "Smells awesome, how old is this?"

"A century." she said nonchalantly and poured some wine on her glass. "Now, what are you up to? You used to celebrate Valor's birthday with a simple meal." Gloria curiously inquired. I closed my eyes and leaned to listen more.

"Coven is making their moves. I can feel them everywhere. I kinda worry for Leo's welfare." Anne said while quietly stirring and staring at her glass of wine. "As expected from her."

"Don't you trust your man?" I opened my eyes at Gloria's question. "Of course, but I can't trust those bitches around him."

"Come on, you guys have been through a lot. I'm sure this is just a piece of cake." I commented before sipping some of my wine. "Yeah, I know." Now she looks confused.

"But, I worry about you more." Gloria's attention now at me and she paused before bringing the main conflict, "I heard you let Chua enter your life."

"I can handle myself, very -"

"I know, but, just like Gloria said, that guy, I don't think he's the one." I let out a chuckle at Anne's remarks.

"Are you cupid's assistant now? a matchmaker?" I jokingly replied. "I don't want her or anybody to interfere with my plan, it'll be messier."

"Duh, I'm just sharing what my intuition tells."

"Though I settle myself from the field rather than the bird's eye view, I know our opponents very well." Silence invades us, no one speaks after that. Until, Gloria decided to sit between us.

"That's an intense topic." She munched the smoked turkey. "Why not enjoy this day and throw the serious bitches in work?"

Anne shrugged. "Well, this is my boy's birthday. Let's have fun." Gloria glanced at me. "Yeah, right."

"You know what, why don't we recall how the three of us met?" Gloria giddily suggested. "I think she's quite in a good mood or she's already drunk."

"That's almost ten years ago!" Gloria stated with glee. Anne just nodded in agreement.

"It's like you're saying that we're too old." I simply said, trying to provoke Gloria a little, and she did not disappoint.

"Are you already drunk?" I asked Gloria. She widely grinned. "Is that why it took you 30 minutes just to take Alessandra and Lyra back to their cells?" Gloria swiftly snatched the bottle of champagne from my grip before starting to reminisce and not answering my question.

"Remember when we first met? you look pathetic Anne." Gloria laughed like a retard. "While this princess-bitch behaves like a royalty. She can't eat lunch without a perfect set of utensils." Anne giggled. "Well look at these two, they're teaming up, I see."

I shifted and fixed myself in my seat. "How about you? The principal almost had a heart attack when he discovered that you're watering the roses in your garden with blood." Gloria stuck her tongue out like a kid. "They grew up fine and aesthetically pleasing in everyone's eyes though."

"And you," I pointed my glass towards Anne. "Do you remember how we used to defend you from the bullies? You act like a damsel in distress, but you're actually a psycho in disguise."

"She loves to see blood everywhere. She's a messy killer. And lastly, she doesn't know how to control her patience-meter. Well, kinda like me."

"So you want war, huh." Anne said before she finished her glass.

Anne smirked. "Do you remember yourself being jealous because Theo used to notice me?" My gaze flew towards the window. "That asshole is my very first ex. I don't even know how the hell did I fall from that skunk."

"Eww, as if." I replied before taking a sip on my wine and plastered a look of disgust on my face. She just shook her head at my response.

"Then you, Gloria, you used to steal glances at Gavin before. I know you are fond of him." Gloria playfully tosses the wineglass towards Anne's direction. Anne easily dodged it. It's a good thing that my friends are nimble.

"That guy can't even keep his sword from anyone's sheath." Anne laughed at her own remark. "Anne loves to pull embarrassing and disgusting memories."

"You know what, you guys are boring me. Why not settle this with battles?" Gloria giddy suggested, displaying her own toys. "Geez, this childish bitch wants to mess with my toys."

"Yeah, then you're just gonna trash my place afterwards." I replied with pure sarcasm and rolled my eyes at them. We're in my room at the mansion.

"Don't worry, we can clean them after."

"Your mess, your chores."

She stood up and ran towards the lift. I know what she's planning. Anne just chuckled. "Let's go before it gets filthy. We know how neat-freak you are."

In no time, we reach the deepest hell also known as my very-own dungeon. Anne walked inside first. She's in a hurry, because we both know how reckless a drunk-ass Gloria can be.

"Goodness, put down that poisonous kunai!" I shouted at Gloria. She's about to kill Jayden. Together with my lovely ex, Theo-they're both tied from each pole with apples on top of their heads.

Gloria protested. "You mean - killjoy bitches!" She then tossed the kunai and it landed near to where my captives were located. "Come on, entertain me! You guys are boring me!''

"Now, she's entering her dramatic stage." I commented under my breath.

Anne sighed at our dear friend's state. "For fuck's sake Gloria, we play not kill." I calmly said, reproving Gloria's action.

"Well, that's our rule for our captives not in the field."

"And I know right, Hime." I rolled my eyes at her drunken answer.

"Let's just drink and eat whatever we like." Anne suggested.

"Really Anne? Knowing Gloria, I'm sure she won't just leave without a blast." I rolled my eyes at my thought.

She grabbed my favorite needles and the apples exploded from my captives' heads. "Gloria Marie Victoiré Greene!" I shouted out of pure shock. She stuck her tongue before leaving us both.

"Fuck this mess!" I cursed in anger. Anne followed Gloria. "Between the three of us, only those can tame each other when severely drunk." I clicked the automated cleaning machines before I left and followed the two.

"Why the fuck did she even get wasted? She's the weakest bitch among the three of us when it comes to alcohol tolerance. I am the mid-placer, while Anne loves to drink any alcoholic beverage like a casual drink. However, when Leo entered the picture, she rarely touched any of her bottles. The guy was so protective that he even made himself as her personal sleeping pill."

I came across Anne who's going to the kitchen. "Is she in a better state?" I inquired, annoyance and concern plastered at my face. She nodded. "Yeah, as usual, war happened." As I can see at her disheveled appearance. "Well, Gloria can be aggressive like a ferocious beast during these times."

I walked to my now half destroyed seating room. I sat on the sofa opposite, but facing Gloria. "She looks like an idiot with a shitty smile on her face. She's definitely wasted." I crossed my legs and laid my head on my palm while silently studying Gloria's face. Anne came from the kitchen with a glass of water. "Here, drink some water." she offered it to Gloria who now slowly got up from laying on the sofa and taking the water and drinking it still with an idiotic smile plastered on her face.

I raised my brow at Anne, asking a silent question. "She stole the two remaining bottles of wine." "Oh, that's why." I turn my gaze to Gloria. "Both centuries old?" She followed my gaze to Gloria and smirked before replying. "Yeah, maybe she's stressed too."

Anne continues with her sentiments. "Between the three of us, she's the most secretive one. She loves to invade privacy, but too scared to open up-so she put up that façade." I followed her movement with my gaze, as she slowly walked towards the nearest seat and sat down. "This bitch surely knows how to hit a nerve." I shook my head before responding. "Is this what you call a heart to heart talk?"

Anne rolled her eyes. "If it is, the bloody hearts beating in front of us now." I scoffed at her annoyed answer. "Damn, she's a certified killjoy."

"I know, that was supposed to be a joke, it's corny bitch..." It's quite obvious that she's forcing herself not to laugh.

"Shut up, where's the birthday celebrant?"

As if on cue, we heard a loud roar and sobs.

"Fucking shit, Valor!"

"My playmates are in danger, quick!"

"Damn Gloria. I thought she took care of those two." Anne and I ran towards the dungeon through the hidden stairs. I almost laughed at the scene down at my dungeon. Lyra is now pale from fear, while Alessandra was unconscious and Anne's trying to calm her babies down. "I actually forgot that Alessandra has leontari phobia, meaning, she's terrified of lions."

Moments later, Lyra also passed out from complete fear. "Well, would you look at that. It seems that they both have more lives than a cat." Anne carried Alessandra to her cell, despite her disgust. I just dragged Lyra by her thick hair on the floor since I'm too lazy to carry her back to her cell.

We successfully place them inside the safe place. Anne puffed the hand sanitizer for the nth time. "You know what, I still wonder. How the hell did you manage to capture Lyra and Jayden? When both Leo and I agreed to let them live miserably."

"Bitch, you know the reason why I held my captives very well."

"I know, but I'm just curious. So, spill it now!" I rolled my eyes at her. "Ugh, so bossy."

"I seriously let the officials serve justice. But those two were planning something behind our backs. You know no one gets away from me. Well as a matter of fact, I saw them stalking you love birds and even spent their remaining fortune just to get even."

"This dungeon is both a place that both protects and punishes each one of its captives."

"After all, this is not just about our odd fetish. We are not just ordinary sadistic individuals."

"Yeah, right." my eyebrow raised. "Now get the fuck out of my house and go home."

"This is how we cherish our friendship. We do it harshly, like them raw, and comfy."
