Sleeping With A Friend's Boyfriend

There was an underlying threat in Ava's tone, a silent demand that Elara should beg her to stop. Ava wanted to use this situation as leverage, to make Elara desperate, humiliated, and completely at her mercy. The power to blackmail her, to control her, was right at her fingertips.

But fuck that.

Elara refused to give Ava the satisfaction of seeing her crumble. No matter how much fear coiled in her stomach, she would never show it. She held her composure, her expression indifferent, almost mocking, as she stared at Ava like she was nothing more than an insignificant pest.

Ava, expecting at least a flicker of panic, grew irritated when Elara continued to act unbothered. How dare she? Did she think this was a joke?

With a huff, Ava looked down at her phone, her fingers tapping against the screen as she spoke coldly.

"Fine then. I don't need you to beg." Her lips curled into a cruel smile. "Just reporting you and knowing you'll be punished is enough satisfaction for me."

And with that, she really dialed Sophia's number.

That was when Elara truly panicked.

Shit. Ava wasn't bluffing. If Sophia answered—if Ava told her what Elara had done—there was no way she'd get out of this unscathed. Sneaking out while under house arrest was already bad, but if her parents found out?

She was fucked.

A split second. That was all Elara had. She had to stop Ava.

Her mind raced. She couldn't snatch the phone, it would only make her look more desperate. She needed something bigger. Stronger. Something that would make Ava regret ever trying to cross her.

Think, Elara. Think fast.

Her mind spun, desperately searching for something—anything—that could make Ava stop.

And then... it clicked.

Something she would have never used under normal circumstances. But Ava left her no choice.

Taking a steady breath, Elara stepped closer, so close that her lips almost brushed against Ava's ear. Then, in a voice as smooth as silk and as sharp as a blade, she whispered:

"You know, Ava... I know what you did with Sophia's boyfriend."

Ava froze.

For a split second, her entire body went rigid, her throat suddenly dry. But then, as if forcing herself to regain control, she scoffed, her voice sharp and dismissive.

"What are you talking about?" Ava snapped, though there was a tiny waver in her voice. "What's my business with Sophia's boyfriend?"

Elara chuckled, dark and amused. "Oh, Ava, do you really want me to spell it out for you?"

Ava didn't move. Didn't breathe.

Elara tilted her head, letting the words drip from her lips like venom.

Then, she pulled back just enough to meet Ava's gaze, her eyes gleaming with confidence. "Fine. I'll just tell Sophia how you fucked her boyfriend."

Ava gasped, eyes widening in shock.

"How... how did you—"

She stopped mid-sentence, realizing she had just misspoken. She had reacted too quickly, revealing that Elara wasn't lying. But she gritted her teeth, forcing herself to recover.

"You're talking nonsense," Ava spat, her expression hardening. "Don't slander me without proof."

Elara grinned. "Oh, darling Ava, I do have proof."

She pulled out her phone, tapping on the screen before pressing play. The club's music was loud, but the recording played at a volume only they could hear.

And the moment Ava heard it, her face drained of all color.

The unmistakable sounds of moaning and heavy breathing filled the small space between them, along with the lewd, unmistakable words spoken in her own voice.

> "Oh, Nile, fuck me so hard… please!"

Ava's breath hitched.

> "I will. I enjoy fucking you far more than Sophia." Nile's deep, pleasure-filled groan followed.

> "Oh yes, Nile..."

> "Oh, Ava, you're so tight… I'm so close..."

The recording could go on and on, leaving no room for denial, but Ava had heard enough.

With a wild, panicked expression, she lunged forward and snatched Elara's phone, her fingers moving frantically as she deleted the recording. Her breaths came out ragged, her hands shaking from the sheer terror of what this could mean.

Her hands shook, but when she looked up, her lips curled into a triumphant sneer. "There. Now your little stunt is useless."

But Elara?

She just smirked.

"Oh, Ava," Elara drawled, leaning in slightly. "Do you really think I'd be stupid enough to keep the only copy on my phone?" She tilted her head, her tone dripping with amusement. "Check around. My best friends have copies. I even took extra precautions."

She tapped her temple. "With a few clicks, I can retrieve it back to my phone whenever I want." Then, her smirk widened. "So really, this was a complete waste of time."

Ava was seething.

"You BITCH!" She screamed, her face twisting in rage. "How dare you?! You're a disgusting little snake! How shameful do you have to be to record someone's intimate moments?! You're a goddamn demon!"

Elara chuckled. "And you're more shameful for sleeping with your best friend's boyfriend." She shrugged, her expression unbothered. "Besides, I like that name. A demon?" She let the word roll off her tongue, enjoying the way Ava's fury deepened. It suits me, don't you think?"

Ava's hands clenched into fists, but she wasn't done yet.

With pure hatred burning in her eyes, she hurled the most venomous insults she could think of.

"You're nothing, Elara. Nothing but a worthless, pathetic mistake. No wonder your family hates you. No one will ever love you. You're just a walking disgrace, an embarrassment to everyone around you. You think you're strong, but you're just a pathetic little girl pretending to be something she's not. I hope you die alone, because that's exactly what you deserve."

Each word felt like a dagger to Elara's heart.

She felt her heart clench with every venomous word Ava hurled at her, each insult cutting deeper than the last. But instead of lashing out in anger or letting Ava see even a flicker of pain, she steeled herself and made a bold move—one she knew would wound Ava far more than any insult ever could.

From the corner of her eye, she spotted him, Nile, Sophia's boyfriend, the very man Ava had betrayed her best friend with. He wasn't just a fling to Ava; he was her long-time, unspoken crush, the one she had desperately wanted for herself long before she ever got the chance to be with him in secret. And now, Elara would provoke Ava with the one thing Ava had craved for years.

With her chest tightening, she took the bait, deciding to go all in.

Fuck her parents thoughts and reputation.

She stepped forward without hesitation, reaching for Nile before he could react. In one swift motion, she pulled him close, tilting her head up, and without a single ounce of hesitation, she pressed her lips against his.
