“Girl, I am not worried about that nor am I about to make a big fuss.”

“Oh, so you want me to call Brianna and tell her you are going to go with another designer. Is that what you’re asking me to do?” Amber plays the blackmail card when it works to her advantage.

“If you want her to style you, just ask. You know she will.”

“Oh, I already did. But I have a vivid design for you in mind. It’ll only work if she does it.”

I toss my head back in an exaggerated fashion and roll my eyes. “Why are you trying to dress me like your favorite doll?”

“I’m not. Just hear me out. You revamped one of the hottest rock bands around.”

“And?”

“And you have to look amazing at the show. I mean eat-your-heart-out-Cocoa Bean hot. And I know just how to do it. There’s going to be live streaming on the internet. Not just from the label, but blogs, and radio stations with their streaming services. Not to mention, you can do a pay-per-view type event for fans and secure another stream of income. Turn all of Simon’s negative public publicity into a cash cow and look fucking hot while doing it.”

I twirl around in semi-circles in my chair thinking about what she’s proposing. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to brag and boast about my continued success on the cover of all the mags, both traditional and electronic, despite breaking up with Cornelius. The thought of how he could see I managed to go on without him warms my heart.

I spring to my feet with a great interest in her revenge-served-cold plot. “You know what, Amber, you’re abso-fucking-lutely right! I need to celebrate in this moment too. Especially knowing I can hurt two birds with one stone.”

“Two?”

“Yes, two. Cornelius, and Simon Ashton.”

“How has Simon wronged you?” She asks, taking a seat at my desk.

“Oh, he hasn’t. But he has this certain arrogance about him when it comes to listening to sound advice. He also thinks he can have any woman, even those who are highly unattainable to him. I just want to see his face when the carrot is dangling before the horse.”

“I was just talking about a few spicy photo ops that are sure to be in all the trade mags the next day or on ET or TMZ. You are talking plots and revenge shit.”

“I just want them both to realize who they are dealing with. One hurt me badly and the other one tries to challenge me. I just want to shake them up a bit. Make them realize that I’m not some pushover.”

“Did you have an extra shot of venom in your juice this morning? You have this crazed look in your eyes.”

“I may be a little over the top, but you were right when you said I need to show that they can’t rattle me. Tell me about this amazing design that you have in mind.”

“You’re going to need your caged thigh-high stiletto-heeled boots for this.”
