“Well, you were probably drinking before you came over here—”
“I wasn’t.”
“Well, you’re emotionally distraught, so you probably—”
“I can drive, damn it, Niles.”
He reached over and snatched the keys away from the orc woman.
She let out a gasp of indignation.
“I’m getting you a car, and you can come back and get yours in the morning.”
“Give me back my keys.”
“Why? So you can go throw yourself at someone else and ask him to try to impregnate you?” said Niles.
What? Dahlia didn’t even know what to do with that.
“Because,” Niles was still talking, “you just said that you were going to do that.”
“No one else has two penises,” said the orc woman. “You’re like fucking two guys. Besides, that venom of yours? I remember it’s pretty great.”
Dahlia stiffened. Okay. So, he’d fucked her before. The question was when. Recently? Before Dahlia?
“I should have just pretended that we were already fucking, and then your girlfriend would have been mad, and I could have consoled you.”
“Oh, how do we know she’s not mad?” said Niles. “Where the fuck is she?” He raised his voice. “Dahlia?”
Dahlia didn’t respond.
“Come on, Hiljd,” said Niles. “Let’s go find a phone.”
“Look, I swear to you, I am not drunk. I barely drank any of that wine, and that is all I had to drink today. I was just trying to get the courage up to ask you to have sex with me, that’s all.”
Great. This was great. Dahlia had interrupted some kind of booty call. It looked like Niles might have been in the process of turning this woman down, but they had a history. Dahlia felt sick to her stomach.
Niles was supposed to be hers.
Dahlia listened while they went back up the steps.
She waited.
Then, silently, slowly, she climbed up behind them. Now, Niles and Hiljd were inside Niles’s apartment, behind closed doors. Dahlia couldn’t hear them, and she didn’t want to risk being seen if she looked in the windows.
She waited.
Eventually, a car pulled up to the house.
Niles and Hiljd came out.
Niles walked Hiljd downstairs to the car. Dahlia stood up top and peered down over the railing, watching him hug the woman and kiss her on the forehead and tell her to take care of herself.
The car pulled out.
Immediately, Niles pulled out his phone and dialed.
Her phone rang.
