“Fine,” I said, still a little flustered from the earlier question.

My friends knew me so well. And with the look Alice was giving me, she knew something was playing on my mind. She was my bestie after all. Humans might not have mind-reading abilities but the connection I had with my buddies was the next best thing.

“I want to know how Alice fell in love with the guy who abducted us!” Maddy said.

Vicky flopped onto the sofa and perched her chin on her hands.

“Ooh, yeah,” she said. “Please tell!”

“What was it?” Sirena said. “Like, Stockholm Syndrome or something?”

“No!” Alice said. “It wasn’t anything like that!”

“That’s what it sounds like,” Vicky said, raising her empty wine glass for a refill.

“I don’t think it’s much of a secret among us ladies that Titan lovers are the greatest thing since sliced bread,” Bianca said. “Now, I’ve had my fair share of human cock—”

“More than your fair share,” Vicky said.

Bianca nodded in agreement.

“More than my fair share,” she said. “And I can tell you that there is nothing like getting some Titan sausage to satisfy that itch we all get from time to time. Am I right?”

We all nodded.

“But it’s best not to let them know how great they are,” Alice said. “We don’t want them getting big heads.”

“Mine’s already got a big head,” Sirena said with a wink.

“How can you guys drink the wine like it’s nothing?” Alice said. “I almost fell unconscious when I first had it!”

“Me too,” Vicky said.

“That’s because you’ve always been weak when it comes to alcohol,” Sirena said.

“Am not!” Alice said.

“It’s true, isn’t it, girls?” Sirena said. “You’ve never been able to keep up with the rest of us.”

Alice thrust her chin out.

“And how did you get so good at drinking it?” she said.

“The same way you get good at anything,” Vicky said. “Practice. Lots and lots of practice.”

“Someone’s not practicing,” I said, nodding at Bianca. “What’s the matter? It’s not to your liking?”

“No,” she said. “It tastes fine. It’s just…”

“She’s probably pregnant,” Sirena said flippantly.

Bianca turned silent. When the rest of us shared a glance, we realized the truth.

“No way!” I said.

“You are pregnant!” Vicky said. “Man, I’m so hot when I drink this wine. I know exactly what’s going on with everybody!”

We leaped onto the sofa and crowded around Bianca.
