Sins Of Her Venom

- Kathrine Andrews:(Song of the Chapter: idfc by Blackbear)

I stood in front of Alex King's house, staring up at the massive mansion. It was the kind of place you only see in movies—huge, extravagant, and so outrageously luxurious it made you wonder why anyone would need that much space.

The house was lit up like a Christmas tree, with lights outlining every corner, and the booming bass of music spilled out into the night.

A party. Of course. But why?

Did these people ever need a reason to celebrate, or did they just throw parties because they could? I didn't know, and I didn't care anymore.

Leaning against my motorcycle, I adjusted my helmet and glanced down at my outfit.

I was dressed in a simple outfit—military boots, a black mini skirt that hit mid-thigh, a purple crop top that showed off my brand-new belly piercing, and a cropped leather jacket thrown on top to complete the look.

Everything was black except the crop top, which matched the deep, metallic purple of my motorcycle.

Mom and Dad had voiced their concerns when I left the house earlier. "Maybe you should wear proper riding gear," Dad had said, his face etched with worry. "It's dangerous."

"I'll drive slow," I had promised, and I kept my word.

I don't drive fast anyway, I would never do this to my parents and make them feel guilty for buying the machine that was sent to death.
