The stupid cupid herself, Millicent Match, gets her sentence in Karma Court.The person she wronged in life as former socialite Kiki Kent has been waiting a long time to serve this dish...cold.“Do you think she’ll remember you?” Felina Lavine whispered, peering over Natalie Rose’s left shoulder.Natalie slowly shook her head, her gaze fixed on the statuesque blonde in the holding area looking deliciously nervy. Maybe Natalie would wait just another minute or two before entering so that Kiki could fidget in the acid wash pink jumper a bit longer.“Why the ugly jumpsuit?” Felina asked, no longer craning for a better view.“I hoped she might hate it,” Natalie said, moving away from the window to lean against the wall. Not a real wall, she knew that. This was heaven, or the great beyond, nirvana, whatever a soul liked to call it. The wall was only here because Natalie put it there. Just as she’d put Kiki’s glaring pink jumpsuit on her and the designer ice white skirt suits on herself and Felina. Natalie tossed her pale blonde sheath of hair past her shoulder. “I hoped the cardboard-like feel of it would irritate her skin and make her want to tear it to small pieces and burn it.”“Wow. Bitter much?” Felina’s green eyes flashed with humor and a little fear. “She really must have hurt you in life.”Natalie ground her own teeth, hoping to edge the memories back. “I wouldn’t call it hurt. But, she deserves everything she’s going to get.” Views: 469
