𝐀𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐈𝐃 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊𝐄𝐃 𝐀𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃 the cafe as she waited for the person she needed the most right now to arrive. She wasn't patient when it comes to matters related to her heart. She knew that she had to be fast in order to get Noah or else she feared that he would be trapped in Celeste's vicious spell.
Celeste is heartless and she doesn't deserve Noah. Astrid was sure that she would crush Noah's heart if he even dares to hand it to her. She can't let that happen - she is the only thief who can ever steal his heart and love.
Noah was hers and there was no question concerning that.
She checked her phone for the hundredth time in the past half an hour - her partner in crime was fifteen minutes late. She drank her latte, trying to calm herself down. But her anxiety was at its peak and her brain was overthinking.
Finally, she heard the bell of the cafe jingle, marking the presence of a guest and she lifted her eyes to meet the emerald green ones she wished to see. A grin formed on her face, her hopes resurfacing. Everything was now going to be just fine.
The person walked towards her with a smirk on her face. The woman was an old acquaintance of Astrid, she wouldn't call themselves best of friends but they bonded on one common ground - their hatred for Celeste.
"Astrid." the woman said.
Astrid got up and enveloped the woman in a tight hug even though she knew she didn't like it.
"It's so nice to have you here, Fiona. Thanks for supporting," she says.
Astrid releases Fiona from her hug and the women settle down to discuss the serious matter. They knew what they wanted and now, they needed a way to get what they want.
"I was glad I got your call. It was time that someone realized that Celeste Nyx Knight needs to be put in her rightful place." Fiona says.
"Yes. I couldn't think of anyone besides you to help me achieve that." Astrid replies.
Fiona nods.
Celeste didn't have many friends in her life but there were a few she kept close enough to her to label them as her friends. Fiona was one of them. Fiona met Celeste when they were sixteen and that too during a photoshoot for Victoria's Secret. Celeste was a star back then as well and Fiona was left mesmerized by her grace and beauty.
They bonded over the shoot and eventually, became great friends. Fiona lived a lavish life with Celeste, going to expensive clubs, VIP parties, and getting amazing contracts for modeling. They were amazing together and Fiona believed that she knew Celeste pretty well.
Then, Fiona met Matt. The second she saw him, she knew that she would never be the same again. Matt was a photographer and that too a very famous woman. He was also an acquaintance of Celeste and that's how they met and bonded. It started with some dates, escalated to hot make-out sessions, and then, they were so obsessed with each other that they wouldn't hesitate to fuck the senses out of each other in bathroom stalls of clubs.
Fiona was happy and in love. The green-eyed blonde beauty with the perfectly carved body was living her life to the fullest. She had a great career, an amazing friend, and a gorgeous boyfriend.
Everything was going fine until one night.
That dreadful night when she lost everything.
It was her birthday, sadly, and she had thrown a huge party in her penthouse - inviting the elites in the town. She had looked heavenly in her black dress which she only wore for Matt. Recently, he had been acting weird around her and when she confronted Celeste about it, she told her that maybe Matt was hiding something and planning a big surprise for her birthday. Celeste had assured her that Matt would never leave her.
The party was going all well until she looked around to find both Matt and Celeste were missing. She searched her entire penthouse for her two most loved persons and found them on the balcony. By the looks of it, they looked to be having a serious discussion so Fiona stayed back to listen.
"No, Matt. I can't do this to Fiona. Also, I don't even like you... you are like a brother to me." she heard Celeste say.
"But Celeste, I love you. I only dated Fiona to get close to you. I admit that I initially liked her but now, she has become a person I don't even remember. Every second I had spent with you two, I enjoyed just being around you, and eventually, I just started liking you. I don't want to be with her... I can't. I want you." Matt replied.
Fiona didn't hear what happened next because she was then, livid. She made her way through the crowd, pushing away the people in her way. Grabbing an entire bottle of whiskey, she went to her room and finished the entire bottle.
Why can't she always be happy?
What is in Celeste that every guy wants her? She isn't that beautiful even!
Why would Matt choose her? Fiona is everything he could ever want!
She grew angry with every drip of alcohol after which she couldn't control anymore. She barged out of her room and grabbed the mic from the DJ.
"Everyone! I have something very important to say!" she screams through the mic as she tries to stand straight. Her makeup was ruined and tears rolled down her eyes. Celeste and Matt looked at her with shocked faces.
"Fiona, get down.... you don't want to embarrass yourself," Celeste said.
Fiona laughed - of course, Celeste would say that. That bitch is one fat liar, after all.
"No! I will not listen to you. You see guys, this.... woman who you call the Queen, who you adore so much is a boyfriend stealing whore!" Fiona shouts.
Everyone gasps around her and Fiona smirked as she saw a frown appear on Celeste's face.
"I had a good life and an amazing boyfriend. Where is he?", she said searching for Matt in the crowd, " there! Matt! Gosh, I love you so much. You were such an amazing fuck. Ladies, let me tell you he has one big dick.... so where was I? Yeah!" she says.
"Fiona! Get down, now! We will talk about this when you are sober." Celeste said and even Matt pleaded to her. But there was no stopping her.
"This slut was busy seducing my man behind my back! She is no Queen - she is a fucking whore! She deserves nothing but shit! I wish you hell, Celeste Nyx Knight. You are nothing without your parents! Nothing! You will die and nobody will care. You fucking slut! You are no friend of mine!" Fiona declared after which she fainted.
That was the last time she and Celeste talked to each other.
The next day she knows, she is in front of every newspaper and the video of her stupidness is all over the net. Her social media was filled with hate. All of her contracts were canceled and she had no work.
Her career went downside after that.
It didn't take her long to get to the wrong path - she became a drug addict, had numerous one night stands, and lost every ounce of dignity she had for herself.
She was so lost in those chemicals and fucking random men that she didn't realize that her period was missing and she was pregnant. One overdose killed her child and almost took her life too.
That's when she decided that she needed to start over.
And the first thing she was going to do was ruin Celeste.
She took everything from her and now, it's Fiona's turn.
Fiona looked at Astrid with determination in her eyes.
"We are going to do this and no matter what, this is the war we are going to win. I am going to avenge my unborn child and everything that went wrong in my life because of her. The Queen is going to lose her crown, soon." Fiona says.
