Many young ladies wish to climb their social ladder, to break into their circles, but few know this: the only friends the demon sisters have are each other."
Thales thought of Kasha and Qina, his brows furrowing involuntarily.
"And I am probably the only one who doesn't put up with their nonsense," Sherryl said, a glint in her eye, "In fact, I've told them to take a hike."
