Chapter 13

The emerald dress clung to Kylie’s curves, the slit up her thigh revealing a flash of lace Harrington had selected himself. Maya’s jaw actually dropped when she turned from the mirror, her own black cocktail dress suddenly feeling prudish in comparison. “Holy shit, ” Maya breathed, reaching out to adjust a stray curl near Kylie’s temple. “You look like... like a model who murders rich husbands.” The compliment landed with a thud as Kylie’s laugh caught in her throat.

Maya twirled, her own dress flaring. “Okay, but look.” She held up her phone, the front camera capturing them side-by-side, Kylie’s green silk against Maya’s black satin, their makeup smoky and mature under the bathroom’s light. Kylie’s reflection stared back, a stranger with glossed lips and smokey eyes. The girl in the mirror looked like she belonged on someone’s arm. The girl in her skin knew what Liam’s cock would taste like before the night was over.

Outside, a car honked. Liam’s text lit up Kylie’s screen: Here!! Kylie’s stomach twisted. The dress’s zipper pressed against her spine like a brand. Maya squealed, grabbing their clutch. “Ready to wreck Liam Pierce?” The question bubbled with innocence. Kylie adjusted her garter strap, Harrington’s ‘surprise’ nestled against her thigh, and wondered if Maya would still be grinning if she was in her place. “Yeah, ” she murmured. “Wreck him.”

The hallway stretched long, every step amplifying the dread pooling in her gut. Liam waited by the door, his suit a crisp navy that made his youth pop. His gaze raked over her, once, twice, before settling somewhere near her collarbone, as if direct eye contact might scorch him. “You, uh...” He cleared his throat. “Green’s definitely your color.” His Adam’s apple bobbed. Maya elbowed him. “Duh. She’s devastating.”

Liam’s car smelled like Febreze and teen boy nerves. Kylie counted streetlights through the window, each one a ticking clock. At a red light, his fingers brushed hers, warm, tentative. She recoiled before catching herself. His hurt frown mirrored in the glass. “Sorry, ” she whispered. “Static shock.” Liam’s thumb traced her knuckle. “It’s okay.” His kindness was the cruelest part.

The gymnasium loomed ahead, pulsing with music and laughter. Kylie’s garter dug into her thigh. Somewhere inside, Harrington was waiting.

The parking lot lights flickered under twinkle lights strung haphazardly from lampposts. Maya bolted from the car before Liam even shifted into park, her heels clicking against the asphalt as she sprinted toward a group of boys loitering near the entrance. "Text me!" she called over her shoulder, already absorbed into the crowd, heading toward her beau.

Liam offered his arm, old-fashioned, sweet, and Kylie took it. Inside, the strobe lights sliced through the darkness, illuminating snippets of gyrating bodies, sloshing punch cups, the occasional flash of a teacher chaperone looking bored near the fire exit.

Every step sent whispers rippling through the crowd. Heads turned, boys staring openly, girls with narrowed eyes appraising the emerald dress that clung to Kylie like a body suit. Her cheeks burned under the attention and bit of embarrassment. She knew exactly what they’d see if the lights brightened: the slight tremor in her hands, the way she walked too perfectly.

Near the bleachers, Harrington leaned against the basketball hoop stanchion, a red plastic cup dangling from his fingers. Jameson and Ben flanked him like bookends, their gazes tracking her progress across the room. Faculty chaperones, naturally. But they didn’t approach. Not yet. Harrington merely raised his cup in a mock toast, his toothy smile visible even from across the gym.

Liam squeezed her hand. “Want to dance?” His voice was too loud, too eager. Kylie nodded, letting him lead her toward the swaying mass of bodies. The bass thumped through the floorboards, syncing with her racing pulse. Liam’s hands settled on her waist, careful, respectful, but all she could feel was the phantom press of Miller’s thighs against her temples, the chemical burn of Harrington’s cum down her throat.

Someone wolf-whistled. Liam’s grip tightened protectively, but Kylie didn’t need to look to know it was Ben. The song shifted, something slow, something romantic, and Liam pulled her closer. His breath tickled her ear. “You’re shaking.”

Kylie pressed her forehead against his collarbone, inhaling the scent of his drugstore cologne. “Just cold, ” she lied. His arms wrapped around her, sheltering. For one fleeting moment, she let herself imagine this was all there was: the music, the warmth, the boy who thought she was something precious.

Then she lifted her gaze over Liam’s shoulder, and locked eyes with Harrington. His tongue swiped across his bottom lip, slow and deliberate, as he smirked.

Liam’s thumbs traced idle circles on the small of Kylie’s back, oblivious to the way her spine stiffened. The song’s lyrics, something about love and lightning, faded into static as Harrington tilted his head, his stare dropping pointedly to Liam’s hands on her waist. His grin widened when she flinched.

A slow spin brought her face-to-face with Maya twirling nearby, her laughter bright as confetti. Kylie mirrored her friend’s smile; teeth gritted so hard her jaw ached. Liam chin nuzzled her temple, his sigh warm against her skin. “This is perfect, ” he murmured. Kylie dug her nails into his shoulder blades, counting the seconds until the song ended.

The gym lights flickered, once, twice, before the music cut off with a screech of feedback. The crowd groaned as Principal Alvarez’s voice crackled over the speakers: “Attention, Cougars! Karaoke starts in two minutes.” Maya whooped, dragging her toward the stage. “We’re first!” Liam squeezed her waist. “You’ll kill it.” Across the room, Harrington lounged against the bleachers, swirling his drink with a smirk that turned her bowels to ice.

The microphone squealed. The DJ, some senior with a Snapback and acne, held up a slip of paper. “First up: Kylie Morgan, singing...” He squinted. “Damn. Side to Side?” The crowd erupted. Maya shrieked, “YAS, KYLIE!” Liam’s eyebrows shot up. Kylie’s pulse hammered in her throat as the opening bars throbbed through the gym, bass vibrating the stage beneath her feet. The lyrics flashed onscreen: I’ve been here all night.

She clutched the mic, voice cracking on the first line. Harrington’s fingers drummed against his thigh in rhythm. Her gaze darted to Liam, his encouraging nod oblivious to the way Jameson smirked behind him, miming a circular motion with his finger. The music swelled. Kylie inhaled sharply, then dropped her shoulders, rolling her hips just enough to make the emerald dress ripple under the lights.

The second verse rolled smoother, her voice gaining strength as she channeled years of gymnastics poise into every exaggerated pose, leg extended, arms arched, fingers trailing down her thigh in perfect sync with the lyrics. The crowd whooped. Harrington leaned forward, licking his lips. Each movement was calculated, the way she flipped her hair, the slow drag of her tongue across her bottom lip when she sang, but Liam’s awestruck expression twisted something inside her.

Spotlights burned and sweat trickled between her breasts. The final chorus exploded, Kylie spinning, dress flaring, her voice soaring as she hit a note with a precision that sent Maya screeching into the mic stand. Applause erupted. Harrington clapped slowly, his eyes gleaming with approval. Liam rushed to the stage, lifting her off her feet. “You were—wow, ” he stammered. Kylie buried her face in his neck, trembling with adrenaline and shame, already thinking of the lie she’d whisper when he asked why she’d picked that song later even though she hadn’t.

Maya shoved her aside, snatching the mic with a smile. “Bow down, peasants.” The opening chords of Shake It Off by Taylor Swift—not exactly scandalous—rolled out. Maya strutted across the stage, brushing against the DJ’s table, her hips loose and unselfconscious. No orchestrated seduction, just pure joy. Kylie watched from the shadows, Harrington’s gaze boring into her back. Maya pointed at random guys, licking her palm and smoothing her hair, playacting at sexy, not realizing how easily it could curdle into something darker.

Liam’s fingers tangled with Kylie’s, his grip too tight, his breathing uneven. “You’re shaking again, ” he murmured. Maya hit the chorus, off-key but radiant, spinning into a backbend that sent her skirt riding up. The crowd cheered. Kylie forced her shoulders to relax, leaning into Liam’s side. His heartbeat thudded against her temple. “You okay?” he asked. His thumb traced her wrist, innocent, unknowing. She nodded.

Across the gym, Harrington peeled himself off the bleachers, adjusting his tie, flicking a finger toward Kylie in gesture. Ben and Jameson flanked him, their laughter swallowed by the music. Maya’s song ended in a squeal, the mic dropping with a thud. The applause felt distant, like waves crashing somewhere far away. Kylie’s fingers tightened around Liam’s. He kissed her knuckles, oblivious to the way her breath faltered. Maya bounded toward them, sweaty and victorious, her bliss untouched by situation Kylie found herself in.

Kylie’s excuse, ladies’ room, tasted sour on her tongue. Liam smiled, nodding toward the hallway. “Hurry back.” His fingers lingered on her waist, reluctant. Maya’s laughter chased her into the darkened corridor, swallowed by the bass thumping through the walls. Kylie counted her steps around the corner. Harrington’s shadow stretched long under the flickering EXIT sign. Ben leaned against the janitor’s closet, arms crossed. Jameson’s grin flashed white in the dimness. “Quite the performance, Princess, a natural, " Harrington murmured, stepping forward. “All those boys, ” his thumb swiped her lower lip, smearing gloss, “forgetting their dates. Hungry.”

Jameson crowded her against the lockers, his breath hot on her cheek. “Should be proud, ” he whispered. His knee nudged her thighs apart, pinning her in place. Behind them, Ben chuckled, scrolling through his phone, likely reviewing the latest recording. Harrington’s fingers tangled in her hair, wrenching her head back. “Told you green was your color, ” he murmured, dragging his tongue along her throat. The scent of his cologne, musky, expensive, clung to her nose, mingling with Liam’s drugstore sweetness still lingering on her hair. The music swelled as Harrington’s teeth scraped her collarbone.

The bathroom wall pressed icy against Kylie’s bare shoulders as Harrington shoved her into the handicapped stall. Someone had scratched SLUT into the metal partition, the letters jagged, uneven, like a foretelling. Jameson’s hands slid beneath her dress, hiking the fabric up her thighs. His fingers traced the edge of her lace, damp already, whether from Harrington’s breath on her neck or the adrenaline of her performance, she couldn’t tell. “Fuck, ” he groaned, pressing two fingers against her clit through the fabric. “Like a goddamn furnace.” Ben crowded behind her. Harrington’s thumb circled her nipple through the silk, pinching just shy of pain. “Liam made you this wet?” he taunted, twisting the bud between his fingers.

Ben’s fingers slipped beneath between her thighs, tracing her wet lips folds before retreating, teasing, never quite pressing fully. Kylie’s hips jerked involuntarily, chasing the contact. Jameson laughed against her ear, his grip tightening on her thigh. “What a whore, ” he muttered. Harrington’s free hand cupped her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze in the smudged mirror above the sink. “Look at you, ” he murmured. His thumb brushed her lower lip, smearing gloss. “All dressed up for him...” His fingers dipped lower, rubbing slow circles just below her chin. Outside, someone laughed.

Harrington stepped back, adjusting his tie as if he hadn’t just had his hand up her dress. “Almost forgot, ” he said smoothly, turning Kylie around and pushing her forward, plucking a small tube of lube from his pocket. He smeared it generously over his finger rubbed it over Kylie’s asshole before sliding it up her ass a few times. "In case you need it, " he chuckled. Ben pocketed his phone with a wink. Kylie flushed red. “Don’t keep Liam waiting, ” Harrington purred, stepping aside to let her pass. Kylie’s legs shook as she straightened her dress, the fabric clinging to damp skin. The hallway pulsed with bass. Somewhere, Liam was waiting. Somewhere, Maya was laughing. And Kylie, thighs and ass cheeks slippery, walked back into the light.

Liam’s face lit up when he spotted her. He caught her wrist, pulling her into the throng of dancers just as a slow song swelled through the speakers. His hands settled tentatively on her waist, higher than Harrington’s had been, more hesitant. Kylie arched into him, pressing their bodies flush. His breath hitched. She guided his palms lower, until they cupped the curve of her ass. His fingers flexed, unsure. “Kylie—” he started, but she silenced him with a roll of her hips, grinding against the hardness straining his slacks. The music drowned out his groan.

Her pulse hammered, part shame, part something darker. Liam’s hands were warm, his touch gentle, but all she could think about was Harrington’s smirk, the way he’d twisted her nipple just to watch her squirm. Liam’s thumbs traced the lace edge of her dress and she shuddered from how easily her body responded, how wet she was despite the revulsion clawing up her throat. Liam mistook it for pleasure. His mouth found her ear. “You’re killing me, ” he whispered. His hips jerked forward, his erection pressing against her stomach. Kylie closed her eyes. The song ended. The crowd cheered. And Harrington watched from the shadows, licking his lips.

Maya materialized beside them, her grin growing when she saw Liam’s hands still gripping Kylie’s ass. “Damn, ” she stage-whispered, fanning herself. “Save some for later.” Liam flushed scarlet, yanking his hands away like he’d been burned. Kylie forced a laugh, smoothing her dress. Her thighs were slick. Her pulse raced.

“Jealous?” Kylie shot back, tossing her hair, like this was just another night, just another flirtation. Maya snorted, nudging her toward Liam. “Obviously. Someone’s stealing my bestie.” She winked, already scanning the crowd for her beau. Kylie’s fingers dug into Liam’s sleeve. “Be right back, ” she murmured, before dragging him into the shadowed hallway. His palm sweated against hers, his confusion palpable in the way he stumbled after her, timid, bewildered.

Room 214 smelled of chalk dust. Kylie locked the door behind them, Liam’s breath loud in the dark. “Kylie—” She didn’t let him finish. Her lips crashed into his, desperate and bruising. Liam gasped. His hands hovered uncertainly before settling on her hips, trembling. She guided them higher, one gripping her waist, the other fumbling behind her neck, until his fingers tangled in her hair, tugging just enough to make her moan. Not Harrington’s calculated cruelty. Just Liam, clumsy, earnest. The contrast made her stomach flutter.

Beyond the door, footsteps echoed. Laughter. Liam pulled back, panting. “Are you— Are we—” Kylie silenced him with a finger to his lips. Harrington’s smirk haunted her. She pressed closer, grinding against Liam’s thigh. His groan was muffled against her shoulder. Somewhere, Maya was laughing. Somewhere, Harrington was waiting. And Kylie, trapped between them, let her hands slip lower.

Her fingers trembled as she unbuckled his belt, pretending to be slow and hesitant. Liam’s breath hitched. “You don’t have to—” She silenced him with a clumsy kiss, fumbling with his zipper like it was her first time. His cock sprang free against her palm, hot, eager. Smaller than Harrington’s, softer than Ben’s. She swallowed the thought before it could show on her face.

Kylie dropped to her knees. She hesitated, just long enough to seem nervous, before swirling her tongue around his tip. Liam gasped, his fingers tangling in her hair. She worked him slowly, her hand moving in clumsy strokes, her lips never quite sealing around him, like she didn’t know what she was doing. Like she wasn’t the girl who could take a cock in her throat to the hilt.

His thighs trembled. She tasted salt. Somewhere down the hall, a locker slammed. Liam’s hips jerked forward, too eager, too quick. Kylie let him hit the back of her throat and gagged dramatically, pulling back with tears in her eyes. “Sorry, ” she whispered, wiping her mouth, a perfect performance of innocence. Liam’s face burned scarlet. “Oh god, I’m so—” She silenced him with swirl of her tongue, his pre-come taste still on her tongue. The lie was complete.

Kylie moved her lips back to Liam's cock, and without warning he came in her mouth. Shit, shit, shit, she thought as the bitterness pooled under her tongue, realizing she couldn’t swallow like she naturally would or else Liam would know she was a slut. Harrington would’ve laughed, would’ve twisted her nipple and called her a filthy liar right there in front of Liam. Kylie made a face and dramatically spat Liam's come onto the tile next to them. "Blech, " she managed as a tendril of liquid hung from her chin.

Liam crumpled, actually crumpled, hands clawing at his hair. “Oh my God, I’m so sorry, ” he choked out, voice cracking like a middle schooler’s. His softening cock twitched pathetically against his thigh, still glistening with her saliva. “I didn’t—I’ve never—” His Adam’s apple bobbed. Kylie pressed her palm against him again, feeling him shrink under her touch as his whole body shuddered.

She forced a giggle, wiping her mouth with the back of her hand. “It’s okay, ” she lied, breathless. Her fingers curled around him, stroking slow, too slow to do anything but prolong his humiliation. Liam whimpered, his hips jerking away. “Stop, please, I—” His voice broke. Kylie leaned in, pressing a chaste kiss to his trembling mouth. “You didn’t do anything wrong, ” she murmured, “It’s fine.” His breath stuttered.

Behind them, the doorknob rattled. Maya’s voice cuts through the wood: “Yo, perverts, they’re announcing Sadie Hawkins queen!” Liam flinched like he’d been shot. Kylie tucked him back into his pants with deliberate slowness and his face crumpled further. The door shook again. “Coming, ” Kylie called, her voice too bright, too steady. Liam’s fingers clutched at her wrist, not like Harrington’s iron grip, just desperate, trembling. She pulled him toward the door. “It’s okay, ” she repeats, smoothing his wrinkled collar.

The gym erupted when Principal Alvarez crowned her and Maya screamed the loudest, jumping so high her platform sandals nearly skid out from under her. The plastic tiara dug into Kylie’s scalp as she’s swept onto a makeshift throne, a repurposed wrestling podium. She beamed, waving like Miss America, ignoring the way her thighs stuck together under the dress. Harrington clapped from the bleachers, slow and mocking. Jameson whistled, two fingers in his mouth, the sound sharp enough to make her flinch. Liam lingered at the edge of the crowd, looking like he might vomit.

Principal Alvarez handed her a scepter, some dollar-store glitter stick, and for one stupid, giddy moment, Kylie forgot about it all. The spotlight burned her cheeks pink. Maya appeared next to her, crowing, “Bitch, you won!” Kylie threw her head back and laughed, the sound bouncing off the rafters. Then Harrington met her gaze over Maya’s shoulder, crooking his finger. The tiara tilts. Her smile didn’t.

The music swelled. Confetti cannons exploded. Kylie’s throne lurched as she is hoisted around by a couple football jocks, her grip white-knuckled on the scepter as they paraded her around the gym. Maya whooped, tossing glitter as Liam shrunk into the crowd. Harrington watched from the shadows, swirling his drink. The tiara’s rhinestones catch the light, scattering emerald reflections across the floor like broken glass. And Kylie, queen for the night, waved until her arm ached.

— --

Harrington’s office smelled like stale coffee and the lemon-scented disinfectant the janitors used, sharp enough to make Kylie’s eyes water as she stood at attention, her tiara still lopsided from the coronation. He lounged behind his desk, fingers steepled, watching her squirm. “So, ” he drawled, tapping a pen against his knee. “Liam.” The word landed like a slap. “Bet the little virgin came in your ass faster than a middle schooler jacking off to his first bra ad. It’ll be fun to watch the video.” Kylie’s stomach twisted. She focused on the cracked linoleum beneath her heels, the way her toes curled inside the tight fit. “He—we didn’t—”

“Spit it out, princess.” Harrington’s chair creaked as he leaned forward, his tie brushing the desk. “Or do I need to check the recording?” Kylie’s throat tightened. The memory of Liam’s choked apologies. She swallowed, forcing the words out: “He came in my mouth. Before we could... do anything else.” The admission hung between them, pathetic. Harrington’s laugh was a low, mean thing. “Jesus. And here I thought you were looking forward to fucking him!”

He stood abruptly, circling her like a shark. His fingers trailed down her arm. “Disappointing, ” he murmured. Kylie flinched as he gripped her chin, forcing her to meet his gaze. “But we’ll fix that.” His thumb pressed against her lips, smearing leftover gloss. “Won’t we?” Behind them, the clock ticked. Somewhere, Maya was probably still celebrating, oblivious to the way Kylie’s knees trembled.

Harrington’s other hand slid beneath her dress, fingers skating over her pussy. “Guess I’ll have to teach you how to keep a man hard, ” he mused, his breath hot against her ear. Kylie’s nails bit into her palms. The office window reflected back at her, Harrington’s shadow swallowing her whole. Outside, the parking lot lights flickered. Somewhere, Liam was probably sulking, trying to forget. And Kylie, tongue still tasting Liam’s shame, nodded.

Harrington’s phone buzzed before she could blink. He withdrew his hand, tapping out a message with deliberate slowness and hit send. Kylie didn’t dare breathe. “Well, ” he murmured, "might have to just send a video to Liam, show him what he's missing." He turned the screen toward her, smirking. His thumb hovered over the gallery icon—Liam’s contact already pulled up. “You want me to hit send on these?” The gallery thumbnail was small, blurry. But Kylie didn’t need to see it clearly to know what it showed—her bent over a table last week, her mouth stretched around his cock, the room’s harsh light catching every tear.

“No, ” she blurted, too loud. Harrington’s grin widened. He pocketed the phone, patting her cheek like she was a dog that had finally learned a trick. “Good.” His fingers tangled in her hair, pulling her down, and yanking her head back. “Now let’s see if you can remember how to swallow, ” unzipping his pants. The first thrust hit the back of her throat. Kylie gagged, tears welling, not from the stretch, but from how easily her jaw went slack. Harrington groaned above her, his grip tightening. “There she is, ” he crooned. The clock ticked. And Queen Kylie choked silently.

Harrington pulled her hair harder, fucking her throat in steady, brutal strokes. “Mmm. Liam should’ve held you down like this, ” he mused, his free hand cupping her cheek, mock-tender. Kylie’s nose pressed against his belt buckle. The tiara remained on her head crowning her a queen slut.

Her legs trembled. Spit dripped down her chin. Harrington sighed, the sound almost disappointed, before suddenly wrenching her upright by her arms. “Turn around, ” he ordered, spinning her toward the desk. Kylie’s palms hit the wood a split-second before Harrington’s knee kicked her legs apart. The cold metal of his belt buckle grazed her bare ass as he shoved her dress up. No warning. Just the brutal stretch as he buried himself to the hilt in one thrust deep in her ass. "Good thing we lubed you up beforehand. We were going to be using your ass in any case, now we’ll just have to do it harder." Kylie’s scream muffled against her own arm. Harrington chuckled, gripping her hips. “There’s my girl, ” he purred, slapping her ass sharply. The sting bloomed bright.

He set a punishing pace, each snap of his hips driving her into the desk. Papers scattered. A stapler toppled. Kylie’s elbows buckled, her cheek pressed against a student’s half-graded quiz. Harrington’s fingers dug into her waist, his breath ragged. “Fuck, ” he grunted, dragging her back onto him. “Should’ve let Liam watch this.” The thought sent a fresh wave of shame through her. Outside, distant cheers echoed from the gym. Somewhere, Maya was still laughing. And Kylie, spread across Harrington’s desk, took it. Took it all.

The door creaked open with a gust of synthetic lemon scent. Kylie flinched so hard Harrington’s cock slipped out, her muscles clenching around nothing. Jameson’s laugh filled the room before she even saw him, his shoes clicking against the linoleum. Ben followed, phone already raised. “Relax, Princess, ” Harrington murmured, easing back into her with a wet squelch. “Just your tutors dropping by for a study session. Seems we need a remedial lesson.” Jameson whistled low, circling the desk. “Aw, she didn’t let Liam pop in her butt?” His knuckles brushed her cheek, sticky with spit and smeared makeup. “Tsk. Bad student.”

Ben’s camera shutter clicked. Harrington’s grip tightened, hauling her upright by the hair until her back hit his chest. “Pay attention, ” he ordered, nodding to Jameson. “Watch how it’s done.” Jameson grinned, popping the button on his slacks. The zipper’s rasp made Kylie’s stomach flip. Harrington’s breath ghosted over her ear, “Open, ” he said, pushing her forward. She obeyed, tongue darting out just as Jameson shoved forward. The salt-bitter taste flooded her mouth, thicker than Liam’s, rougher. Harrington’s chuckle vibrated against her spine. “There. See how she takes it?” Ben zoomed in, capturing the way her throat bulged. “Perfect, ” Harrington purred, burying himself in Kylie's ass once more. “Now swallow.”

Jameson’s thrusts choked her. Harrington’s hips pistoned roughly. And the tiara, gleaming under the office’s lights, remained perfectly balanced atop Kylie’s head. Her vision blurred. Tears mixed with spit slicked her chin. Yet her pussy throbbed, wetness soaking her thighs. Sickening heat coiled low in her belly. The realization made her whimper. Jameson pulled out with a wet pop, smacking her cheek with his cock. “Decent, ” he muttered. But Ben’s camera caught the way her lips twitched, chasing the emptiness. “She loves it, ” Harrington confirmed, pulling out and dragging her onto her knees by the hair. “Don’t you, princess?” Kylie’s nod was automatic. Jameson laughed. Ben adjusted the focus.

Harrington wrenched her onto all fours, her ass raised high. The tiara slipped, then held. Jameson’s cock pressed against her pussy first, teasing, making her jerk, before Harrington cleared his throat. “Wrong hole, ” he corrected, “She wants to keep her virtue after all.” Kylie shuddered as Jameson breached her ass instead, his groan loud in her ears. “Christ. Still like a fucking vice.” Harrington knelt before her, shoving his cock into her mouth. “Suck, ” he ordered. And she did. Ben circled them, filming the obscene stretch of her ass around Jameson’s girth. Kylie’s moan vibrated around Harrington’s shaft. The vibrations made him curse. “Bad Queen, ” he praised. Her hips rocked back, taking Jameson deeper. The movement was instinct. Uncontrollable. Harrington’s fingers tightened around her ears. “Perfect, ” he growled. “Exactly what you’re made for.”

The rhythm built, Jameson pounding her ass, Harrington fucking her face, Ben’s camera documenting every twitch, every tear. Her body burned. The tiara’s rhinestones scattered light across the floor. Maya was probably still dancing. But here, spitted between her teachers, Kylie came. Silent. Shaking. Unwanted. Jameson felt it first, his laugh guttural. “She's getting off on this.” Harrington pulled out just enough to smirk down at her. “What a whore, ” he murmured, then shoved back in, swallowing her sob. Ben zoomed in on her clenched fists, her trembling thighs. The footage would be perfect. The tiara, slightly crooked now, glittered triumphantly.

Jameson’s hips stuttered. He buried himself to the hilt with a curse, spilling deep inside her ass, hotter than the shame pooling in her gut. He pulled out with a wet sound, slapping his come onto her twitching hole. “Next, ” he panted, stepping back. Ben didn’t hesitate. He flipped Kylie onto her back, her legs draped over his shoulders, his cock already pressing against her tight hole. Her gasp was ragged. “Fuck me, ” she whispered, then louder, desperate. “Fuck me, fuck me, fuck me.” Harrington’s hand clamped over her mouth, his cock slapping down on her cheeks. “Quiet, ” he ordered. Ben grinned, sinking into her ass with a groan. The stretch felt good Kylie realized and her back arched, unwilling, unstoppable.

Ben fucked her slow at first, each drag deliberate, her ass clinging to him. Then faster. Harder. Kylie’s moans vibrated Harrington’s cock on her lips, her thighs trembling against Ben’s chest. The camera lay forgotten on the desk, still recording. Harrington’s fingers tangled in her hair, pulled her head up to watch. “See?” he murmured, nodding at Ben’s cock disappearing into her butt. “This is what you’re for.” Kylie’s pussy clenched, empty, aching, and her fingers soon found it. Her breath hiccupped. Harrington laughed. Ben’s pace turned brutal, his hips slapping against her ass. The tiara’s plastic prongs dug into her scalp. And Kylie, split open, used, wet, couldn’t stop the words bubbling up her throat.

“Fuck me harder, ” she begged around Harrington’s cock, muffled, broken. Ben obliged. Harrington’s grip tightened. The door stayed locked. The clock ticked. The spotlight from the gym, still glowing through the blinds, cast their shadows on the wall: a grotesque parody of a crown atop a girl who’d stopped fighting long ago.

Ben groaned as he pulled out, cum dripping from her abused hole onto the tile. Harrington forced her to lick it up before shoving his cock back down her throat. “Filthy, ” he murmured, stroking her hair like she was something precious. Kylie’s body trembled, not from disgust, but from the horrifying realization that she was wet for whatever came next. The tiara sat firm, as Harrington bent her over his desk again by her hips. “Again, ” he ordered, pulling one of her legs up on the desk, an easy position for a gymnast. She squeezed her eyes shut, but the image of Liam’s shattered expression burned behind her lids.

Her fingers found her clit without permission anyway, rubbing in frantic circles as Harrington pounded into her from behind. The slap of skin echoed off the cinderblock walls, mingling with Ben’s laughter and the distant pop of confetti cannons from the gym. Kylie’s breath froze, then shattered. Her orgasm ripped through her like a betrayal, wringing a sob from her throat as Harrington’s hips stuttered. “There she is, ” he cooed, yanking her head back by the hair to watch her face. “My perfect little whore, " his grip the only thing keeping her upright.

Somewhere beyond the door, Maya’s laughter floated down the hallway. The music swelled. The queen was supposed to be dancing. Kylie’s thighs trembled as Ben wiped his phone lens clean. “Smile, princess, ” he murmured, framing her dress mucked around her waist, her smeared makeup. The flash blinded her. Harrington’s chuckle was warm against her ear.

“Where do you want it, Princess?” His fingers tightened in her hair as he slowed his thrusts, mockingly gentle. “Tell me where.” The words slithered down her spine. Kylie’s tongue darted out to wet her lips, chapped from his cock, from gagging. “In my ass, ” she whispered breathily, so softly Harrington had to lean in, his grin widening.

He slammed back into her with a wet smack. The desk shuddered. A pencil rolled off the edge, clicking against the floor. Kylie’s fingers scrabbled at the wood, her knuckles white. Harrington’s pace turned erratic, his rhythm collapsing into rough, jerking snaps of his hips. “Gonna—fuck—” His groan was guttural as he buried himself to the hilt, pulsing deep inside her. Kylie felt it, the warm surge, the way her body instinctively clenched around him.

The tiara slipped and fellcracking against the linoleum. Harrington exhaled as he pulled out, watching his semen drip from her asshole. “Pick it up, ” he ordered, nodding to the broken tiara. Kylie’s knees hit the floor. The plastic shards glittered under the lights like tiny emeralds.

Jameson shoved his cock between her lips before she could blink, his grip bruising as he tilted her head back. “Clean it, ” he muttered, his other hand fisting in her hair. Kylie’s tongue lapped at the sticky mess, her throat working around his thickness. Ben chuckled, pressing his phone closer. “Look at that, ” he mused, zooming in on her flushed cheeks, “Right from her ass.” Kylie’s gag reflex kicked in at the taste, but her lips stayed parted, obedient. Jameson groaned, his hips stuttering. “Christ. She’s so good at this.” The praise, if you could call it that, made her stomach twist.

Harrington stepped forward with deliberate slowness. “My turn.” He guided her mouth onto him with a sigh, his fingers tracing the shell of her ear. “There we go.” The salt-bitter taste flooded her senses. Ben’s cock nudged her cheek next, his chuckle low. “Don’t forget me, Princess.” Kylie’s jaw ached as she took him too, her tongue darting between the two shafts. The office reeked of sex and lemon cleaner. Kylie wondered if anyone could hear the wet, rhythmic sounds from the hallway.

Harrington finally pulled away, tucking himself back into his slacks. “Fix your dress, ” he ordered, gesturing to the dress around her waist. Kylie reached for it, her fingers trembling, just as the gym’s music swelled again. The queen’s dance. She was late. Ben smirked, pocketing his phone. “Better hurry, ” he drawled, adjusting his tie. “Wouldn’t want Liam to think you stood him up.” Kylie took the paper towels from Harrington’s hand and wiped herself. The dress slithered over her hips, sticking to the sweat and shame. Harrington snagged the tiara from her fingers and straightened it with mock reverence then handed her a few breath mints. “Perfect, ” he murmured, spinning her toward the door. The knob turned and the The hallway lights seemed too bright and Queen Kylie stepped back into the spotlight.

The gym pulsed with neon and bass. Maya materialized from the crowd, her grin blinding. “There you are!” she squealed, grabbing Kylie’s wrist. “You’re missing your own damn song!” Maya dragged her toward the dance floor, oblivious to the way Kylie’s legs shook, the way her dress clung wrong. The music shifted, something slow, syrupy. “Where’s Liam?” Maya shouted over the noise, scanning the crowd. Kylie’s throat tightened. She craned her neck, past the twirling couples, past the punch table. Nothing. "I don’t know, " she said sadly.

Kylie’s pulse thudded in her ears. Maya spun her, laughing. “Dance with me then!” Her hips swayed, carefree, innocent. Kylie mirrored the movement mechanically. The music swelled and the crowd cheered. Kylie’s fingers dug into Maya’s shoulders. “Hey, ” Maya frowned, slowing. “You okay?” The concern, real, warm, made Kylie’s chest ache. She forced a nod. “Yeah... I'm great!” Maya rolled her eyes. “Psh. It’s Sadie Hawkins. Live a little!” The song ended as the lights flashed before a faster paced song started.

Maya squealed, dragging her into a group of gyrating girls. "About time!" she laughed, pressing a red cup into Kylie’s hand. The punch was syrupy-sweet and Kylie gulped it down, the sugar coating her tongue as the burn of cheap vodka from some parents cabinet felt almost cleansing.

For the next hour, Maya commandeered her, pulling her into selfie circles, shouting off-key lyrics into her ear, spinning her under the disco lights until Kylie’s calves ached and her laughter sounded almost real. No hands groped beneath her dress. No whispers slithered down her spine. Just Maya’s arm slung around her shoulders, warm and weightless. Kylie let herself lean into it, the tiara sitting straight atop her head.

Then the DJ dropped the beat, something bass-heavy, pulsing, and Maya whooped, dragging her toward the dance floor’s epicenter. Bodies pressed close, the air thick with sweat and fruity perfume. Kylie arched her back on instinct, letting the rhythm guide her hips gracefully, practiced. She caught a glimpse of Liam lingering near the bleachers, his gaze flickering toward her before darting away. Maya noticed too, nudging her with a grin. "Go get him!" she shouted over the music, pushing her forward. Kylie hesitated, her ass still throbbing faintly, but smoothed her dress with shaking hands.

Liam’s expression twisted when she approached, confusion, guilt, something raw beneath the flush of alcohol. Kylie reached for him before she could second-guess it, her fingers grazing his wrist. "Dance with me?" Her voice sounded foreign: soft, hopeful. Liam swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing. Then, haltingly, his palm settled against the small of her back. They swayed together, the space between them charged with everything unsaid. The music melted into something slower, melancholic. Kylie’s forehead brushed his collarbone, just for a moment, before someone's laughter sliced through the crowd from somewhere behind her.

Her spine stiffened. Liam’s grip faltered. Kylie forced herself to lean in closer, her lips grazing his ear, just as she thought she noticed Harrington’s shadow loomed at the edge of her vision. "Don’t stop, " she whispered, pressing her body flush against Liam’s. His pulse jumped beneath her fingertips, quick, erratic. But his arms tightened around her, warm against the chill crawling up her spine. The song ended. The lights flickered. And somewhere behind them, someone clapped, slow, mocking, before vanishing into the crowd.

She kissed him then, quickly, fleeting, her lips barely brushing his before she pulled away. Liam blinked, dazed, his mouth still parted as he liked his lips. Kylie didn’t let herself linger. She slipped from his grasp like water, her heels clicking against the gym floor as she wove through the thinning crowd. Maya materialized by the exit, her grin lazy with punch-induced bliss. "There’s my queen!" she slurred, slinging an arm around Kylie’s shoulders. The tiara wobbled. Kylie adjusted it absently, her gaze darting over Maya’s shoulder, past the streamers, past the bleachers, looking for them. And saw nothing.

Outside, the air smelled of asphalt and dew. Maya prattled on about some senior prank idea, her voice buoyant against the hum of cicadas. Kylie nodded along mechanically, her fingers tightening around the straps of her purse. The emerald dress clung to her thighs, sticky. A car door slammed somewhere in the parking lot. The sound made her flinch. Maya didn’t notice. "We should crash the diner, " she declared, tugging Kylie toward the street. "Celebrate properly. With ice cream!" Kylie forced a laugh.

The Uber bumped along, smelling of pine scented air freshener. Maya sprawled across the backseat, twirling a strand of Kylie's hair around her finger. "God, your man drama was, ” she pantomimed a chef’s kiss, she sighed, kicking off her heels. "Liam looked wrecked." Kylie traced the condensation on the window with her pinky, watching the neon diner sign blur and sharpen in the distance. She murmured something noncommittal. Maya rolled her eyes. "Relax. He’ll be crawling back by Monday, " she promised, nudging her knee. The driver adjusted the rearview mirror, just for a second. Kylie’s pulse stuttered. But his gaze slid right past her.

The diner’s neon lights buzzed faintly, casting watery reflections across the vinyl booths. Kylie slid into the cracked leather seat, her thighs pressing against Maya’s beneath the table. The chatter around them, laughing couples, tired waitresses, should’ve been comforting. But every pair of loafers squeaking past their booth sounded deliberate. Maya tossed a sugar packet at her. "Earth to Kylie, " she teased. "You did have fun, right?" Kylie reached for the saltshaker, just to have something to hold, and nodded. "Yeah. It was... perfect, " she said.

The milkshakes arrived in tall, frosted glasses. Maya plucked a fry from the basket between them, waving it like a scepter. "Eat up, your highness, " she laughed, tapping Kylie’s nose with it. Kylie forced a grin. Queen of getting fucked in the ass! she thought bitterly, watching her reflection warp in the frosted glass. Maya slurped her shake obnoxiously, kicking Kylie under the table. "Stop brooding, " she mumbled around the straw. "You won." Kylie’s fingers tightened around her own straw, plastic bending under her grip. "Yeah, " she whispered. "I won."

The fries were crisp, golden. Kylie chewed mechanically, the grease coating her throat. Maya leaned in conspiratorially, her breath warm and sweet. "Okay, spill, " she demanded, dunking a fry in Kylie’s shake. "Was Liam that bad?" Kylie’s stomach lurched as she reached for another fry, anything to keep her hands busy, and shrugged. "He was... fine, " she muttered. Maya rolled her eyes. "Sure. That’s why he looked like he was going to bolt halfway through the dance."

Kylie forced a laugh, light, airy, and nudged Maya’s knee under the table. "Enough about me, " she deflected, twisting the straw wrapper between her fingers. "You’ve been yapping about Sadie Hawkins for weeks. How’d your night go?" Maya’s eyes lit up, her cheeks flushing. "Oh my god, " she groaned, slumping back against the booth. "You missed everything." Kylie relaxed, just a fraction, as Maya launched into a rant about some junior who’d spilled punch on her dress, oblivious to the way Kylie’s fingers trembled against her glass.

The diner’s clock ticked. The milkshakes melted. Maya prattled on, hands waving, about stolen kisses and ruined shoes, her laughter bouncing off the chrome napkin dispenser. Kylie nodded at all the right moments, her lips curving into something almost genuine. Outside, headlights swept across the parking lot, brief, fleeting, and Kylie’s gaze flickered to the window. Maya didn’t notice. She was too busy recounting some dumb bet she’d made with a cheerleader, her voice rising with indignation.

Kylie exhaled, slow, quiet, and let the noise wash over her. The booth vinyl stuck to her thighs. The tiara dug into her scalp. And for the first time all night, no one was watching. "Did you do anything with Ezra?" Kylie asks innocently. Maya's eyes widened before she smacked her arm. "You never ask me about that!" Maya’s squeal echoed off the diner’s tiles, too loud, too bright, but Kylie leaned in anyway, resting her chin on her palm. "Tell me, " she teased, poking Maya’s milkshake-sticky wrist. "Or I’ll assume it was terrible."

Maya groaned, tossing her head back dramatically. "If you must know, " she huffed, but her lips twitched in the beginning of a smile. Kylie traced a finger through the condensation on her glass, waiting. "Ezra Hartman, " Maya whispered, giddy, conspiratorial, before dissolving into giggles. "He literally tripped over his own shoes while we danced." Kylie’s throat tightened at the normalcy of the story, just for a second, before she forced a laugh. “But that boy is handsy!” Maya chirped. "Oh my God, " Kylie giggled, nudging Maya’s knee.

Kylie listened, really listened, as Maya recounted every stuttered compliment, every awkward shuffle across the gym floor. The fry basket emptied between them. And for twenty-seven blissful minutes, Kylie wasn’t the girl with cum dripping down her thighs, just Maya’s best friend, rolling her eyes at bad pickup lines. Maya paused mid-sentence, straw hovering, and squinted. "Wait." Kylie froze, her pulse ratcheting, but Maya just grinned. "You’re distracted." She jabbed a fry at an empty chair. "Still thinking about him, huh?" Kylie’s fingers curled around her shake, but she managed a shrug. "Maybe, " she murmured, watching Maya’s reflection warp in the chrome napkin dispenser, letting her friend think that the him was Liam.

Maya’s Uber arrived first, a dented blue sedan rolling up beneath the streetlight. She hugged Kylie tight, her floral perfume cloying. “Text me, ” Maya slurred, stumbling into the backseat. “Or I’ll assume Liam kidnapped you.” The joke landed hollow. Kylie waved until the taillights vanished around the corner, then sagged against the diner’s brick wall, her lungs finally remembering how to breathe.

Her own Uber smelled faintly of cigarette smoke. Kylie pressed her forehead against the cool window glass, watching streetlights blur into streaks of gold. The driver didn’t speak.. Somewhere between Main Street and Elmwood, Kylie’s eyelids grew heavy, her body surrendering to exhaustion, her mind too tired to replay the night’s events. The car rolled to a stop and the porch light burned. Home.

Kylie slipped inside on bare feet, past the grandfather clock, past the family photos where her smile still reached her eyes. Her bedroom door clicked shut as she slinked out of the dress off and pulled on over-sized pajamas. The tiara tumbled onto the dresser, plastic screeching across the wood, as she collapsed onto her bed. Sheets tangled around her legs. Pillows muffled her sigh. Sleep came like a thief, swift, silent, stealing her away. And Kylie, the Queen for the night, broken by men, was already gone.

In her dreams, she twirled, lithe and effortless, across a balance beam stretched between two worlds. The air smelled of chalk and pine in one; sweat and semen in the other. To the left, her reflection wore a leotard, ponytail bouncing as she stuck a perfect landing. To the right, the same body arched, spread, shameless, over a pommel horse, gasping as hands gripped her hips. Both versions smiled. Both were her. The beam swayed as the worlds blurred.
