WHEN LEANNE WALKED INTO THE small Soho bar, it was crowded—Friday evening crowd and all that—but Beth had secured a table, and there were even two gin and tonics ready on it. Good old Beth.

“Look at you, babe!” Beth’s mouth was open as she stared. Leanne had bought her first pair of skinny jeans and only an hour ago was fretting over whether to wear them. When she checked the mirror that age-old question about the size of her ass came to mind but eventually she decided that yes, her backside looked good in the jeans. And then she went through a similar agony with her new backless but elegant gold-colored top. It was an outfit she would not have dared contemplate a few weeks ago. “You look fucking amazing!”

Leanne grinned. She might never achieve the figure she once dreamed of, but so what? These days she preferred to consider herself curvy. “So do you.”

She had always envied her friend’s elfin face, which could pull off any hairstyle. Beth waved away her words. “I’m a flat-chested stick—deal with it.”

“You’re beautiful, Beth,” she said, “And don’t let anyone tell you any different.”

Her friend lifted her eyebrows. “Something’s changed about you, but I can’t put my finger on it.” She grinned. “Is it to do with your sexy stranger?” All Beth knew was that Leanne had met with the chauffeur again and they were now hooking up, regularly. Her best friend had no idea she was getting off with a shapeshifter—and loving it. Even when Rex lost control over his fangs and bladelike claws during sex, it turned her on instead of scaring her. “Dave breaking off the wedding is the best thing that could have happened to you,” Beth said, “I never did like him.”

Leanne nearly spluttered into her gin and tonic. “You never told me that.” Not so openly anyway, although she had caught on that Beth and Dave would never be friends.

“You seemed so into him.” Beth shrugged her shoulders. “I didn’t want to spoil things for you. But hey, I dropped enough hints.” She paused. “Remember I told you he was an idiot, when he said there would be no room in your new place together for your artworks? Even though he knew you’d been collecting them for years? What did the dickhead say? They weren’t the most stylish of choices, and better off at a charity shop?” Dave had not been particularly taken with Beth either. He also never said much but a few times did try to stop Leanne from going out with her best friend. And what about the time when he mentioned how irresponsible Beth was, told Leanne she should get her spare key back? Apparently, it irked him that she had one too. “Anyway, forget about him,” said Beth. “We’re here to celebrate your promotion.”

“It’s a trial,” she reminded her.

“They’d be idiots not to promote you. We both know you’re getting the job.” Leanne had not wanted this celebration. Beth was laid off from work almost a month ago when her company closed and had not secured another position yet.
