Rage of Innocence
Brooke was pretty sure she knew why she had been summoned into Rachel’s office. She waited outside, dressed in a floral-print Dolce and Gabbana dress and blue suede Christian Louboutins, both freshly delivered from Barney's. She wanted to appear mature, adult, and demure, projecting the image of a young woman who was savagely attacked by a little blonde monster from the ninety-nine percent who was hating on Brooke for no reason other than the fact that Brooke owned shoes that the mangy little snow rat could never afford.
Or something to that effect.
Would Rachel buy it?
Brooke doubted that. Granted, given the history between Rachel’s family and Brooke’s, it was hardly likely that the red-haired telepath would ever take the brunette empath’s side on anything.
Meanwhile, Bobbi was probably getting taught how to make ice cream with her powers so she could give herself a treat whenever she picked on someone better than her.
She sighed and continued waiting for Rachel, reading out of a book of short stories by Edith Wharton. At least Edith Wharton could always be counted upon to bring some class and sophistication, if no one else could.
