>>21202253But competition wasn’t the only thing Lexi craved. It was nearly a week since she last drained the life force of a human male. Her longest spell of abstinence since arriving in Spaghetti Town. But a party seems to be ongoing at a nearby bar, so Lexi struts toward the crowd, looking out for any sign of a worthy target.
Wait. Is that Kasumi? Lexi almost didn’t recognise her without the tuxedo. They had tagged together once, and she was an ally of Cassie’s, but Lexi didn’t much care for this woman. She was so painfully *human*. Erratic. Stupid. Just what someone like Cassie who had every bit as much of The Foremother’s blood pumping through her veins as Lexi could see in someone like Kasumi was beyond her understanding.
Perhaps it was because Cassie spent so much of her life thinking of herself as human. Or maybe there was something she didn’t understand about Kasumi, aside from the fact her choice to target the illegal woman during their tag match was likely the thing that cost Lexi her 100% record in the WWA.
Lexi rolls her eyes, and sends a quick text to Cassie.
>Hey workaholic! Why don’t you take a breather, pop a bikini on and come out to the beach? Wear yellow so we match! Your friend Kasumi is here too.
