Bunny Girl's Deadly Voyage
Chapter 2
A triumphant expression spread across Drew's face.
Luna immediately dragged both of us to a nightclub to meet up with her little crew.
Music pounded against my eardrums. The stench of alcohol and cheap perfume made my head spin and my stomach turn.
I just wanted to get the hell out of this place.
The moment I stood up from the booth, a hand with neon green nail polish pressed down on my shoulder.
"Where do you think you're going, my dear sweet sister?"
Luna and her gang of delinquents surrounded me in a tight circle, malicious grins plastered across their faces.
Drew snatched my bag away and roughly dumped everything out onto the table.
Lipstick, keys, student ID, and finally my phone with the recording app still open on the screen.
"I knew you wouldn't come here without some trick up your sleeve!"
Drew's face twisted instantly. She grabbed my phone and slammed it down on the table.
"You b*tch! You were recording? Planning to run crying to Mom and Dad again like their perfect little daughter?"
I stared coldly at her hysterical display. "I can delete it. I won't tell them anything."
Then I deleted the recording file right in front of everyone.
In my past life, I really did show that recording to my parents. That was why they locked Drew up for the entire summer.
Now that I was reborn, I just wanted to be a spectator. I had no interest in saving these idiots.
"Drew, don't believe her!"
Luna shot her a meaningful look. "She deleted it way too easily. She's probably got another recorder hidden on her somewhere, or maybe even a spy camera!"
Drew's expression darkened immediately. She lunged forward, grabbed the neckline of my dress with both hands, and yanked down hard.
The fabric ripped. In an instant, I was completely naked.
The girls around me burst into laughter and whipped out their phones to take pictures. Camera flashes blinded me as vile insults flew from every direction.
"Wow, nice body!"
"Look, look! This is definitely going viral on the forums!"
A wave of unprecedented humiliation crashed over me. I desperately tried to cover myself with my hands.
"Tina, you walked right into this one. Don't blame me."
Drew's voice was practically dripping with vengeful satisfaction.
I curled up in the corner of the couch, trembling all over.
Luna's eyes raked over my body with interest.
She leaned in close to Drew's ear, smiling like a snake. "I have a brilliant idea. Bring her on the cruise ship with us."
Drew hesitated. "I don't know. Won't she steal my thunder?"
Luna continued persuading her. "Think about it. Twin bunny girls? That gimmick alone will make us five times the money! Plus you can keep her close by and make sure she doesn't run her mouth."
"Deal! Let's do it!"
Drew's eyes lit up like she could already see dollar signs.
She ordered her gang to pin me down. They pried my mouth open and forced glass after glass of hard liquor down my throat.
My consciousness was quickly consumed by alcohol.
Luna snapped several half-naked photos of me.
"You’d better cooperate tomorrow, and there'll be something in it for you. However, if you try anything stupid, these pictures will be plastered all over your campus!"
Then I passed out from the alcohol.
When I woke up again, girls were sprawled out drunk all around me. The air was thick and foul.
I knew that once I got on that ship, there would be no turning back. I glanced around and spotted a half-empty bottle of vodka on the corner of the table next to a still-burning scented candle.
I staggered to my feet and deliberately slammed my body into the table.
The bottle and candle toppled over together. Blue flames shot up instantly, igniting the tablecloth and the curtains nearby.
Thick smoke billowed through the room, and the fire alarm screamed. The private booth erupted into chaos.
Within moments, nightclub security kicked the door open and rushed inside.
I kept my head down, slipped through the panicking crowd, and stumbled home with my clothes in tatters.
Mom and Dad were sitting on the couch with grim expressions on their faces.
"Where's Drew?" Mom's voice was sharp and accusatory.
"Why isn't she back yet? She's not answering her phone!"
My heart sank. They did not even glance at my disheveled state.
Dad walked up to me. His eyes were full of suspicion and rage.
"What did you do with Drew?"
Before I could explain, a slap landed on my face.
"I'm warning you, Tina! Drew has to get on that ship! It's her only chance to make it big! Don't you dare ruin this for her!"
I pressed my hand against my stinging cheek, and the truth hit me like a freight train.
They had been reborn too, and they felt absolutely no guilt over my death.
Disappointment and resentment flooded through me.
Just then, my phone rang. It was Drew calling.
I was about to hang up when Mom snatched it away and put it on speaker.
Drew's arrogant voice blasted through. "Tina! You b*tch, just you wait! I'm coming home right now to drag your ass onto that ship. Don't think that running away will stop me from getting rich!"
While Drew was explaining things to them, I turned and bolted for the door.
The very next second, Dad kicked me in the back of my knee. I collapsed to the floor in agony, unable to get up.
Mom walked over slowly, carrying a cup of soy milk.
"Tina, this time around we won't let you destroy our family's fortune." A venomous smile was on her face.
