"And wolves love people like that."
Alexandra's eyes narrowed.
Katherine noticed immediately.
"Hmm? Don't look at me that way. Nothing like that happened to me."
Alexandra did not relax.
Katherine sighed softly.
"But I came pretty close to getting hurt, yes."
The room went quiet.
Alexandra changed in an instant. The irritation vanished, replaced by something sharper.
"And you haven't told me about that until today?"
She stood up and slammed her hands on the table hard enough to make the coffee cup rattle. As she leaned over the table, the towel shifted slightly, though she did not seem to care.
"You hid that from me?"
Katherine did not flinch.
She had faced investors, directors, reporters, stalkers, jealous actresses, and men who smiled too much while standing too close. Her little sister's anger hurt more than any of them, but she still did not flinch.
After taking a slow sip of coffee, Katherine placed the cup back down.
