By the end of the day, Kate... «This Savage Song»
RamingoWS8 ноября 2017By the end of the day, Kate was untouchable. Word had obviously spread -- at least through the senior class -- about her stund with Charlotte in the girls` bathroom. Most kept their distance, went quiet when she passed, but a few took a different tactic. "I love your hair." "You have great skin." "Your nails are amazing. Is that iron?" Kate had even less patience for the would-be minions than the Charlottes. She ahd seen people grovel at her father`s feet, try to plead and con and worm their way into his graces. He told her once that it was why he preferred monsters to men. Monsters were base, disgusting things, but they had little interest and less talent when it came to gaining favor or telling lies. They were hungry, but that hunger had nothing to do with ambition. "I never have to wonder what they want," he`d said. "I already know." Kate had always hated mo nsters, but as half the school steered clear and the other half tried to make advances, she began to see the appeal.
