I don’t realize when I manage a small smile, easing the tension inside me, at her dramatic expression. Lily is one hell of a crazy girl. But don’t get me wrong, she’s a good person and very dependable. She doesn’t believe in mates and marriage; she believes in sex and vibes instead. I met her here at Moon Eclipse College, and she is the late Gamma’s daughter. She was the only girl who would stand up for me anytime I was bullied.

Forgive my manners, my name is Audrey O'Connor, and I am a freshman in UCLA—we all are—me, Lislie, Liam, and two other of my female friends that you will get to meet soon. Liam had been my best friend since middle school, and we had remained buddies from then until now.
