Down with Love

Chapter 3

Revenge is Sweet

-------------------------------

Hello again! You may be wondering why I look like the cat who got the cream. The reason is revenge. Revenge is a bitch and payback can be hell. Mina found that out the hard way.

(Flashback Mina's house)

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. BANG!

"Ungh." Mina got up from her pillow and stretched. What a wonderful day! All she wanted was a nice, hot shower to start the day. She turned to the mirror to brush her teeth. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!"Mina fell flat one her butt. This couldn't be happening. She put her hand in her hair and felt the sticky substance. Ew….

She opened the medicine cabinet in the mirror hoping to find her shampoo. It wasn't there. A note was.

A little honey for a girl just as sweet!

For the DEVIL'S SPAWN you wanted me to meet.

Great. Not only did she have no shampoo. She would have to go out and buy some more with this mess in her hair. Sere would pay. Oh she knew it was her. For some reason Sere had a problem against Darien Shields. And she was going to find out what. But for now she had to get dressed and put on a hat till she got her miracle shampoo.

-------------------------------------------------

She got her keys and was looking for her shoes. "There they are!" Victory was hers. She slipped her feet into the elusive shoes…..only to step in something squishy. She pulled her feet out to find GREEN shaving gel.

Oh.

My.

God!

She found a note on the bottom of her sneakers.

And here's some green that looks extra nice

On a girl made out of sugar and spice.

Ew. This was beyond comprehension. How did Sere find a way into her house without her hearing? When did she have time to do all of this? Mina washed off her feet and found another pair of shoes. She locked her door and left the house. When she sat down in her car seat she let out a blood-curdling scream.

Pie. Not just any pie.

Cherry pie. On her nice white skirt.

It was definite. Sere….would pay. Another note was found on the bottom of the pie tin.

Here is a pie just to say.

Revenge is sweet and have a nice day!

Yours Truly,

Sere.

(End flashback)

I wish I could have seen the look on her face. Oh well. Revenge is still oh so sweet. Speaking of revenge... I still have to call in my favor. I pick up my cell phone and go to work

"Hello?" a voice on the other end of the line asked. It was good to hear her again.

"Lita? It's Sere. I'm glad to hear your dream finally came true. It's been a while. I need to ask you for a really big favor. All you need to do is……."

The plan was set. Now.

We wait….

Here's few chapters from my book. If you have mastered the rest of the chapters you are on a roll.

Congrats. No! I really am happy for you

Now that you are a Down with Love girl things really get rolling. If you are married the fun really starts. I don't think it wise you sleep around so let's spice things up in another way.

Stop being the one constantly doing things. Take charge. Make your husband clean the house or cook dinner. Go out for a night on the town. Leave the kids with a babysitter.

The rest is up to you.

Ladies who aren't married make things a little easier. Now that you are a Down with Love girl you're free. Make your mark in the world. Go out and turn heads. Make yourself an equal in the workplace. Those men that use to call are now at your beck and call. Not the other way around.

If you're in the mood stop by for a quickie and take your leave. You don't need love anymore. You have power! The power of lust. If your not in the mood he doesn't get anything. Start making the calls in your life. Don't let men make your decisions for you.

DOWN.

WITH.

LOVE!

--------------------------------------------------------

I'm on my way to LGM. If the taxi can go any faster. I think the old coot driving fell asleep. This is just what I need. The guy who used to play golf with God. I let a little giggle escape on that one. Don't worry. He probably didn't hear me anyway.

"We're here miss. That'll be $15.48." he smiled and a full row of gums stared back at me. Oh God! Please let me out of here. I throw the cash at him telling him to keep the change. Who knows? Maybe one day he will be able to afford some dentures.

As I walk into the room I see Molly at the receptionist desk. "Molly? Is that you? Wow you look great!" Molly has gotten her hair curled got contacts and has a whole now look and attitude. "Thanks. But as you said it's never too late. I even nailed me a guy. His name is Melvin. He's so nice to me and so sweet." She pulled out a picture of him to show me. "Let me see…HOLY SH- ahem…I mean he's GORGEOUS Mol!" Oh God! Someone get me a paper bag. I think I'm hyperventilating.

"I gotta go Mol. I'll see ya later. Good luck!"

-----------------------------------------------------------

It's time.

Mina and I watch as Lita tells the audience about her new restaurant/club. With only a few minuets left the host asks her if she has anything she wants to say.

"Yes, I'd like to recommend a book that is sure to knock your socks off ladies. It's called Down with Love by Serena Stone. Go out and get it ladies!"

"Thank you for being here Lita. That's all for tonight see ya next time everyone."

The plan was in action.

-------------------------------------------------------

It's been a month since that fateful day. Everyone around the country is talking about Down with Love. From Timbuktu to Australia they all want the newest sensation in success.

Life.

Is.

Good.

Tonight I have an interview on the Letterman Show and I can't wait.

-----------------------------(Darien pov.)

I walked down the crowded street. Down with Love. Down with Love. That's all any woman could talk about. This silly little spinster is ruining my life. I must have run my fingers through my hair 50 times. Any more and I could go bald. Then I could really kiss the ladies good-bye. Who was she? Who was this ugly little duckling and what did men ever do to her? Andrew said she had been quite mad when I cancelled on her all those times. I didn't care. The old broad was a waste of time in my book.

I looked up and into the bookstore window. Whoa! Who the hell was that? From her manicured feet up past her curvaceous, legs I swept the picture with my eyes.

It went over her full hips and small waist to a full chest, sparkling blue eyes, and impossibly long golden blonde hair. This girl had it all. But who was she? I looked and looked until I found a sign. The words almost made my eyes shrivel up. Serena Stone: infamous author of universal best-seller Down with Love.

THIS was the spinster? This was the woman making all this fuss? This was the Down with Love girl?

FUCK!

What had I DONE?!

-----------------------------------------------(Sere pov)

I stood with Mr. Letterman and smiled my dazzling smile. This was it. The moment I had been waiting for.

"So Miss Stone what is the reason for this sudden uproar in your book? Women buy it and hide it from thie husbands, and men buy it to find out what they're women are reading." he turned to me with his eyebrows raised. It was plain as day the man hadn't gotten any from his wife in a long time. I let out and inaudible snort. At least I know they are all following the rules.

"It's about rules to help them stop depending on men for sex. The rules help them get out in the world and go and work with men as equals. And if men don't like it…there is a strong possibility they won't be getting any for a long time!" I smiled an infectious smile just to annoy him. He glared at me from behind his glass when he reached to take a sip. Oh yeah. It was definite. This man hadn't gotten any in a VERY long time. But then..who was I to talk.

"In your book you talk about a certain kind of man they should dominate themselves over. Are there any examples for those unlucky men for the ladies out there?" he fixed her with a quick fake smile. His wife must be watching from somewhere. This was it. I turned to the camera and smiled the most vengeful grin you had ever seen.

"Darien Shields."

Ah revenge was certainly sweet.

Darien Shields….

Let the games begin.
