Chapter 1

My best friend was using my intimate photos to catfish guys online.

My body plus her face? No man could resist.

For months, she bathed in the attention. Until the day she accidentally hit on her own boyfriend's secret Ins account.

Just as she was about to take things further, the message came to me instead.

Tyler, her boyfriend, texted me,"Aria, your body is fucking hot!"

The first time I caught my best friend using my private photos to catfish men online, she already had a boyfriend.

She even laughed and told me, "You know that mole on your inner thigh? Tyler noticed it was gone. I told him I had it lasered off."

I stared at her, confused.

She smiled like it was nothing. "Oh, forgot to mention. When I first met Tyler, I meant to send my photos but accidentally sent yours. You don't mind, right?"

What shattered me wasn't just that incident, but learning she'd done this with countless men before him.

I've never liked taking photos. Growing up, I was bullied for having curves.

She convinced me I was wrong. "Beautiful things deserve to be preserved," she told me.

So I took a bunch of boudoir photos with her.

I never imagined they'd become one of her tools to please men.

With her face, she was always the pretty one.

But she's skinny.

She once told me, "My face plus your body would be a killer combo."

That bothered me a little. I told her right away, "You should delete all my photos from your phone. What if you accidentally send the wrong ones again?"

She waved it off dismissively. "Won't need to. I'm really into Tyler. Not planning to switch guys anytime soon."

That's when it hit me. She only used my photos when she wanted to hook someone.

Meaning this wasn't a one-time thing. And definitely not an accident.

From then on, I kept my guard up around her.

Until one day, I suddenly got a DM from Tyler on social media. He sent me a photo of myself in lingerie.

Tyler said. This is my burner account, don't tell Becca!

I accepted the request.

Then he sent over a bunch more of my private photos. I saw there was even a video of me changing clothes that had been secretly filmed.

Then he wrote. "These are all you, right? Now I get why my buddies broke up with her. Total false advertising."

I asked him, "Where'd you get that video?"

Tyler sent me screenshots of his chat with Becca.

"You kept saying Aria has a nice body too, right? Give me 500 bucks and I'll show you."

Tyler transferred five hundred without hesitation. Becca immediately sent him the video.

Becca also said. "Pretty average, right? Plus she's got scars all over her body, just in places you can't see. She wouldn't even qualify to be a hooker."
