"It's time to stop looking at the soul of your foot." Said Victoria over the noise of the velvet warm shower trickling down on my skin.

"Huh What?" I said looking up from the floor. I looked down and there nested in my hands is the sole of my foot. In the sole of which has a weird trippy tattoo. I let it go like a guilty secret. I wasn't sure how long I'd had spent looking at it. In true I wasn't sure when I had started looked at it. I just found myself looking at it then zoned out. This unnerved me. It was like waking up from a dream not remembering when you had fallen asleep. I got out of the shower and dried off. My pink hair had finally been removed, or rather displaced by Sabrina's powder blonde. Before getting in the shower Victoria had given me a pill which used Lycan tech to make my hair blonde. My hair had metamorphosed on me. Now out Victoria handed me another pill. I looked at it.

"What's this?" I asked her.

"Lipstick," Victoria said.

I looked at her "honestly lipstick in pill form? Is it safe?"

Victoria shrugged "It's from Mac."

"Yeah," I said, "but is it safe?"

"Why does no one ask about that with normal lipstick? I mean, do you know what goes into those things? Like I never got the idea of mineral make up. I mean what if it's a mineral Yellowcake oxide rich in uranium and thorium or some arsenic ore mineral?" Victoria continued.

I let her rant "Is it safe?" I asked.

Victoria put her hands on her hips."It's safer than being strapped to an exploding pig or being dumped in an airlock. You choose."

"I'm glad it's been EPA approved like that," I said swallowing it.

In the mirror I watched my lips morph wolf-like to a vivid shade of red. Specifically Sabrina's shade of red. They also swelled up slightly.

"Furb" I managed to say despite the extra weight on my lips "Did that pill come with its own liposuction or did someone punch me in the mouth when I was asleep?"

"It's Sabrina's prescription but I wouldn't rule that out if you keep whining. I can't believe Lycan cosmetics are a surprise to you."

"How long until it wears off?" I asked.

"Well until you take another colour or you have the antidote it's a gene edit." Said Victoria.

In the mirror, I looked a lot more like Sabrina than I had previously guessed.

"So let me get this right most Lycan women edit their own DNA just to look good," I asked. Victoria looked at me like I was five "Dieting, exercise, plastic surgery is an attempt at editing flesh, it was only a matter of time between that and cosmetic gene therapy."

I guess she was right.

In the Alpha's personal quarters Victoria had laid out some of Sabrina's clothes on the Alpha's massive bed. She, Bex and a Pandora helped me get dressed, finally ending in winding a corset around my waist. I had to stand holding on to something while Victoria tightens the laces behind me. Once it had fitted there were clasps at the front I could use to put it on and off with without adjusting the laces. I think what worried me most was that someone had thought all this corset business through.

"How's that?" Victoria said As Bex grabbed a shelf load of make-up and started on my face with enough pale foundation to smooth out Alvord Desert or most of Oregon whichever is the larger.

"It's fine" I began "I'm sure these are really big with people who believe that breathing is overrated."

Bex looked over, "citation needed", she said changing brushes as I closed my eyes.
