The Party
THE SELUNA GIRLS · VOLUME ONE
The Party
at 12:12.
No winner has been chosen.
Every House is still in play.
TWELVE HOUSES · TWO SIDES EACH · NO DECISION YET
THE PREMISE
Every House has two sides.
You decide who you believe.
The original TikTok carousel girls and the website story cast each have a claim on the twelve Zodiac Houses. One circle has history. The other has evidence. Neither has been declared the winner.
At Leona King’s birthday, the two circles meet. At exactly 12:12, every phone lights up with the same message. Choose a side in each House, but expect the relationships to change what “versus” means.
THE HOUSE PAIRINGS
The Original Twelve
meet the 12:12 Circle.
Same House. Two girls. No predetermined winner.
Some pairs become enemies. Others become friends, sisters, former lovers or reluctant allies. And some realise the House has been manipulating both of them.

SIDE B · THE INVITED TWELVE
The 12:12 Circle.
One girl from every Zodiac House. Each arrives with a reason to be chosen and something she cannot afford to reveal.

She runs toward the fire, especially when she started it.
Thea Santos
She remembers what everyone else touched.
Mina Chen
She knows both versions. Neither is the whole truth.
Cass Moreno
She keeps the screenshots and the feelings.
Leona King
It is her party. It may not be her guest list.
Vera Dela Cruz
She noticed what changed at 11:47.
Lila Sayegh
Everyone tells her their side.
Sloane Moreau
She does not forgive twice.
Sachi Laurent
She is always almost leaving.
Capri Villanueva
She has a plan for the aftermath.
Aster Okafor
She sees the pattern from outside it.
Piya Navarro
She dreamed the room before she entered it.
CHAPTER ONE · THE INVITATION
Everybody got
the same message.
At 12:12, every phone in Leona King’s apartment lit up at once.
Not rang. Not buzzed. Lit up. Twelve pale rectangles reflected in the windows above the city, each carrying the same line:
YOUR SIGN IS NOT YOUR ALIBI.
For one full second, the party stayed beautiful. The cobalt light still caught in Mina’s silver eyeliner. Ari was still laughing with her head thrown back. The record kept turning beneath a song nobody could hear anymore.
Then Sloane dropped her glass.
It did not shatter. The rug was too thick for that. It landed softly, almost politely, and rolled beneath the velvet sofa where Thea’s hand moved to catch it. When she leaned down, she saw something else beneath the fringe: a gold pendant shaped like a scorpion.
Across the room, Sloane’s neck was bare.
“Cute,” Mina said, holding up her phone. Her voice was light, but she had stopped smiling. “Who decided tonight needed a theme?”
Leona did not look at the message. She looked at the guest list on the marble counter. Twelve names. Twelve women. One name had been crossed out in black ink, though she remembered writing the list in gold.
Vera checked the time on the oven clock. 12:13.
“This was scheduled,” she said.
That was when every phone received a second message.
ASK THE SCORPIO WHAT SHE DELETED.
Sloane finally looked up. For the first time that night, she looked afraid.
