Excerpt
The car pulls up to the entrance, where a
long staircase is lit by torchlight. I suddenly feel like I’m Elizabeth in
Pride and Prejudice arriving at a fancy ball. Except at this party the
pulsating sound of the DJ spinning music and the crowd screaming can be heard
inside our car.
I
look over at Clayton with a raised brow.
“I
warned you,” he tells us. “Georgie loves to throw parties.”
“I
like him already,” Orie says with a good deal of excitement.
Clayton
pulls my black wool cape over my shoulders and helps me out of the car. He
takes my hand in his and Erik and Orie follow.
He
lifts my hand and brushes his lips against my knuckles.
“I
can’t wait to get out of here,” he says in a low voice.
“We
just arrived,” I whisper back.
“And
I’m already done sharing you,” Clayton says as I look up at him. “I want you to
myself.”
God,
I can just get lost in those eyes of his—
“Careful,”
he chides as I literally trip over my own two feet and almost fly head first up
the stairs. Clayton has to help me steady myself.
Trés
embarrassante! That’s French for very embarrassing. Erik might have a point
with his whole trés obsession.
But
then I’m not embarrassed anymore because the double doors are opened and we
enter what can only be described as a Versace circus. There are medusas and
lions everywhere. Medusa statues, medusa paintings, lion emblems, lion statues,
and all are in the shiniest gold I’ve ever seen. The couches, tables and chairs
are done in either deep purple, green, or gold, and it’s so loud and totally
over the top that I think Gianni Versace would be jumping around in glee.
