Taking a deep breath, I lifted my chin, meeting his expectant gaze. "Okay fine then. You can go wait in the car while I get ready."
His face lit up and he smiled widely, reaching out to cup my cheek. "That's my girl. I knew you'd come around."
I resisted the urge to recoil from his touch, instead offering him a tight-lipped smile. "Just go wait in the car, Kieran,"
As he turned and made his way back to the waiting limo, I let out a shaky breath, and got back into the house.
"What are you doing, Selena?" Skylar's voice echoed in my mind in a concerned tone.
I assured my wolf that I got it under control. With quick light steps, I made my way to my bedroom.
After a long while, I stood before the mirror, scrutinizing my reflection with a critical eye. The short, scarlet dress hugged my curves in all the right places, accentuating my hourglass figure. Of course I wasn’t going to be wearing the gift Kieran brought me.
With a steady hand, I applied my makeup, painting my lips with a deep crimson hue that complemented the fiery tone of the fabric.
