~Valeria~
"Can I think about it?"
"Of course. But the event is this Saturday, so don't think too long."
"Saturday as in three days from now?"
"Is that a problem?"
"It's just... short notice."
"The best opportunities usually are."
Before I could respond, Zane appeared at my elbow like a storm cloud in human form.
"What opportunities?" he asked, his voice deceptively casual.
"Zane," I sighed. "How long have you been standing there?"
"Long enough to hear pretty boy here trying to lure you somewhere."
"I wasn't luring anyone anywhere," Landon said smoothly. "I was extending an invitation."
"To what?"
"A social event. This Saturday."
Zane's expression darkened. "What kind of social event?"
"The kind that's none of your business."
"Everything involving Valeria is my business."
