"I promise you that they will love you." I take in a deep breath, square my shoulders and lift my chin. OK Vee, let's go have dinner with a pack of wolves.
Max climbs out of the car and walks around to my door to open it for me. I love how chivalrous he is. It makes me feel special. He opens the car door and extends his hand for me to take. I clasp it as though my life depends on it.
He leads me up some extravagant marble steps and the double front doors open for us. We walk into a large, modern entrance hall with a fireplace and sofas. It's mostly white, except for a few splashes of grey, pink and gold. It's gorgeous. There are several doors leading out of this room. The one directly opposite us is another double set of doors that are currently closed, but I can hear noise behind them
