Dangerously yours

CHAPTER THREE

SKY's POV

I stare at my reflection in the mirror, I look really beautiful. Wow. 

From my lightly made up face, the dark mascara highlights my big green eyes, red lipstick that makes my already pouty lips look Poutier, the expensive red dress I got as a birthday gift from one of my girlfriends Tracy. 

The dress is a small number that dips slightly down between my breasts and gives an eyeful of cleavage, the waist clinches and the dress flares out and hugs my hips tightly, it stops at the top of my knees gracefully. 

This dress annunciates and flatters my curvy body. 

I mean if I am going out with my brother, his girlfriend and Reid then I need to look my best. 

I am obviously not dressing to impress him or anything. I am just want to look good. 

I put on silver strap heels that make my calf look good and my legs look like they go on for miles and wiggle my pink tipped toes. 

My thick blonde hair falls in loose waves that fall across my back and they look pretty great. I thank the heavens for my Mother's genes. 

I do a small twirl with a smile. I look spectacular if I should say so myself.

I pick Dorothy's bowl and fill it up for her . I walk out of my bedroom to my small living room and call out her name. 

"Dorothy girl, come here girl!."

She comes running out of kitchen, tail wagging and all happy. I laugh. 

I had been on my way back from  making a couple of cupcake deliveries when I saw Dorothy on the roadside. 

She had been abandoned with a broken leg. 

The poor thing was shaking,hungry and scared to death. I couldn't possibly leave her there. 

I wrapped her up in my jacket and drove her to the vet. I couldn't even think of letting the sweet girl go and I ended up taking her home. 

Since then she has been on of the joys of my life.  

I crouch and rub her belly for a while, then I pour her food and water into her dishes. I check the time and It is thirty minutes to the time. 

I quickly grab my keys, purse and shut the door behind me. 

It is just a twenty minutes drive from the restaurant, as I drive there I can't help but be nervous. 

I'm seeing Reid again. So many thoughts. Most especially Of relief that he is finally home because the anxiety of knowing he was out there risking his life constantly was absolutely terrifying , the pent up emotions are just overwhelming now that we are in close proximity. I sigh. 

I don't want them to think I'm still a trembling little girl. 

So I take a shuddering breath, straighten my shoulders and put on a brave face.

I arrive at the restaurant, i pick up my purse and walk into the establishment, as a waiter guides me to the table. 

Luke and his girlfriend see me approach and stand up, Luke hugs me and draws out my chair while Jasmine reaches out and also hugs me. 

I sit down and quickly look around. 

"Where’s Reid? Running late?." I ask Luke. 

“He sent a text, he will be here soon." He looks towards the door as he says so. 

Luke’s phone rings and he takes a quick excuse to answer the call. 

I direct my gaze to Jasmine.

She looks absolutely stunning in her designer green dress with a crow neck, diamond studs and Louis Vuitton shoes. 

Her fashion sense is impeccable as expected as her mother was once a world renowned Model so she got her mother’s beautiful flawless golden Olive skin, thick black hair, a slender body and trim waist.

She and Luke started dating a couple of months back. 

They both work at the same law firm and that’s where they met.  She’s a criminal lawyer and can hold her own in court. 

Her dad is a major partner in the firm and thus when some people will call it nepotism and she only got the job because of  her father’s influence she seems to be an intelligent and capable lawyer.
