Lyra
"Ready?" I asked Sally, turning from the mirror. She looked like an angel in her light blue dress, her white-blond hair cascading in perfect ringlets down her back. She would be a hit amongst the males at Ryan's birthday party.
"Almost," she said, fumbling with a necklace. "How do I look?"
I smiled. "Perfect, as always." I glanced at my own reflection, smoothing down the folds of my silk blue dress. It was the one Ryan and I had picked out together on our shopping trip. I loved how it made my green eyes pop.
Dressed in finery, my make up on point, didn't stop how my stomach twisted every time my mind replayed Killian's words.
Ryan and I had promised each other no more secrets. Cool, right? But a future? That wasn't going to happen. Not with the Luna trials looming over us.
