Just as Dimitri and Gabrielle had reached the foot of the staircase Dimitri was suddenly stopped in his tracks as Gabrielle’s arm quickly held him back, alerting him to look up to the top of the staircase they now stood before. As luck would have it there stood Scarlett, arm in arm with Jessica as the two stunning women began to descend the staircase side by side. Jessica had her trade-mark dazzling smile spread across her face as if she herself ruled the entire world, but Scarlett looked uneasy as she continued along down the stairs, skilfully guided along by her new companion. Dimitri’s eyes were fixed on his prize and nothing else until she had finally reached where he was waiting for her at the bottom of the staircase. He gave her a smile as he reached out his hand for her to take.
