Chapter 0565

“Kristen. Will you stop fidgeting!” Emmy pulled on my hair as I kept twisting in the chair.

We were currently getting ready for the Winter Ball and not once the last few days has Gunther or Zac got into contact with us. We had no idea what they were doing, who they were doing it with or how they were doing it. The longer it went without contact, the more agitated I was. The chances of see Anthony and Ann tonight were high so [ didn’t want to go in blind.

“I’m sorry. I’m just so anxious.” “I’m trying to pin your hair to the side.

I might just get your head!” Emmy gave me a took as she held up a bobby pin.

“First off, that wouldn't hurt that much and second, why aren’t you more anxious?” Emmy hat as a challenge and pushed the bobby pin into my head. Smirking as I flinched, she stopped hurting me.

“I’ve had longer to deal with anxiety and it isn’t as obvious. Plus, Jasper is taking some of it away.” “Alec is making me feel it all.” Folding my arms, I just sat back and waited for Emmy to be done.

Since my dress was a one shoulder, I had Emmy curl my hair and pin it to the one side in a swoop. She had finished my makeup, keeping it pretty natural but gave me a red lip. I guess with a white dress, the red is key.

Alec and Colt were doing some work and then would come get us so we

could follow each other. The roads were slick as it started snowing again.

At this point, we had a few inches on- the ground already and a few more to come.

Knock! Knock! Knock! “Hello?” Vivian stuck her head in the door and yelled.

“Hey! Come on in!” I yelled back. noveldrama

“Adalynn is in here!” After hearing each shoe fit the floor, the closet door opened and closed before she came into the bedroom.

“She looks so happy!” “She had been playing in here for the good part of an hour.” I was surprised she was happy here. Usually she wants out and to roam around my bedroom.

“Oh wow! I'll take her and get her some supper before bath!” Vivian picked her up and started walking out. “You are amazing. Thank you!” “I am just about finished and then I'll do my hair.” Penny was sitting in the corner and putting on press on nails as we bickered. “How are they looking?” asked her.

“Good!” She held up her hand for me to see. She went with a classic white nail with some silver bands to match her jewelry.

“Love them!” “All done!” Emmy patted my arm for me to get up. “Don’t ruin my master

piece!” “This is your best work yet!” I said as | carefully sat down next to Penny to do my own nails. There were a set of fully black ones that I loved.

“When I’m good, I'm good!” Emmy tossed her hair back and made a big deal of it.

“Just like old times!” Smiling sadly at Emmy, she blew me a kiss.

“It’s better. We know who we are going home with so it makes it so much more fun.” “Shit, I never brought anyone home.” Rolling my eyes, I kept working on my nails.

“Didn’t stop you from making out with people?” There was a pang in my heart as she bypassed Ace’s name.

I still knew I never loved him but he was always there for me. “So did you.” I said instead of the obvious.

“Well, you both were little sluts.” Penny put down the glue and stood up.

“HEY!” I said but I couldn’t help the smile on my face.

Penny walked over to my closet and slipped inside. “I’m just saying. I saved myself completely for my mate.” She yelled out.

“Colt didn’t.” I muttered under my breath.

Emmy busted up laughing as Penny stuck her head out. “What was that?” She narrowed her eyes at me.

«I fucking love you!” Finishing one hand, I started working on the other.

“When will Jasper be over?” Penny asked as she retreated.

“Any minute.” Emmy looked at her watch and at the window. “We are getting so much snow.” “I know. Fucking white bullshit ruins my mood.” Looking at my nails, I was ready to get dressed. Penny walked out looking sexy as hell.

“Someone is pulling up.” She said as she walked to the window and looked out.

Wanting to be fully dressed, practically ran to the closet and started dressing. “It’s Jasper!” Emmy sang out.

My heart sank a little but I still got naked and pulled on my dress. It

always gave me so much pleasure to be naked under dressed as it turned Alec on.

“My turn!” Emmy ran in here with her hair still in the curlers but she was already half naked.

“Too bad I don’t have my camera!” I laughed and gave her some privacy.

“Camera for what?” Jasper walked in wearing a black tux with deep blue tie.

“Emmy’s appearance resemebles her life before you.” “What do-" Jasper stopped mid sentance when Emmy walked out in the most amazing midnight blue dress.

“you look fucking amazing!” I said in

shock. How Emmy took he hair down and pinned it back so her back wouldn't be hidden was beyond me.

She was literally in that closet for three minutes.

“My turn!” Penny walked out in her elegant purple dress. She looked like a princess with her hair curled down her back and smokey eye shadow.

“Damn.” I heard Colt behind me.

As I turned, my eyes made contact with Alec. I got the pleasure of watching his eyes run down my body and back up.

“pamn is right.” He muttered as he came up to me. Slipping his arms around my waist.

«Don’t ruin my hard work!” Emmy screamed at Colt and Alec.
