Paper Faces - 20. Tulip

My body is singing, my pulse drumming with the music as I look around Edward's apartment with new eyes. My mind rebels against the thought of one person owning all of this as my eyes settle on a vase of fresh tulips at the end of the bar.

I seek him out automatically and find him across the room, his head bent low as he whispers to a woman. She cuts her eyes to me and back to him smoothly.

He nods toward Garrett; she nods to him.

His hand is hot on my back when he returns. "Let's go."
