I turn to Hugo. “Thank you for the dances, and for an unforgettable evening.”
“Of course, my queen.”
I slide my hand into Liam’s waiting grip, and he turns us toward the doors. Whatever he means to tell me is waiting upstairs, making my pulse trip ahead of my feet.
As we reach the main doors, they burst open, and my heart slams to the bottom of my gut. All at once, the voices cut out, and the room drops into a strange hush, as if everyone’s been suspended in time.
A camera flashes, breaking through the collective breath-hold. More flashes, then the murmurs reach a fever pitch as chatter spreads through the crowd like wildfire. My hand slips from Liam’s, my legs already taking me past the press and the whispers.
All the people who bought the lie.
Because he’s here.
“Sebastian.”
His name rips out of me, soaring through the ballroom on a joyous cry as I fling myself into his arms, fallout be damned.
