Tristan directed Georgia toward the ballroom and directly toward the bar set up in one corner of the enormous room. He hadn’t intended to kiss her. Not in such a public forum. A hugely public forum.

It was probably not a wise choice. If Dippy and Finola got wind of his public display of affection toward Georgia, they would likely see it as weakness on his part. A distraction from his purpose here. And they would both get the idea that they could wheedle their way into the position of leader of the rebellion.

What they wouldn’t understand was that the kiss wasn’t a display of affection, but a display of lust. A lust that would be quenched tonight.

He looked back at Georgia. She stood to the side of the large room, wide-eyed as she took in her opulent surroundings. Absently, she touched her fingers to her glossed, rosy lips, and his body reacted instantly. She was remembering their kiss. So was he.

“Good evening, sir,” the bartender greeted him. “What can I get you?”

Tristan ordered two more champagnes. Not the quality of what they’d been drinking earlier, but good enough. Good enough to hopefully calm his raging need and keep Georgia relaxed. Although he didn’t think he’d need liquid lubrication to get her back to the suite with him. She was ripe for his seduction.

He let his gaze slide down her body as he approached her. He wouldn’t need any sort of lubricant tonight. He could smell how ready she was for him.

“Here you go.” He held out the champagne flute.

She accepted, giving him a teasing smile. “I think you are trying to get me drunk.”

“Maybe,” he agreed.

“Shame on you,” she said, but then took a sip of the golden liquid.

“Well, Peaches, you know I’m very determined when it comes to getting what I want.”

She nodded, and for the first time, he saw some of the wariness that she usually kept wrapped around her. He didn’t want that. He loved the relaxed woman who had appeared in the limo, who had allowed his kiss, even with photographers and journalists watching every moment of the embrace.

He also realized he didn’t want to be at this event any longer than necessary. He wanted to be alone with Peaches—as soon as possible.

That meant he had to get his act together and do the work that was needed for the takeover. He casually took a sip of his own drink, casting a gaze around the room. He easily spotted the men he needed to see tonight: Garwood Higgins and Frank Barrington.

Higgins was the editor of Grace, a highly popular rival magazine, and Barrington was one of the most famous fashion photographers in the industry. And both men were greedy and highly ambitious.

Both had been ridiculously easy to recruit. They were humans who wanted the ability and strength of demons. They’d been more than willing to sell their souls for more power. And tonight was the time for them to pay up on having their deepest desires granted.
