Harper

I stopped looking at myself in the mirror. My dark lavender dress, cut short just above the knee with a slight slit on the right thigh, hugged my curves tightly. It wasn’t often that I felt I looked perfect, but tonight was definitely one of those nights. What would Mason think? He had seen me dressed up and dressed down, and not dressed at all. But deep down I still wanted to impress him, to make him desire me. Nothing compared to the thrill of Mason wanting me.

The door swung open as Avery made her way into the room, her face flushed. “Something just isn’t right Harp.” Avery waited for my response.

“What’s up?”

“I don’t know, he just seems suspicious”

“He who? Asher?”

“No, Mason. There was this girl in there, a blonde, who was obviously trying to flirt with him, and you know what he did? Gave her a big smile and I swear he was trying to flirt right back.”

I rolled my eyes. “Avery, that’s his job. He has to make people feel comfortable.”

“I don’t trust him.”

I bit my lip, deciding to change the subject. “What was Asher like?”

“I didn’t see Asher,” she complained. “Mason did the introduction for us. I even asked both him and Natalie where he was. They both blew me off.”

“Maybe Asher couldn’t make it.”

She sat down on the bed in a huff, crossing her arms. “Just seems off to me.”

“What are you trying to get at?”

A knock on the door interrupted us. Hunter’s voice echoed through the door and I could feel my face flush, remembering our last embarrassing encounter at the pool the night I had slept with Mason. “Harper, we need you out downstairs.”

“Coming!” I yelled, and then turned to Avery. “Do you think you can handle everything yourself? I’m not sure I’ll have time to come back up.”

“That’s fine.” She paused, looking me up and down. “You look hot, girl. Just be careful, okay?”

I frowned at her as I opened the door, leaving her behind to find Mason waiting in the hallway. He had changed into his suit, complete with a tie. He looked a lot like he had the first night I had seen him, handsome and mysterious as ever. “You look absolutely beautiful.”

I grinned, feeling a bit timid for some reason as I fumbled for the right words. “I’ll try not to spill wine on you tonight.”

He chuckled. “I wouldn’t care if you did. Are you ready for this?”

“I think so.”

“You’ll be fine.”

His reassuring smile comforted me. I wanted to touch him, but didn’t dare as I glanced at the dark tinted camera mounted on the ceiling. I wondered if Asher was watching now.

“Harper,” he whispered in a low voice. “I need to tell you something, before this begins.” I froze, looking at him curiously. He seemed distant, withdrawn. His eyes traveled back over to me, his face serious. “Harper, I didn’t expect things to have gone the way they have, especially so quickly...”

“Yes?” My heart stopped. A thousand thoughts ran through my mind as I stared at him, hanging on his every word.
