Chapter 20

“We have three different packages to choose from,” Andrea, a representative from the venue Luna and I were checking out, said. She had dark brown hair and her lips were painted in a very unappealing shade of plum.

Despite the fact that I was here with a woman and looking at a wedding venue, she kept running the tip of her tongue over her lip and shooting me these obscene little glances. It was ridiculous.

“Okay,” Luna said, scooting to the tip of her chair. “Would you be able to walk us through each one?”

Our meeting was taking place in one of the conference rooms at the hotel we were looking at. The room was on one of the higher floors and opened up to a wide balcony with cocktail tables set out on it. If I had to guess, I assumed it was where the staff took their breaks.

Obviously, this woman hadn’t been trying very hard to impress us when she’d booked this room, but that seemed to have changed as soon as I told her my name. She’d smoothed out the plum skirt of her uniform and assured us she’d give us a proper tour of the facility later, but that unfortunately the other, better meeting rooms were occupied.

I’d rolled my eyes at her, but Luna had tugged on my hand and convinced me not to walk out. After reminding me that this venue was one I’d actually chosen for us to look at, she’d given me a pointed look that said behave and then followed the not-nice lady into the elevator.

Andrea gave Luna a wide smile now and nodded. “Sure thing. Although I’m sure you two wouldn’t be interested in our Bronze package. It’s the lowest one,” she added in a stage-whisper, following it up with an annoying giggle.

I opened my mouth to tell her we weren’t looking for ourselves, but Luna cut me off. “Actually, we’re interested in hearing about every package you have.”

For the remainder of our discussion, Luna played along with the woman’s assumption that we were the couple looking for a venue. She even put on an old, rich woman’s voice and used words like “pish-posh” and “marvelous”.

It was too entertaining watching her like this to worry about setting Andrea straight or about why Luna had played along in the first place.

When they were done talking about the different packages, Andrea sat back in her chair. “That’s what we offer at each of the four different venues we have. There’s the ballroom, the rooftop restaurant, the garden, or the balcony.”

She flicked a finger at the balcony leading off of this room and let out that giggle again. “Not this one, of course. There’s a much bigger, more suitable one several floors down.”

“Let’s have a look at them all,” Luna suggested, then laced our fingers together and brought our joined hands up to plant a kiss on the back of mine. “What do you think, darling?”

“I think you’re absolutely right.” I curled my lips into what I’d been told was a charming smile and leaned over to kiss her temple.
