Chapter 17 The Stairwell Secret

Hand in hand, the two people walked forward

Nina sured out the window-and suddenly let out a Star, excited Abr

She had recognized them manty

Even with hats and masks on, she knew the diseased Zoe and Assir

She was especially sentive to their presence

Nielsen, confused leaned closer. What’s wrong”

But before he could even finish Nina Sid right off her chair

Her linde legs pumped as fast as they could go, chasing after the two adults.

The waiter supervising them froze for a moment-exactly long enough for disaster. It was peak dining bour, and the restaurant was crowded shoulder-to-shoulder

Nina, being the round linle sippery ish he was darted through the forest of long adult legs and vanished.

The waiter’s soul left his body

His knees turned to water.

Meanwhile, the targets of Nina’s pursuit-Zoe and Alistair-were still lost in the thrill of sneaking around in public.

Zoe, you like this, don’t you?” Alistair’s voice was low as he traced circles on her palm. See? We can hold hands, even sneak a kiss right here. No one recognizes us. Isn’t it exciting

He knew exactly what Zoe liked

To her fans, she was pure, innocent, untouchable.

But in private? She wasn’t nearly as saintly

And Alistair-well, he was a flirt by nature, with connections to some very questionable crowds

A man like him knew exactly how to make a woman’s heart race.

His teasing left Zoe breathless

She curled her fingers back against his palm, answering him without words

“Come on. This way

Alistair tugged her toward a corner near the emergency exit-a security blind spot.

The moment they reached it, he pulled off his mask, pinned Zoe lightly against the wall, and kissed her.

It was heated, messy, hurried-two people chasing a forbidden rush.

Between kisses, Alistair’s hand slipped into the hem of her shirt.

“Mmm-don’t…” Zoe whispered, her protest soft and weak, more breath than words.

Alistair just gave a low, wicked chuckle and pressed closer.

Lost in their secret thrill, neither of them noticed the tiny figure peeking around the corner.

Nina had found them.

She peeked for only two seconds before a small hand suddenly reached out, grabbed her, and covered her eyes.
