03 The Fate Of The Muse - Marina's Tales - Plot & Excerpts
I applied my makeup as deliberately as war paint, smoothing my hair back and pinning it up. I scrutinized my reflection in the mirror, satisfied that I looked like someone who fit right in with the high fashion crowd. Dressed to the nines, polished and pampered, the girl in the mirror looked back at me with worried eyes. I slipped on some oversized sunglasses and set out to do battle. Boris had a car waiting in front of the hotel, and he escorted us to Shayla’s second fashion show. We were seated between a pampered American heiress and an Italian film star, both of whom could scarcely take their eyes away from Evie. This time I was too preoccupied to be amused by the spectacle, anxious for the meeting to commence so I could go home and see Ethan. I planned to call him as soon as we finished, and I couldn’t wait to tell him that it was all over. I missed him desperately, but I also craved the comfort of a good long surfing session. I thought about the wave in my dream and licked my lips, expecting salt, but tasting only waxy lipstick.
