She looked so different. On the phone, Duncan had told her he had a surprise for her tonight, and he didn’t mean the piercing. She felt giddy. Was tonight the night he’d propose? The night he’d change her? Whatever it was, she wanted to look special. She wasn’t sure why she’d allowed Mona to talk her into buying the slinky black dress the previous night, but now she was thankful the woman had insisted.Standing in the bathroom, she even spent extra time on her hair, pulling out her hated curling iron and twisting the long strands into something that looked elegant. She didn’t care if his surprise was Duncan simply telling her he loved her, she wanted to look special for him tonight.He’d never know precisely how much he meant to her. She paused, her hand freezing before she could apply the eye shadow. Well, he could know if he looked. Closing her eyes, she searched for him. She still wasn’t very good at the telepathic communications, but she could feel the warmth radiating from the door that would lead her to Duncan.
