did you talk to him?

"hello, caerus."

i snap my head to the side.

it's leonard.

"can i join you?" he asks.

my heart starts beating a little faster at his proximity. i didn't even hear him walk out onto the balcony.

"sure."

where is my dad? i thought they were talking about business.

he smiles and leans against the rail next to me. an expensive balenciaga shoe is an inch from my shoes and i can smell the cologne rolling off him in waves.

"how's your night going?" he asks sounding friendly.

i wish i hadn't told terrence to leave me alone for a few minutes. now i'm alone with him.

i put on a smile. "good. and yours?"

"well i got what i came here for."

his stare makes me nauseous and i subtly look back into the penthouse to see if anyone is paying attention.

"that's good to hear. i hoped you and my dad could work things out."

he grins but it's not real.

"your dad is a tough guy to keep up with."

i nod sweetly. "he works very hard."

where is terrence?

"what about you?" he asks, his voice dropping down to just above a whisper.

it sends shivers down my spine.
