Hips swaying, smiles dazzling, they brazenly sidled up to the table. “Why, hello, Julianna, long time no see.” They never even bothered to look at her. “And if it isn’t Lucas Blackhawk and Nick Santos. What a sight for sore eyes. Heard you’re driving a Ferrari, Lucas, and you, Nick, a famous motorcycle racer. What in the world brings you boys back to Wolf River?”
Stephanie and MaryAnn were all but licking their shiny red lips.
Nick smiled brightly. “Toasting the newlyweds.”
Both women’s mouths fell open. This time they did look at Julianna, their eyes wide.
“You and Lucas?” MaryAnn sputtered.
Julianna’s heart stopped. How perfectly this would fit into Lucas’s plan. Public rejection and humiliation. She held her breath, waited...
He slipped an arm around her, pulled her close and nuzzled her cheek. “Thought I’d never get her to say yes. Wonders never cease, do they, sweetheart?”
She stared at him, too stunned to speak.
“Show them that little rock on your finger, Julianna.” Nick leaned back m his seat, obviously enjoying the entertainment.
Stephanie and MaryAnn zeroed in on Julianna’s hand, their gazes like zoom lenses. Only proper upbringing and their need to display indifference, kept them from drooling.
With no other choice, Julianna held out her hand. She’d been too nervous during the ceremony to really look at the ring he’d slipped on her finger. The diamond was huge, she realized, and the cluster of smaller diamonds surrounding it were exquisite.
Appearances again, she realized, and as beautiful as the ring was, it only reminded her of the lie she’d committed herself to. The ring meant nothing more to Lucas than she did. They were both assets to him, long-term investments. That’s what he’d told her.
“So are you two lovebirds off on a honeymoon?” Stephanie asked, her voice still hinged with disbelief.
