Night of Destiny Novel by Vanessa K

She tried her best not to watch Zacharias and the lady dancing. Yet, she couldn’t help her eyes from wandering when she saw Zacharias putting a hand on the lady’s waist, and the lady’s hand was on his shoulder. They were shaking hands, too. At this point, she’d forgotten about the wine she was tasting. Her heart was squeezing with each interaction. All she could taste was jealousy.

Since Shirley was now alone, a few of the gentlemen there had their eyes on her. They’d like to be acquainted with this exotic lady. Plus, it didn’t hurt that she had a smoking hot body.

Even though Zacharias was dancing with another lady, he was paying attention to Shirley. When he saw her drinking alone, his heart tightened as well. Just then, another guy was starting to hit on her. He wanted to end the dance right away. Fortunately, the dance was only about six minutes. The foreign lady finished the dance, looking bashful. Nonetheless, there was delight in her eyes as she remarked shyly, “You dance well, Mr. Flintstone. I’d love to dance with you next time.”

“Excuse me for a moment,” said Zacharias politely. He then strode up to Shirley.
