Chapter 14
I glanced down at the address Damon had texted me and then back up to the building before me. The numbers matched, but I was pretty sure I was in the wrong place.
Ambrosia Royale was something straight out of a fairy tale. I couldn’t believe Damon lived here.
Unlike the Meridian, which was a casino built for the high class, Ambrosia Royale looked like a massive palace.
Stretching as far as the eye could see, the windows were lit up and the entire area was surrounded by greenery. Finely cut grass and topiaries and flower beds of every kind. It looked exactly like the kind of thing you’d see in a European castle.
There was even a gorgeous fountain with stone statue cupids out front.
This is where Damon wanted me to go?
Feeling very out of place, I sucked it up and took the long drive up to the entrance. When I got out, there was a man in a suit waiting out front.
“Welcome to Ambrosia Royale, a luxury casino. May I help you today?” the man asked in an accent. He was clearly not from around here.
“Uh, yeah. I’m here to see Damon Steyn,” I told him.
“Name, please?” the man asked.
“Adelaide Hildebrand,” I told him, quickly.
The man nodded once, “Oh, yes. Everything has been arranged, you may go right on up. Take the elevator straight up and you’ll be there. You can’t miss it.”
“Uh, thanks,” I said as the man nodded once and offered his hand out. I reluctantly handed over my keys and he took them gently, taking my car and parking it for me.
I climbed the stairs up to the entrance, holding onto the marble railings. I felt very much like a princess in a movie.
Ambrosia Royle was quiet- unlike every other casino, I’d been in. The man did say it was a luxury. casino and he was not kidding.
From floor to ceiling, everything was dripping with a luxurious atmosphere-even the games were quiet as men in suits and women in gorgeous dresses played. The sound of muted conversations filled the rooms.
It was actually more relaxing than I thought it would be. The pillars were carved, every inch detailed, and the floors were marble. Accents of gold showed up everywhere I looked. Gold was always the biggest sign of wealth.
