Unmasking the Heiress by Sisi Yea

Just thinking about it infuriated Julia, so she was determined to get even with Walter. She was determined to relive every moment she had dreamed of sharing with Walter.

Julia snuggled into Walter's embrace, a little bird seeking comfort, as the smooth melody of a waltz filled the air.

They danced to the rhythm of the music, Julia pouring her heart into every move, her grace in stark contrast to Walter's more relaxed approach.

Lost in the dance, Julia's mind drifted back to the time when she had first stepped into Evangeline's shoes to save Walter. He had been so tender and careful with her, his voice so soft as if he feared she might break into tears. Walter's gentle murmur tickled her ear, sending her into a sweet daze.

"Julia, do you like how I look today?"

As Walter spoke, his gaze was not on her but scanned the surroundings. He knew Evangeline was supposed to be watching, hidden somewhere close by.

Pinpointing Evangeline's location was key to the rescue.

Julia leaned her head against Walter's shoulder, her eyes shimmering as they met him. His rugged good looks, accentuated by the shadow of stubble on his chin, left her utterly enchanted.
