“I did. Christos Devillo is my roomies secret crush. I’ve heard the buzzing from your vibrator late at night when you think I’m asleep in the other room. Sometimes you cry out in your sleep. I’ve woken up, run from my room to check on you. The sheets twist around your body and you moan, touching yourself.”

“Oh god. I’m mortified.”

“The first time it happened, I thought you were having a seizure. Get to Paris. I’ll have you looking like a queen.”

“You can’t tell him about me. Or tell anyone.”

“Relax. The after party is a masquerade. He’ll think you’re some foreign princess. Daddy’s new wife only invited royalty or old money to the ball.”

“He’ll never see me coming.”

“Exactly. Get your ass on a plane. You need to catch Devillo, so I can sleep at night without listening to your one-sided sex dreams.”

I grin, disconnecting.
