Rylie Cruz 3 - How to Date a Demon (29 page)

“
At least you’re getting to
spend some time with Cole.” I gestured toward my right at the
corner of the room.

She glanced over and gave a bashful
little wave to him. People crowded the dance floor with moves that
I assumed they thought was dancing. It looked more like the zombie
apocalypse.

Finally the disc jockey announced the
last call and that Lily would be tossing the bouquet.

“
Just get this thing over
with,” I mumbled.

Lily stood in front of us. A huge
smile spread across her face. She genuinely looked happy and I was
happy for her. For once, we weren’t arguing with each other. We’d
come a long way. It could have been the fact that she’d had four or
five too many strawberry daiquiris though.

Jack watched us from our table. He
winked and before I had a chance to wink back, something hit me in
the face and landed at my feet. I looked down and my stomach
dropped. The hideous black rose bouquet had landed on my ugly brown
pumps.

Jennifer snickered and the rest of the
women deserted the dance floor like roaches who’d been exposed by
the light. I was standing out there all by myself. Wasn’t anyone
else going to try to rip the flowers from my hands? Lily glared at
me, placing her hand on her hip and letting out a heavy sigh. I
groaned and reached down and picked up the bouquet.

“
You’re next,” she said with
too much jubilation.

I didn’t believe in curses or
superstitions anymore… or did I?

fun novels with a paranormal twist. The paranormal has always
captured her interest. The thought of finding answers to the
unexplained fascinates her.

When she's not writing about
werewolves, vampires and every other supernatural creature, she
loves eating cupcakes with sprinkles, reading, spending time with
family, and listening to oldies from the fifties.

Rose lives in the beautiful
commonwealth of Kentucky with her husband, son, and two sassy
Chihuahuas.
