The Assassin's Weakness: The Confradia Assassins 1

Adrian and I are sitting in a nearby French bistro, celebrating our successful debut as a dancing duo. I laugh when he rubs his hands with a gleeful smile and giggles.


"Oh, my goodness, girl, we killed it tonight. We were amazing!" He squeals out with a hand on his chest as he dances gleefully in his seat. "I'm going to order some wine to celebrate."


I smile at his enthusiasm. "Yeah, we were pretty impressive."


The restaurant, Adrian chose, is beautiful. The floors and ceilings are an Ivory marble color, and there is a wraparound balcony around the restaurant that creates a romantic ambiance. Too bad, my date is gay. The waiter, Colin, is really cute, though. Unfortunately, he's also gay. After he introduced himself, he began flirting with Adrian. But to Colin's disappointment, Adrian is too in love with Mason to pay him any mind.


Adrian is searching through the menu, muttering to himself while I consider what to get. "See anything good on that menu?"
