The Biggest Social Gathering

— Lilith POV —

Stunned was an understatement.

I was furious, embarrassed, in shock, and all at the same time turned on and probably jovial with how that kiss had unfolded.

The moment his lips crashed onto mine, I was gone.

We were in our own world and I had given into Alexander Edward Harris.

When I heard Riley's voice I knew we were fucked. The world would now think it was a love match.

I couldn't let myself be lost in the storm of emotions I was feeling. I had to push it all aside and think of my next steps.

The Annual Harris Family Ball is the biggest event of the year. 

It wasn't just the rich and powerful of the city, the influence of the Harris family extended to the entire country and everyone who was anyone would be in the Ball.

People would offer up their children for an invite. It was a social climber's dream event. 

To be invited to the Harris Family Ball was a symbol that you'd made it.
