CHRISTIAN'S POV
I stood in the foyer of Regina's mansion, my eyes glancing at my watch as my fingers drummed in my side with impatience. Lucy was late and wasting my time.
After a while, she appeared at the top of the stairs in a black lace dress, her lips in bright red as she walked down the stairs.
She smiled when she saw me, striding across the mansion towards me, with a smile.
“Christian...” she whispered, her eyes gleaming with happiness. “You look so handsome.”
“Lucy, you look lovely,” I said just loud enough for Regina to hear from her hiding spot at the top of the stairs where she watched us like a hawk, a determined expression on her face. I took a step towards her and took her hand, raising it to my lips for a soft kiss. Lucy blushed, her eyes filled with satisfaction.
I took a small peek at her mother. I needed to show her what she wanted to see.
