“You should have seen the way the three of them looked at each other, it was a smoke show,” Skylar teases.
“How is everything with that?” Magnolia asks.
“He’s not answering our texts or phone calls.”
“He’s doing what he thinks is the right thing to do, Rose,” Skylar tells me.
“I know, but after we walked off stage all we wanted to do was call him and find out if he watched the interview and what he thought about it,” I explain.
"Will he be at your engagement party tomorrow?" Magnolia asks.
I shake my head, sadly. “He will be at the wedding.”
Magnolia nods in understanding.
“Anyway, I can’t believe you are here. How the hell did you get away from Dante?” I ask.
My sister chuckles. “He will be at the engagement party with Enzo. My leash is not that long.”
Oh. “And things seem to be fine between you all?”
Magnolia rolls her eyes at me. “I ignore them both. It suits me well.”
“Bet that is going down like a lead balloon.” Skylar chuckles.
“Yes, they are not fond of my silence, but it is what they get,” she explains.
“Thought you would have jumped Dante’s bones by now,” Skylar teases.
Magnolia lets out a heavy sigh. “Ew, please I’m not desperate.”
“What about Enzo? He’s cute,” Skylar pushes.
Magnolia shakes her head at her. “Like I said, I’m not desperate.”
“You could make Dante jealous by flirting with Enzo though,” Skylar states.
Magnolia stills and then bursts out laughing. “Now that’s a thought. Could you imagine how mad Dante would be if I was sleeping with his best friend and not him?”
“As if Enzo would do that to Dante though,” I add.
“I’m sure Maggie could be very persuasive,” Skylar says, wiggling her brows at our oldest sister.
“I think I would need to have drunk a bottle of champagne to get the courage up to attempt something like that.” She chuckles.
The fact that she is thinking about it gives me pause. My phone vibrates in my pocket and when I look down it’s a text from the prince.
“Hey, tell the prince no booty calls, it’s sister’s night,” Skylar tells me.
Augustine: They’ve found a loophole. Come to my office. All of you.

ROSALIE
Today is our engagement party and all the most powerful and influential people will be attending the event. I decided on something bold, I wanted to make a statement, but in a classy way. I know what these events are like—stuffy and full of old, judgmental people. I want to liven it up a little.
The stylist pulled this stunning, bright fuchsia evening dress that has tiny clusters of fuchsia sequined flowers all over it. My chestnut hair has been pulled up into a plaited bun, and the queen has allowed me to wear one of her royal tiaras to the ball.
