at Hugh to see what it was.

“What are you doing, Ashley?” Hugh asked, even though his eyes were for Finch and Finch

alone.

“Covering the mirrors,” Ashley replied. “You requested we keep Mr. Finch’s suit a surprise, so

we’ll need to keep them covered during the fitting.”

“Ah,” Hugh said, sounding like he hadn’t heard at all. He smiled sweetly at Finch. “Right.”

For the next hour, Finch stood and had a suit they wouldn’t let him see be tailored to him. Pins

were stuck in so many places that he started to feel like a pincushion. At last, the suit was

taken off him and whisked away.

“Would you like a new outfit for him to wear out?” Ashley asked.

Hugh looked eager. “Do you have anything ready?”

“Naturally, Mr. Drake. Mr. Finch, do you have any color preference?”

Ashley smiled at them both. “Something purple, it is.”

“Is it?”

“Well, in my opinion, you could get away with wearing just about anything and still look

stunning, but this is really something else. Keep your back to the mirrors, now. I want to do a

grand reveal. Just wait until you see yourself.”

While Finch kept his back to the mirrors, there came the sound of fabric moving through air.

Ashley had uncovered the mirrors, and all Finch had to do was turn around and look. His gaze

was stuck on Hugh, however. The dragon was looking at him through partially lidded eyes,

adoration spelled plainly across his face.

“You look amazing, Finch.” Hugh’s voice was soft and reverent. “Turn around and see for

yourself.”

Finch turned to look in the large mirrors behind him. He’d been dressed in charcoal trousers
