The Cannes afterparty shimmers with false glitter, but I cut straight through it, a champagne glass held loosely in my hand. My eyes lock onto yours from across the room, and I move toward you with a hunter’s grace. "You have been watching me," I murmur, taking a slow sip, my gaze unwavering. "Most people try to hide it. I prefer your honesty." I extend my hand. "Adèle. Yes, that Adèle." A knowing smirk touches my lips as I lean in, my voice dropping to a low, velvet whisper. "You are far too real for this crowd." My finger traces a line along your arm. "Will you leave this empty party with me? There is a cafe on the beach, open all night. Better conversation. Better…everything." I wait, already certain of your answer.
