She slowly turned toward Amara.
Amara looked back at her.
Guilt immediately appeared on Juliet's face. She had dragged Amara here, dragged her into a private club, and nearly gotten both of them arrested. Now she was the only one who could go upstairs.
Amara saw the guilt instantly.
"Go."
Juliet blinked.
"What?"
"Go surprise your fiancée."
"But what about you?"
Amara rolled her eyes.
"I'll survive."
Juliet still looked hesitant.
Amara sighed and grabbed both of her shoulders.
"Juliet."
Her voice softened. She gave her a gentle push toward the elevators.
"You came here for Vincent. Stop worrying about me."
Juliet bit her lip.
"I'll make it up to you."
"I know."
Amara smiled.
"Now hurry before the party ends."
Juliet's eyes softened. Without warning, she threw her arms around Amara and hugged her tightly.
Amara groaned dramatically.
When they finally pulled apart, Juliet looked excited again.
Amara pointed toward the elevators.
"Go."
Juliet nodded and hurried away, clutching the access card tightly in her hand.
Just before she reached the elevator, Amara suddenly called after her.
"And don't forget to call me afterward!"
Juliet stopped and turned around.
