Although her face was hidden behind her mask and she wore a dress no one would recognize, she kept to the shadows as she watched the dancers.
Would he come or would all her planning be for nothing? Would she even recognize him or would he be lost among the masks and elegant clothing? Her anxiety increased as the hours passed with no contact. In a bold move, almost born of desperation, she stepped out on to the dance floor. She knew she risked discovery but she had to take the chance if she were to find him and finally make her escape.

Ooo a bit of intrigue here. I love the way you've shown her angst. Will she escape? Great post!
ReplyDeleteGreat bit of tension...hope she finds her man!
ReplyDeleteI'm so intrigued, Angela! I'd love for you to expand on this in a future post so we find out how she ended up there, and where she goes!
ReplyDeleteTerri, I haven't a clue!! This is one of those posts that needs the "I am not a writer" label. Once in a great while I get a little scene but that is it. I can't imagine writing a whole book :-)
