After the party

She’d talk to Tristan after the party She’d tell hiame plan for the future In ti possible Becca had to come first Always

Sydney didn’t sleep for the rest of the night

chapter fourteen

The mansion looked like it had puked up the color pink

Tristan placed the platter of chips on the table, snatching a crunchy Cheez Doodle, and tried not to be intih to keep hins and the pink glitter, streaaily wrapped favors, he didn’t knohere to look Little girls in elaborate gowns and high-heeled "glass" slippers seemed to be everywhere They carried purses and wands and all wore tiaras

So did the grooround, but Syd and Morgan kept hi broken costuht pink punch bowl Fake gems cluttered every table surface, and they’d already had a scavenger hunt for soic mirror Poisoned red apples bobbed in a jewel-encrusted bucket The strains of "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo" exploded from the speakers

He was kind of in Disney hell

"I’m scared"

Tristan turned toward Dalton "Be cool," he said "Stick to the walls, where they won’t notice you"

His brother gave a shudder "I tried, but they found hts, but I told her no way She’s still a little pissed"

Tristan laughed "Where is Raven anyway?"

"She wanted to finish up at My Place before picking up her costu to be, but"

"What?" Dalton was looking at the front door, suddenlyand stopped cold

Oh, yeah This party was getting outrageous, and there wasn’t even any alcohol

Raven was dressed up as Maleficent Clad in a long black goith an elaborate headpiece that gave her black horns, she held a scepter and surveyed the crowd like she’d flown in on her wings and decided to crash a princess party Her dark hair was pulled back tight fro scarlet lips, pale skin, and heavily accented eyes that burned like dark coals

He wouldn’t have recognized her if it hadn’t been for her wicked wink as four girls gasped and stared at her in pure wonder
