Enjoy this excerpt.

“Julia!”

“Julia! Over here!”

“Julia!”

The screams from the sidewalk outside pierced my ears before the limousine had even rolled to a complete stop.

My hands fumbled, barely allowing me to dab on some powder. “Good enough, let’s get this over with.”

The glass shield separating me from the driver began to descend. “Are you ready, ma’am?”

“Yes, thank you.” Hopefully, the driver could hear my voice over the sound of my heart pounding. My sweaty palms nervously smoothed out my grey wool skirt. The crowd seemed to be moving closer. I don’t owe them, or anyone for that matter, an explanation.

The driver swiftly opened my door, allowing in a sea of flashbulbs. My now ubiquitous forced smile overtook my face. I stopped to pose for the cameras, grateful there were velvet ropes separating the multitude of photographers and reporters trying to get close to me.

Julia, what is your reaction to this latest round of accusations? a voice yelled from my left.

I turned abruptly on my heels, facing the direction of the voice, as the heat rose to my cheeks. “I try not to pay attention to petty rumors.”

Spinning back around to the right, I addressed the waiting crowd. “Thank you all so much for your support.”

I waved before turning back to the left, trying to brush off the last question. It’s none of their business. Waving once more, I headed into the stately building without looking back.

The large entryway was quiet, and the marble wall felt cold against my body; a welcome relief to the heat of the tension outside. I was thankful to have escaped the media relatively unscathed. A moment of calm, so foreign to me now, briefly took over.

The double doors at the end of the hallway creaked open, breaking the silence.

Susan began to walk toward me. “Oh good, you’re here. They’re ready for you now.”
