Chapter 25 An Outsider Part 2

• An hour later I was at Marcel’s mansion, after pulling on a baggy pair of jeans that I held up with a belt, a cropped beige long-sleeved top and twisted my hair into a messy knot on top of my head.

• Leo and Nikki were here, and if they had argued before there was no sign of it now. He looked effortlessly handsome as ever, in black jeans and a dark grey short-sleeved shirt, leaving his muscular tattooed arms on display. He was wearing shades and he had a cigarette between those lips of his. He leaned against the wall of the mansion as Marcel put slices of meat on the barbeque.
