NAOMI
“Miss? Miss, we’re here.”
My mouth gaped open as I stared out the car window.
No.
Freaking.
Way.
Carlos, the driver, shut the engine off. And now he was climbing out of
the car. Which had to mean that yes, indeed, we were here.
Except we couldn’t be. There was no way that the colossal structure in
front of me was where I’d be staying for a whole week.
It’s a beach house.
That’s what they’d told me. But this wasn’t a beach house, it was a
beach mansion. Or a palace. Hell, I’d seen smaller convention centers.
There was no way this was the right place.
“Miss?”
Carlos appeared outside the window, startling the hell out of me. He
took in the expression on my face and grinned. “I promise, it’s even better
inside.” He opened my door, and I placed a shaky foot on the ground, still
staring upwards.
It was magnificent. Tall columns flanked a pair of huge doors that
looked like they belonged to a freaking castle. Except the colors were
wrong for a castle. The columns, walls, and even the doors were the color
of the sand I’d glimpsed in the distance on the drive over. The only things
that were dark were the windows, which seemed to be tinted against the
Florida sun, and the two gigantic palm trees that flanked the house.
I’d never even seen a real palm tree before my plane landed ninety
minutes ago. The Chicago area definitely wasn’t known for them.
“Naomi?” Clearly worried by my silence, Carlos had dropped the ‘miss’
part. “Are you okay?”
My throat felt dry. “Yeah.” Except that wasn’t very friendly. Carlos had
been nothing but kind. “I mean, it’s gorgeous.”
The driver grinned as he took my arm and helped me out of the car.
Normally, that was something I could manage on my own, but my limbs
seemed to be as shocked as my brain at the moment. “Again, just wait until
you see inside.”
I planned to, if my feet still worked.
Once he deemed me steady enough to let go, Carlos opened the trunk
and got my bags while I stared at the beach house again. Or beach mansion
or whatever it truly was. I had to crane my neck to see the roof, which
looked to be covered in some kind of rounded tile that made me think of
Spain. Was the house two stories? Three? More? It was impossible to tell,
but it was taller than its neighbors. Landscaped greenery surrounded the
house, giving it space to breathe.
Speaking of that, I took a deep breath. The air was fresh… but with a
note to it I couldn’t identify. It filled my nostrils with… salt. It smelled
salty.
It must be the ocean. Excitement filled me at the thought of seeing it for
real. Outside of movies and a brief glimpse from the plane, I’d never seen it
before.
