The Story: a scarf, a present wrapped very poorly, a kiss V2

Version 2



Emma, dressed to the nines in a tight black dress, sashayed through the entrance of the hotel. With a red scarf tied around her waist and red stiletto shoes adorning her feet, Emma looked simply stunning.


As she strutted down the lobby to the reception area, all heads turned her way. Even the group of men seated at the far corner of the lobby couldn't help but did a double, triple take as she passed by their lounging area. She was that gorgeous!

Feeling like a million dollars from all that attention, she almost tripped on her feet. Mentally admonishing herself, she put on an air of fake confidence as she strode to the reception area.

She wouldn't allow such train of thoughts derail her from getting her hands on the priceless diamonds. She knew one tiny mistake is all it takes to throw a wrench in her plans. And she just couldn't afford that. Not now. Not ever.

After collecting her key card from the reception, she took a tentative step before picking up her pace as she walked to the elevator. Once she rounded the corner and was out of sight, she darted to the opposite end of the staircase where a door leading to a secret room was located.

By the time she reached the door, she was a bundle of nerves that she needed a minute to catch her breath. Clammy hands wouldn't do her good in breaking and entering. After she had calmed down enough, she took out a bobby pin from her hair and started picking the door lock. Like clockwork, the door unlocked with a click.
