Two Can Play (Celeste and Dominic) novel Chapter 597
"No. It would ruin the surprise." His voice was smiling. "Do you still trust me?"
"I trust you completely. I'm just curious."
"Then be patient, love. You'll get the surprise soon enough."
Love. He called me love. My stomach did a slow, pleasant roll, and I said nothing, letting the darkness and the hum of the engine wrap around us as he drove, reaching over every few minutes to rest his hand on my knee, a quiet reassurance that he was still there.
Eventually the car stopped. He helped me out, his hand firm around mine, and led me forward. I heard a door open, felt a change in the air, cooler and still, and then he guided me into a room and sat me down in a chair.
"Now." The blindfold came off, and I blinked, my eyes adjusting to the light. The room was full of people. Men and women, railings of clothes, makeup boxes open on tables, cases of hair tools, mirrors with bulbs around them like a film set.
"What are you up to, Kingsley?"
He leaned against the doorframe, arms folded, looking entirely too pleased with himself. "These people are here to get you ready. And afterward, I'll still need to cover your eyes again. It's not time for you to see the surprise."
I smiled at him, helpless and happy. "Okay." I sat down, and they went to work. The makeup was simple, but it was applied with so much technique I could feel myself being transformed with every stroke of the brush. When they were done and I finally looked in the mirror, I barely recognized myself. I looked like a princess.
They dressed me in white, a long flowing gown that whispered against the floor, and when I turned, he was still standing by the door, watching me, his arms folded, his eyes soft. "You look breathtaking."
"Thank you for making me look so beautiful."

The readers' comments on the novel: Two Can Play (Celeste and Dominic)
Agent Frost better teach Tasha how to protect herself if anything gets out of hand or if she’s ever in danger or forced again...
I need some good news for Tasha. Special Agent hear her out and don’t let her get back into that life. Do I hear a romance or someone Tasha can truly count on besides Scarlett??...
I hope Tasha is let off and helped by this detective and gets away from all this maybe a twist for this novel is she gets on the good side of things and gets away from that life completely even if she has to separate herself from Scarlett but it appears Tasha gets hurt by Scarlett’s and sparrow’s stupidity as she’s blamed for Scarlett’s decisions...
Her life is ruined and Scarlett’s been living a luxurious life through it all...
I officially hate everyone for hurting Tasha and allowing things to happen to her. This whole Sparrow and Scarlett situation is some BS....
It’s a bit stupid that as powerful and ruthless sparrow is he and Scarlett sure do a lousy job of protecting and having guard on Tasha. Like how did all of this happen to her if he was supposed to be protecting her based on the contract??...
More Chapters Please...
I thought it said 10 chapters a day??? It’s been like 2-3 days and no update after chapter 574. The release time is so inconsistent, I have started to just loose interest....
Just find Tasha and get her some help. How did she have sparrow’s men watching her if she really cared so much. Scarlett’s character is so suspect…...
Storyline is interesting it’s just so much sexual content I have to skip through just find out the main context of the story....
