Hello, Happy Easter and welcome to another six sentences! Hope you are all enjoying the holiday and managing to get plenty of rest. My six this week come from further on in my 'Scarlet' story for Yellow silk dreams new anthology:
As Katy began the long descent she felt several of the guests’ eyes upon her. She slowed her walking to a regal pace, suddenly feeling as if she were the most important guest in the room. She felt as if everybody was waiting for her to give the signal before they could begin to enjoy themselves.
When she reached the bottom, she instinctively waited until one of the male guests stepped forward to take her arm and lead her to the grand table with its beautiful linen cloth.
“What are you doing?” whispered Ellie once they had all taken their places and sat down.

Lol. I wonder where these notions of 'grandeur' permeating here are coming from. :)

ReplyDeleteVery intriguing! :)
ReplyDeleteI liked her descent as a high ranking courtier. Nicely done, Gemma. :)
ReplyDeleteFantastic six ~ I'm intrigued!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what she is doing!
ReplyDeleteShe's right into it - love it!
ReplyDeleteI want to know, too! Well done. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat six. I'm now curious what the dinner is in aid of.
ReplyDeleteAh, the grand entrance now is what follows equally as grand? Very nice Six!
ReplyDeleteYou captured that entrance beautifully, excellent 6!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome. Now I really want to know more. As someone who hates when all eyes are on them, that scene made me cringe, but then I was probably using my own POV. *lol*
ReplyDeleteI love how the snippet regarding her dress led to this. It keeps that same nervous energy and it definitely pulls one into wanting to read more. Sorry for the late comment, btw ;p
