It was near sun up when Sarah leaned in and suggested they work on costumes tomorrow. "Kali said we should go as warrior women."
Katelina hadn't intended to go to the ball, let alone dress up. "I don't have any clothes that would work."
"I'm sure we can borrow something. If not from Kali than from Annabelle or some of her friends."
"I don't know. I'm not sure they feel friendly toward us."
Sarah opened her mouth, as though to ask why, then shut it. "We'll manage. See you tomorrow."
Just as she promised, she was waiting for Katelina at breakfast. She gulped her glass quickly, then disappeared to "look for costume parts."
"I'm not dressing up," Jorick said firmly. "I'll be working."
"So will I," Jamie said.
Verchiel grinned. "I wouldn't mind a costume. What are you going as, Kately?"
She groaned. "Sarah wants to go as warrior women."
Verchiel's grin grew. "That sounds fun. Tight leather and tiny crop tops."
