THE FINE DOCTOR’S HAND, though not the doctor of whom this office belonged ( this was a hospital and really, there were too many doctors around ), inconspicuously slithered past drawers, past documents, over things sage kalverson knew embrosyn vallieré would have his head for. but too bad ! if ever there were a man who remained bold under the scrupulous, intimidating force of embrosyn, it was him. sage may have been the only soul brave enough to openly defy the industry’s most - insufferable in fact, he’d practically made an art form out of it. finally, the zenith of this not - so covert operation, his finger dipped in a drawer he knew embron deliberately kept locked. oh, but he knew the combination ! a funny little number : zero - one - three - one, and there it was. like clockwork, the drawer opened to reveal a golden treasure, radiant and gilded like the sun. sage grinned. the doctor and his damn penchant for butterscotch.
it was a glowing stash of yellow wrapped in beautiful cellophane, piled in a heap of delicious candy. each and everyone, they all bore the symbol of luxury, the motif of ladurée paris. naturally, sage plucked one into his hand and quickly popped it into his mouth. he really could always depend on em, especially when it came to candy stashes !
BUT THE DOOR OPENED, and sage kalverson froze like a deer in headlights. perfect timing, he thought sourly, leave it to embron.
BUT THE FACE THERE could not have been that tall, furrowed - brow man. the person there the woman, rather, she was much too splendid. sage kalverson considered himself a man far different from his father, more quiet, more reserved, but damn, if they didn’t share the same great appreciation for spectacular women. the blonde stopped, slack jawed. ″ hi. ″ he uttered abruptly, indulging himself in the sight of her. what an odd visitor to embron’s office, he thought, she seemed shy. ″ uh, yeah, no, definitely not. i’m too short. ″ and he came to approach her slowly, and in doing so, discovered a surprise far greater. one - word : PRINCESS. that was when it hit him. this was the visiting princess on the television, her royal highness of bohemia. ″ princess ! ″ sage exclaimed suddenly, ″ you’re the princess. the blonde one, thesingle one. ″ suddenly, the doctor threw out a hand. ″ wow, you are absolutely beautiful. sage kalverson, head of the anesthesiologist department here. you’re . . WOW. ″ and you’re here for … embron, he thought.
