      Night Of The Living Wed - Michele Hauf

      Chapter One

      Charlotte winced as an inebriated party-goer stepped on her foot, but she kept moving determinedly toward the doors that led to the balcony. The Duncans would be delighted with their party; it was clearly the event of the season, and their daughter had been successfully launched into society.

      Unfortunately, the noise, the heat, and the crowd combined with Charlotte’s pounding headache to make her want to escape for a breath of fresh air. Reaching the balcony doors, she opened them to find two people engaged in a passionate kiss.

      I’m sorry. The words escaped her mouth before she realized it would have been better to make an exit without being noticed. The couple jumped apart.

      Charlotte felt the blood drain from her face as she stared at her fiancé. John! I thought you were dead!

      John dropped the woman in his arms and rushed to Charlotte. You’re okay?

      Of course I am.

      Then why did you think I was dead?

      I was being sarcastic! I haven’t seen you all night. You didn’t even join me for the toast. After our fight in the car, I assumed you wanted some space. I don’t know why you can’t agree to allow a priest to marry us.

      Charlotte, I’m a scientist, I don’t believe in—ah, forget the argument. Don’t you realize what’s going on?

      Besides me finding you in some woman’s arms? Really, John?

      Forget her, too, John said, indicating the woman draped over the balcony railing like a doll dropped on her stomach. They’re here, he said ominously.

      He glanced over the balcony and Charlotte followed his gaze. On the rose-laden grounds below, a scatter of
