Blue Dahlia Nora Roberts Novels & Stories

Paul turned toward Nora, who smiled at the two couples on the couch. "It's nice to meet you. I promise Jon will not get out. I will do everything in my power to keep you from having to testify against him. With all the evidence, it shouldn't be necessary unless you want to." Nora held her hand out to each person as she spoke. Natalia immediately liked her. She was short, probably no more than five foot two, with short blonde hair cut in a pixie cut. As cute as she was, Natalia could tell she was all business and could command a room. She smiled at her.

Brian hastened to reassure the girl even as he nudged Maeve from his lap and stood up. Lea Diane, smiling with relief, and led the way to the room. She opened the door then stood to one side to allow Brian and Maeve to enter before her. She smiled at Maeve's gasp of surprise. The Dahlia Room was done in tasteful shades of green and red, suggestions of the flower in question here and there with the use of shadows and empty space. Great big vases stood on two tables, each holding three dozen of varying types of Dahlias and adding a subtle perfume to the air. There was a large four poster bed in the center of the back wall and some pieces of equipment Maeve didn't recognize along with a couple

Lia shuts off her alarm as she wakes up like she does every other day, but stops by her desk after getting dressed. There was a good sized box with a ribbon on her desk and a smaller one next to it. She opens the larger of the two and finds a new pair of shoes she had been telling her brother she wanted for training, but they had been a bit pricey and she was going to ask James about getting. Nash had got them for her. She set them aside and opens the small one. It had a set of headbands in it that had various flowers on them. She picked up one that had collarette dahlias. She notices another with waterlily dahlias.

MYLO I still couldn't believe Dahlia was actually here. Being away from her was painful, but walking into the house and being surrounded by her scent was instantly calming. She was in the bedroom fixing Nora up for the day, unaware of just how beautiful she was as she pushed her hair behind her ear so it wouldn't get in her way. "Would you like to get out of the house for a bit?" I asked, setting some piece of cloth she asked for on the bed as she was changing Nora.

Have I told you you look beautiful today?” Nora blushed at Damien's words, tucking a lock of hair behind her ear. “Yes, about a hundred times already,” she teased back, waving at a woman she recognized. “The party is going much better than I expected. There's...a lot of people.” “As expected. It's a party worthy of celebration. It's not everyday a beautiful woman gives birth to four beautiful babies.” “Oh stop,” Nora blushed again, patting Damien on the arm lightly. They were dressed in matching royal blue outfits and Nora had styled her hair in a high ponytail. Two locks fell at the side of her cheeks, framing her lovely face.

Dropping the bomb, the man went ahead with his work. Nora sucked in a sharp, trembling breath when she heard him. He sold this place, which once used to be their love nest. From this alone, she could deduce how disappointed he was with her. --- It was the night of the banquet. Nora washed up and tried the dress in front of the mirror. It was an off-shoulder sweetheart mini dress with tulle and floral details. The color combination of pastel pink and blue complimented her skin tone very well, enhancing her youthful appearance.

“And the sapphires.” My breath catches. Since our conversation weeks ago, my mother hasn’t mentioned anything about investigating Nora or the poisoned necklace. I’d almost begun to think she’d forgotten about it, or dismissed my suspicions as paranoia. Honestly, I’ve begun to dismiss them as such myself. “I found something,” my mother says, reaching into her handbag. She pulls out a folded piece of paper and hands it to me. “In Nora’s room.” I take the paper and unfold it with trembling fingers. It appears to be a handwritten recipe of some sort, with a list of ingredients and instructions. One line jumps out at me immediately: “Blue Hydrangea extract - 3 drops.”

Soon her evil mind plotted something horrible; a wild gleam appeared on her purple-coated lips. Nora rushed to the orchid and gazed at the beauty of the orchid one last time. Without a second thought, Nora took her sword and splashed on the twigs and walked on the buds, crushing them under her feet. Nora smiled at the orchid and looked at her maid. The maid came forward and Nora told her, "Summon the dungeon girl to clean the dirt." "My lady, my lady." Indigo rushed to Nora, "My lady, my lady."

"Of course, you can." Noura smiled happily. She approached dozens of blue roses. She plucked it carefully so as not to get hit by the thorn. "You like blue roses?" asked Orlan, who was already standing beside his mate. Noura gasped in surprise. "Yes. Blue is my favorite color." He had new information about Noura he had just got. Orlan will keep it in memory. Noura turned to a bunch of red roses; she smiled bitterly. Her face was gloomy for a moment. A flash of memories flashed through her mind, and Noura's eyes widened. What did she just say? Blue? Oh, how's this?

Dahlia nodded again and moved to Xavier. “Root stimulant solution, and a bag of compost.” She pointed to Denzel next. “Lime, and a middlemist red flower.” I gasped. This is the flower I’ve been looking for! “And you, Lancel.” Dahlia queried, but I could only stammer. My eyes were solely fixed on Denzel. The fact that he has it means that my rose is not the correct material! I have to get that flower! It’s the key to winning.
