Emilia Chapter 10
Emilia PeytonEmilia was glad she made the decision to not check out of the hotel because it looked like she was going to be spending a few days there. She had already packed all her belongings from the house and sent them to one of the many apartments she owned. She hadn’t bothered to furnish them before, she didn’t see the need because no one was living in them. She would move into the house but it was still empty. She would have to put it in order before she could settle in and that would take a few days. So for now, the hotel was going to be her home.She was tired and hungry. She had forgotten to eat with all the trouble going on. She was staying at the royal pavilion hotel, a well known hotel. It was owned by her father’s friend, Mr Daniel McKay. The only person she trusted in this cruel world she was forced to live in. He treated her like she was his daughter and when he heard that she was staying in his hotel, he made sure she got only the best treatment despite not being i

Emilia PeytonLiam wasn’t aware that she had moved out of her uncle’s house. She wasn’t even sure if he knew how to locate the house as she had never seen him there before but then, he was Liam Kings and according to him, he had his ways.She considered calling him but after looking at the time on her phone, she realized that it was already too late and she didn’t want to disturb him or give him something to tease her with. She would have to call him tomorrow morning.**********************************************************************************“ I’d you’re calling to cancel then my answer is no Emilia.” Liam says over the phone. She had called him first thing in the morning. She didn’t want him going to the wrong house. He didn’t sound like he was just waking up from sleep unlike her. His voice was low but steady. But then, like he said, she was jobless.“ I didn’t call to cancel. I gave you my word and I don’t intend to break it.” She replied.“ If you say so. Why did you cal

Emilia PeytonHer neck snaps towards him so fast she was sure it would cause an ache later. “ Two weeks? Are you being serious right now?” She says trying to maintain her calm. “ I am. It would be better that way, for the both of us.” He says. “ And you’re telling me this now.” She says. “ You don’t have to worry about anything. All the arrangements for the wedding will be handled by my sister, Hailey. You’ll be meeting her today. All you have to do is attend the wedding okay?” He adds. She was going to be a guest at her own wedding. The idea wasn’t so bad. After all, this wasn’t a normal wedding. Nodding in response, she turns her head away from him and gets lost in her thoughts. ************************************************************ The car pulls up at Bistro Le Cep, a popular French restaurant that only the richest in the country could afford. Liam leaves the car first and goes over to Emilia’s side to open the door. A valet approaches them and Liam hands the keys over

Emilia Peyton“ How is that possible dear. Liam did not go to Milan two years ago.” Lucia says and the entire room falls silent. Uh oh! I look at Liam, my eyes begging for help. “ Yes I did mum, you seem to have forgotten.” Liam finally says and I nod in response. “ Did you? Oh my dear, I’m so sorry. I’m becoming too forgetful these days.” Lucia says with a sad smile and her husband, Richard gives her a pat on the back. “ It’s alright, it can happen to anyone. I happen to remember because it was the day I met Liam.” I say smiling. Good gracious. Lying to someone as sweet as Lucia was hard. “ A day that changed both our lives.” Liam says looking directly at me. He was such a good actor. I feel my heart beat quicken. It felt almost real. If I didn’t know better, I would’ve thought he was being sincere. “ Would you look at that Richard. Liam finally found love, it feels unreal. Thank you so much Emilia, for coming into my son’s life.” Lucia says as she reaches out to hold my han

Emilia Peyton“ Emilia speaking. Who is this.” I said to whoever was on the other side of the call.It was barely 7 in the morning, who could be calling at this hour. I haven’t even gotten enough sleep.“ I knew it. You already forgot.” A female voice shouts over the phone. A voice that sounded too familiar.“ Hailey?” I askedWhy was she calling this early. I don’t remember giving my number to her either. Right. She’s Liam’s sister.“ Yhep. It’s Hailey alright. What are you still doing in bed. We’re going to be late.” She replied.“ Late for what?” I was still in bed, clearly not ready to wake up. What was I late for?“ Are you really asking me that. We’re supposed to go shopping for your wedding dress!!” She replied.Oh crap. She was right. I was so tired after almost fighting with Liam, I forgot all about my plans with Hailey.I was really glad she wasn’t talking formally with me. It felt really nice.“ Oh my Goodness Hailey. I’m so sorry. I totally forgot. How much time do I ha

Emilia Peyton One Week LaterPreparations for the wedding was at its peak. Reporters were at the kings mansion daily hoping to get a picture or interview from Liam and I. I still don’t know what made them think that I was staying at his house. Uncle Aaron’s house was probably flooded with reporters too. Since no one knew that I moved out of Uncle’s house, I was safe. Oh right! Liam and I gave the official announcement of the wedding at an interview three days ago and the internet has been blowing up since then. People were shocked because I and Liam were never photographed together. Most of them had their suspicions, saying it was an arranged marriage between two influential families for more power. According to Liam’s statement at the second interview, we were in love with each other and dated secretly because we didn’t want the media meddling in our affairs. Some people believed him while others didn’t. Talking about Liam, I haven’t seen him much since the family dinner with his

Emilia Peyton“ I now declare you husband and wife. You may kiss the bride.”She had totally forgotten that they would have to share a kiss today.Oh God!!!Looking at him through the veil, she could feel his eyes on hers. He was staring directly into her eyes with a look that she couldn’t point out.He takes a step forward to lift the veil off her face and her heart beat quickens. The veil was the only thing protecting her from his piercing gaze . She knew he could still see her even with the veil in front of her. The veil was transparent but it felt like a sort of shield to her.He lifts the veil off and stares at her, his eyes scanning every feature on her face before it stops at her lips. His eyes come back to look directly at her eyes before he crashes his lips on hers without warning.Shivers run through every part of her body. The feel of his lips against hers was magical. Better than whatever she had imagined. She had never kissed anyone before so she had no idea what to do an
