Ariana’s POVI was in a rage, he saw me as nothing but a gold digger and considered me like Mother after all he claimed to have dug into her past life before she was married to his father so that means he must have known most of me life before now and that of her mother.But what mattered was what he thought about me, what he saw in me, and what he knew, I had no worth to him and he saw me as a gold digger who could lie my way into any condition, and I was trying to rip him off. I have never felt so stupid and embarrassed now in his presence and how he saw me I felt stupid.“And I should be asking you if you knew of me the night we met, but I guess not since I was the one who came to you,” he muttered and I looked at him in anger.“I am done, I have been used, abused, neglected, insulted, and disrespected by you, but from now on, I am done,” I declared without waiting for his words. I scrambled out of the car, rain pelting down on my back, drenching me within seconds. As I bolted tow
“I think I should be going to bed, I have to be ready for tomorrow” I voice out in an attempt to dismiss my mother.“why? You don't want to hear what I have to say now huh?” she said as she glanced at me.“That's your business mum, I have tomorrow and the rest of my life to worry about, a mess you put me in,” I commented and she rolled her eyes at me.“You don't get to dismiss your mother, I leave when want to,” she refused and I took off my towel as I put on my nightwear and got into bed making sure to turn off the night light.“Aren't you going to ask me, what happened?” she asked and I rolled my eyes.“It doesn’t matter, I am getting married tomorrow and I Need my rest,” I chipped rudely at her as I covered my sheet.“Now you're so proud Of getting married, you're not going to jump at the opportunity of leaving are you, seems like you got comfortable,” she responded and I got up from the bed as I faced her.I sincerely do not know what she wants from me at this point I just wanted
As the three women walked into my room, I couldn't help but notice Sabrina's expression. She seemed quite displeased to be here. I could tell it was her mother who had forced her to be here against her will. Before I could say a word, Marian approached me excitedly and sat next to me."I can see you are exhausted," Marian said with concern, observing me closely. "You don't seem like you had any sleep last night," she said with a frown on her face.I nodded in agreement, feeling drained. "Yeah, I had a bad dream about... never mind," I lied with a smile on my face, I knew I had a rough night that I didn't want to think about.Sabrina interjected, giggling. " She probably dreamed about Lucas cutting her into two pieces tonight !"I could see a smirk forming on her face as the words left her lips.Marian shot Sabrina a look of annoyance. "Sabrina, shut up!" She said sharply, glaring at her daughter and I rolled my eyes, I didn't have the strength today to deal with Sabrina.Ava, who had b
As I watched them bring in the gown on a mannequin, it was a breathtaking sight. The dress was beautiful and elegant, adorned with crystals that shimmered under the soft light of the room. The neckline was embellished with delicate diamonds, adding a touch of luxury to the whole ensemble. It wasn't a ball gown but a form-fitting dress designed to accentuate my curves, and I instantly fell in love with it. The lace detail on the sleeves added a timeless elegance that I couldn't resist."How do you see it, Ariana?" Ava asked, turning to meet my gaze as she watched my expression.“I….i….I wasn't expecting it to be so elegant, thank you so much,” I whispered and I could see a little tear in her eyes, the woman had gotten me a wedding dress which I would say was weird, why did she have to it wasn't like it was her wedding and I could tell the wedding dress cost a fortune, she suddenly appeared in my life and now she takes responsibility of everything and most especially my dress and she
That declaration was permanent and I would make sure it remains that way, I wanted nothing to do with Damien from now on and the child will belong to Lucas and I am happy it does.Fuck Damien and all he stands for and represents I regret ever meeting him and taking everything about me and opening you to him and now he sees me as nothing he can trust and something not worth shit to him.“ so now you are just going to accept Lucas, Freya asked while throwing up her hands with a look of surprise on her face.I was done crying and wailing over him. and I wanted nothing to do with Unimas from now on, I will accept Lucas and move on with him as Demond is nothing to me and I want nothing from him now.“Yes, I will. accept Lucas, what would you have me do ?” I yelled at her angrily, I didn't mean to it just came out and I chilled down as soon as those words left my lips I realized that I stepped past my line by yelling at her, I could the stress was getting to me and I wanted more than anythin
Freya's eyes bore into me with a mixture of anger and concern toward me.we sat just moments before I was to walk down the aisle. We had arrived at the church and I was currently waiting for someone to come and get me from the car.I could see that her expression was tense, and I could sense the weight of unspoken thoughts hanging heavily between us. I knew she had something to say and maybe she was scared To say it but I wanted to ease the tension between us, as I wasn’t feeling too comfortable."Freya, I know you're upset," I began, adjusting the veil that partially obscured my view. "But this is my day. Let's not dwell on this now." I pleaded to her and I knew she was upset about Damien, the weddings and maybe Lucas, I couldn’t tell but the need to ease the tension was great and I just had to do itShe scoffed, her irritation palpable. "You're playing with fire, Ariana. And it's not just about Damien." She blurted out as she looked me in the eyes and said the words to my face, I kn
Brian stood still as I left him halfway to the aisle and walked down to Lucas on my own, the murmurs increased as Brian was left standing, the shock was evident on his face.As soon as I stood before Lucas, I gently placed my hands into his. I have never felt so excited as I felt like blood pumping through my veins because of the actions I had just done. The church was in an uproar as Brian recovered from the shock and walked out of the church.“What the fuck are you playing at,” Lucas growled slowly as he glared at me.“I just expressed my joy of leaving that family, that's all, I didn’t know it would shock him as much as it did, forgive me,” I said and Lucas' eyes narrowed at me, He didn’t say a word.The ceremony began, but my mind raced with what was going to happen now I had told Brian. I looked into Lucas' eyes as he paid attention to mine.The Priest asks us to recite our vows.Lucas recited his vows, his voice strained, he showed no reluctance."I promise to love and cherish
“What did you say,” she responded as she turned to look at me with raised eyebrows. I knew she was pretending not to know what was going on, and somehow it pissed me off when she feign ignorance.“You know what I am talking about,” I spitted out but my voice came out harsher than I expected. The maids around me gasped in horror as they glanced between us, scared of why I would talk like that. I knew Maria was a woman who commanded respect wherever she went, she was the mother to the mafia boss, one of the most powerful men the world has ever seen and I was her wife.“Leave us” she ordered as she smiled at the maids. One of the things that scared me about her was the way she smiled while she was angry, she always kept a calm face as she spoke and even her voice sent a shiver up my spine.Without any words, everyone I knew in the room dropped whatever they were doing as they left immediately with hasty steps toward the door. I was already stripped to my underwear as I stopped, I looked
