The shock on their faces was warranted I mean, their older sister was getting married out of nowhere in two days at most and was just informing them. Everything about that just seemed wrong.Christie was the first to speak. "What do you mean?! She screamed."Who are you getting married to and why are we just hearing about this?" James asked.I wish I could tell them everything but doing that would break them. The reason I was doing this, the possibility that I might leave them soon. They couldn't handle it. I hit my chest lightly as I felt the pain intensify, it wasn't anything I couldn't handle but it still hurt. Despite all these thoughts and what I was feeling, I put on a smile. I had to protect them. I must."I'm really sorry you guys had to find out like this and so close to the wedding. Well the rumors are true, Byron and I are together and we are getting married." I gave them the most cheerful expression I could muster.Christie suddenly let out a squeal. "Oh my, I knew it. Di

The wedding was nearer and I was starting to think twice about my decision. Her luggages were in my house already and it suddenly seemed too real. All my thoughts were swept away by the loud music and alcohol from Abel's party.We were returning home at two in the morning after a wild party which was my bachelor's night.I had called my driver as neither of us were in the right state to drive. I was quite drunk. I didn't think Abel was as drunk as I was since he had a high alcohol tolerance honed by years of partying. Maybe he was, with Abel one could barely tell the difference."Fine, I admit it. I was wrong for looking down on you, you can throw a party." I gave Abel a lopsided smile."Yeah, it was a success!" He shot a punch up in the air hitting the roof of the car. He cried out in pain and proceeded to cradle his hand.He rested his head on my shoulder with a grin on his face. "Byron, I'm quite goodlooking, right?"I nodded agreeing with him, my eyelids getting heavy. "Yeah you a

"You'd never guess what happened!" Kayla said, looking grim.I rushed over to her. "Are you fine? What happened?""On my way, I mistakenly crossed a red light and the cops caught me.""Is that why you're angry?" I asked, ushering her towards the couch."Yes. I couldn't be here earlier."She's so cute at times."It's fine. Byron came along and he has been a great help.""Byron?" She asked, finally raising her head and noticing Byron. "Mr Bladell, how do you do?" She asked."Sorry I didn't notice you earlier." The smile had come back to her face."It's fine. I should get going." Byron said, getting ready to leave."You should. The groom is not supposed to see the bride before the wedding." She teased, though I could tell how grateful she was that he had come when he did.Byron smirked. "I don't think that counts in our situation." I glanced at Kay and there was a slight frown on her face, probably remembering that I wasn't marrying for love."I mean, we've been together the whole week,

The long awaited day finally arrived. I was home, listening to Abel talk about how happy he was for Lilian and I.He also seemed to have taken a liking to her.I had my maid come in yesterday to clean up everywhere and ready everything for Lilian's arrival.At half past seven, I began to dress up. When we were done, the driver took us to the venue.It was a private beach in Toronto. We had only invited family, a few friends, some business associates and a few selected reporters.The event planner did her job well as I could hear people appreciating what she did.As I waited for my family to arrive with Lilian, I went round to greet the guests.**"Byron, they are here." Abel whispered in my ear. We were wearing similar tuxedos but I looked better in it. I straightened up and went to wait at the altar.The wedding procession began and then I saw her.She looked like an angel. Her face had a certain glow to it and the dress fit her perfectly. Her red hair was braided intricately into a

Kissing Byron was a decision I made after careful consideration. We were playing the part of a loving couple, it would be weird if we didn't kiss and therefore ruining our previous performance. I had to prep myself expecting Byron to take the initiative but he stared at me helplessly. I had to take matters into my own hands when he didn't move.If I was asked how it was sharing a kiss with Byron in front of all those people, I honestly don't remember. I was too busy panicking about the kiss to feel anything. Ever since I kissed Byron, my heart had been sent into an overdrive. It was racing manically and I couldn't tell if it was my body's reaction to him or a symptom of my heart disease.Byron helped me into the car. My heart didn't seem to be calming down soon. It definitely was a symptom."Are you okay?" I heard Byron ask. He sounded so far away."Yes." I replied, looking out the window in an attempt to hide my tears. My hands started trembling."Are you sure?" He asked again."Yes

"I'll show you to your room." I said. She nodded in reply, looking around.I didn't want a repeat of what happened to her this afternoon since we were alone so I smiled at her to ease the tension in the room.She smiled back at me."You have a nice home." She said."Thanks. It's yours now." She didn't say anything and just rolled the ring around her finger."It's this way." I said, leading her up the stairs. I had given her the room at the far end of the corridor, as far away from mine as possible. "You can customize it to your liking.""It's beautiful." She gasped. She went in and drew apart the curtains. She turned to me, her eyes shining. "Thank you Byron.""It's nothing. Dad bought us tickets to the Maldives for our honeymoon." I watched for her reaction, she tried to control her expression but she couldn't stop the furrow of her eyebrows."Don't take it the wrong way, you can just take the trip as a vacation." I informed her. Ever since I saw her cry coupled with her session in

I slumped on the bed, my hair still slightly wet from the shower. I stared at the ceiling, the intricate hexagons that designed it. This was going to be the sight I wake up to every morning now.Vacation in the Maldives. I was so busy trying to balance life and trying not to fall in the red, a vacation was a huge expense that I didn't dare think about. At most on weekends, I'll treat my siblings to ice cream. I was going to a tropical island.After tossing and turning though I was quite tired I couldn't find sleep. It was probably because I was in a new place. I sat up, might as well pack for tomorrow. I opened the door to my closet still not understanding why I needed a separate room for my clothes.It wasn't that big but had a little walking space. With the different drawers, compartments and hangers. My clothes were neatly arranged while some of them were hanged up by colour. I smiled that was Kayla's doing no doubt. I thought about what to pack as I looked through my clothes when

Although I made my way to the room as quickly as I could, Regina was already asleep when I got there. Quietly, I went to her side careful not to wake her up as she was a light sleeper.In my attempt to be quiet, I almost knocked over a flower vase. I looked back at her and saw that she didn't stir and heaved a sigh of relief. She must have been really tired from the flight.I sat by her side watching her serene face. Regina was a born seductress. From her gaze to the tilt of her head, the smile on her face and every spring in her step. Every movement she made even unconsciously, played with the hearts of men, like she was born to dominate. That's what set her apart from her. Now that her cat-like gray eyes were hidden behind her eyelids, she exuded a kind of innocence that was impossible to see if she was awake.When I was done admiring her expression, I dropped a kiss on her forehead and laid beside her. I closed my eyes in an attempt to calm down but the scene of Lilian being sho
