ADRAIN'S POV:

It was Sunday morning, I went to the office to try and get my present predicament out of my mind. I really don't want to get married. How could my parents do such a thing to me after all I have been through.

I was busy typing furiously on my computer when dad called my cell phone. I was really exhausted due to lack of sleep. After friday's dinner, I barely went to my penthouse. I was just working, trying to get my mind off things. My phone rang again. For fuck sake, what does he want now? For me to give up my life?

"Hello" I answered trying my best to let him know I wasn't interested in anything he wanted to say. Knowing my dad, he's as stubborn as I am

"We'll be having dinner with the Harrison's tonight. Be here on time" he hung up the phone. He was angry at me but, so was I. I don't want any of this.

I continued with my work when my door burst open. Nicole Kirby walked in looking so sexy as always in her short mini dress. Nicole and I were fuck buddies. We had casual sex with no strings attached, she sometimes accompany me to dinner parties and all that. She really knows how to please a man. I wonder what she was doing here I didn't ask for her.

"Hi handsome" she said coming around my chair to massage my shoulders. Nicolle has always wanted a serious relationship between us but, she knows it will never happen

"What are you doing here Nicolle? I will call you if I need you" I said dismissively without looking up from the files I started reading. She snatched the files from my hands which made me stand up angrily

"I'm not in the mood for your childish drama right now, give me the goddamn files"

"I can put you in the mood" she said grabbing my groin while bitting her lip trying to look sexy. Seriously, what did I even see in her? She isn't even my type. Well she's amazing in bed my subconscious said. I yanked her hand away that was already busy stroking me and took the files from her.

"I said I'll call you when I need you, now leave" she stormed off looking upset. Well who cares

I went home to prepare for dinner with my 'soon to be wife'. I had to do this in order to keep my company. I quickly put on my black tux, with a white button down shirt underneath, combed my hair and went out of my apartment. I went into my white Lamborghini car and drove off to the address mom sent me.

HARMONY'S POV:

I stared at Megan as she lay different clothes on my bed. I'm so sleepy. Yesterday was so tiring and now Meg has come to get me ready. I know her this will probably take the whole day. She pushed me into bathroom. I didn't want to start her torture which she refers to as make over so, I decided to have a bubble bath. It's been long I had one.

***After few minutes ***

My bedroom was already filled with different outfits.

"Meg, what's the need for all this? I already have clothes" I said drying my hair

"You mom gave me permission to change your wardrobe so you start looking like someone from this century." She dragged me to the dressing mirror and ordered me to sit. Who would have believed that she was bawling her eyes out yesterday. If this makes her happy and forget her pain even for a little while, I'm willing to do it.

"Okay" she looked at me with her mouth open.

"What?, you are not going to put up a fight? I know how much you hate playing dress up" she seemed skeptical

"Have already decided to go wherever the wind takes me. Maybe this is what my future holds for me, why fight it?" I said shrugging

"Who are you and what have you done to my bffae" I just rolled my eyes smiling at myself. I sat down and let her work her magic on me. After about 8hours she was finally done.

I was dressed in a knee length black cocktail dress, with transparent shoulders embedded with silver crystals as well as the waist. I paired the outfit with black heels. As for my make-up, she did light make-up on me which insisted of foundation, nude eyeshadows and nude matte lipstick. I was amazed by how I look, I couldn't believe I was the one when I stared at my own reflection.

"You look hot B" Meg said squealing like a teenager. Well she was right, I never knew I had it in me to pull this dress off.

"Thanks Meg, for your help. I might take you up on your offer to help change my dress style" I said putting my phone, keys and other essentials inside my bag.

"Girlllll I love this spontaneous side of yours. Adrain's not going to know what hit him" we both laughed at her remark. I looked at the time and it was just 5pm. I decided to leave now knowing my mom she would want to prepare all the dinner by herself so, I decided to go on time so I can help.

"Meg, you're sure you'll be fine" she knew I was referring to Ken. She just smiled at me

"I'll be fine B. Now go and make momma proud." I laughed and hurriedly went into my baby Mark and drove to my parents house.

***AT THE HARRISON'S MANSION***

I arrived home really nervous. I rang the doorbell and was instantly wrapped in a tight hug from mom.

"Wow Harms, you clean up nicely. This must be Megan's doing" she teased me. I just rolled my eyes and followed her into the living room where Mr and Mrs Stone where sitting.

"Good evening sir, ma'am" I said feeling nervous. What if they don't like me I thought. I was immediately engulfed in a bone crushing hug from Mrs Stone.

"Oh!! Martha, she's more beautiful in person"

"indeed she is" Mr and Mrs Stone complimented me

"Thank you sir, ma'am" I said blushing a little.

"You can tell me Taylor dear" she smiled warmly.

"And am sure you know better than calling me Mr Stone" uncle Desmond said. He has been my favorite uncle although I never really knew much about his family but, now I'm worried about how to act in front of him as my 'soon-to-be father inlaw'

"Ok" I smiled showing my dentition. "Dinner's ready" mom yelled from the kitchen where dad was helping her with the food

"Hi dad" I kissed him on the cheek. "Wow Harms, you look beautiful dear".

Seriously, was my dressing that bad? We all sat down and was having a conversation when he walked in

"Holy shit" I thought
