Soon, Jay would introduce another woman into his life, into mine, and everything would change. Even if I could forget somehow the pain of the past, I could never eliminate the memory of the day when my world shattered—the day I met Samantha.What should have been a triumphant moment was now just my public embarrassment.On the day people from all over were gathered to celebrate my and Jay's engagement, he had walked in with another woman and, beaming pride in his smile, announced that he had found his mate. The shock had sucked the air out of my lungs. How could I have loved such a wicked man?His smile lingered in my mind. A man who never smiled shone as if it was the most wondrous instance of his life, while I—who had been introduced a moment before as his fiancée—was cast aside and humiliated. A defining moment in my life was reduced to sham
On the day of my engagement to Jay, a blue dress was what I wore.It was simple and elegant, the kind of prettiness that did not ask for attention. Delicate white beads sewn carefully along the bodice caught the light each time I moved, shimmering like quiet stars. I left my makeup light and understated; if there was one thing I knew with absolute surety, it was that my face ever needed excess to draw in people's eyes.“Your dress…” Jay’s mouth parted slightly, the reaction so obvious that I almost laughed.“Isn’t it beautiful?” I asked, forcing the smile that would naturally outline my lips.Jay stood before me in his finest attire of royalty, down to every minute detail. His hair was perfectly placed, with each strand in its specified position. His hands were clasped behind his back, his shoulders squared, and his chest slightly puffed out in that particular stance that spoke volumes about authority and the desire for it. A subtle, wily smile curled his lips, one that spoke volumes
Chapter 8: The DressIn my room, I fixed on my reflection in the mirror. Eyes that are now hollow with a redness, skin that is pale, a head that aches, but a mind that aches even more. The knowledge of the past and the future weighs on me. I didn't have enough money to marry Jay, but I also lacked the power to call off the engagement on my own terms, without his agreement. The only way for me to get out of this situation would be for my father to intervene, but I had sworn he would stay out of this.“No, this won’t do,” I muttered to myself.Now, my thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. "Miss Melody?" Mary called softly. "Your designer is here for the final dress fitting." “Send her in,” I said quietly. “Prepare coffee, as well as the warm cheese bread. This means she rose before dawn, skipping breakfast, in order to arrive on time.”Mary excused herself to make arrangements, but I drummed my fingers in rhythm on the back of a nearby chair. Jay Merlot is one of the strong
“Mels…,” Jay began, but he spoke low and warningly, and I intervened before he said anything more.“Jay, we will not be good for each other,” I insisted firmly, forcing my words past my fear.His jaw clenched, his muscles ticking, and his dark eyes narrowed, knotting my stomach. But I forced myself onward, refusing to turn back. A sense of desperation clawed at my throat.“If you don’t want to cancel the engagement party, we can at least postpone it. Just for a month….”“No.His words cut through the air—cold, definitive, unshaken.My pulse raced erratically. “Or even a week!” My voice trembled, and I maintained it against my will. A postponement would not be a bad thing. Samantha would be arriving soon, as she always had, and it would provide us with a reason for an easy termination.But Jay didn’t move. Didn’t soften. Didn’t even blink.“I won't do that,” he growled.He pushed back his chair and, with a swift movement, pulled it closer so that he was seated directly in front of me.
