25 - Nathan

When the photographer tells us she has all that she needs Aurora pulls away from me quickly not making eye contact. Maybe the moment I thought we shared was just for me. She focuses on the photographers camera when she speaks next. “How do we want to do this, because I’m sure your grandfather is going to have a lot to say and so will Mia’s mother.” She grimaces, finally looking up at me. “I know it was risky to make her my bridesmaid, but right now she needs to be protected from all of this. She needs to be near me until it all blows over.”

“Wait, she’s here?! Now you know someone is going to try and force her and I to marry right?” I run my fingers through my hair as my heart drops again and this time it isn’t a good feeling. My grandfather with try and force the situation to his benefit, which is Mia as my wife. He wants to control her, that much is a given with this situation.

“I thought you had a mind of your own and could choose for yourself?” She bites back, she’s eas

  • The Last Minute Bride   This story is on Pause until December 2025

    Thank you to all who have read this story with me. I apologize for leaving it unfinished. It will be completed, it's just on pause for a little while. I will pick up the laptop again and give Nathan and Aurora the completion they deseve.This story concept was approved at the same time a request for an extension on another series I have going was made. I thought I could handle writing both, but putting out quality work has proven more difficult than I thought. I am almost done with my extension, and then I will be right back here.

  • The Last Minute Bride   46 - Nathan

    46 - NathanThis firecracker of a woman makes my head spin. Last week at a simple dinner she had a full blown panic attack after one question from a reporter. Albeit, the woman shouldn’t have been anywhere near us and Roman, Theo and Jessie all got an earful after I saw her safely home and had my own freak out. Now she has a fire in her eyes like I dared her to walk through the gates of hell and she accepted. I have been watching her all week with Joel and Lana. She’s been working hard on the Benedict company. That is where she is most comfortable, at the head of a project that needs major work. She wasn’t lying when she said she wanted to take it over and make it thrive for Amelia. It’s been seven days and she has plans, that’s for sure. She has been sending everything through Lana to me. That should have made me happy, because that is protocol for everyone in the office. Lana is the gatekeeper. But, Aurora is my wife, the barrier doesn’t apply to her, and I was hoping she would use

  • The Last Minute Bride   45 - Aurora

    45 - AuroraI let Lauren do her thing. She is meticulous in her work, even though we were doing the same dance a week ago. She’s going to know my body better than I do soon. She brought three different styles of heels and had me try each of them on to decide comfort level and look. Once she is satisfied, she starts pulling and pinning the fabric, muttering to herself. When I am confident she doesn’t want my opinion, I start on my mental checklist.This gala is a benefit for a special care wing at the local hospital. They specialize in long term care for many types of terminal patients and have become the go-to place for patients who are undergoing experimental treatments when nothing else has worked for them. The facility is beautiful, but operates mostly on donor funds due to the nature of the treatments and they need to expand to provide more care. Tonight’s benefit is to fund a children’s wing. I wish Nathan would have told me this information himself, but that would require him

  • The Last Minute Bride   44 - Aurora

    44 - AuroraTo the best of his ability, Nathan avoids me for the rest of the week and I can’t decide if I appreciate the distance or am annoyed by it. He did his best to get me through my panic attack, but it looked like he was in pain as he literally fled from my room, like he had had his fill of emotional woman and is now afraid of coming near me for too long. He’s a walking contradiction. He spends as little time alone with me as possible, but he also won’t let Jessie and the guys drive me to work, he insists on driving me, but doesn’t talk to me. He’s always a room away. If I can’t see him I can hear him and I swear I can feel him near. Lana has been great, but her day is packed with meetings and research so I only see her in small snippets of time. She reminds me of me, constantly moving and hands on the pulse of everything. She lets everyone do their job, but she checks everything herself just in case. I thought her subordinates might not like it. I know I always got resistance

  • The Last Minute Bride   43 - Nathan

    43 - NathanThis woman looks at me for a brief second then down at her lap and for the first time I see an innocent girl, not the confident businesswoman I’m used to. Wherever her mind went as we left Max’s restaurant, it’s taking time for her to recover. She seems exhausted and over this whole situation. I get the feeling she isn’t this vulnerable in front of anyone and she isn’t sure how to act in front of me, but she also can’t hold it together anymore. I have never wanted to protect anyone more than I want to protect her. She chose me, when she didn’t know who I was. She chose me again, and she didn’t even know it was me. She keeps entering my life. I have to take that as a sign that she is meant to be here…with me, and I have to keep her here at all costs.“Thanks for helping me out today. I’m usually better than that. I’m sorry if I embarassed you.” She whispers to her lap and I really, really want to punch her ex. I have no idea what he did or said, but whatever it was behind cl

  • The Last Minute Bride   42 - Aurora

    42 - AuroraThe car stops. I don’t remember the turnoff. Or the driveway. Or the gates opening. I only realize we’ve arrived when the door opens and Nathan’s standing there, his hand outstretched. He looks so angry though, I don’t take it. I climb out on my own. I hear him huff his annoyance. We walk up the front steps like strangers—like ghosts of two people who could’ve been something softer. He opens the door and holds it without looking at me. I step inside.He closes the door, clicks the lock.The foyer lights are low, casting golden shadows across the marble. My mind is starting to settle back into normal. I haven’t had panic hit me like that in a long time. I know I should say something. Anything. Apologize? Explain? Thank him? I can’t remember how words work. I turn to silently follow him to the stairs that lead to our hallway.“I didn’t mean it,” I say, but my voice still shakes. “I just… I panicked. I thought maybe this wasn’t real.”He stops at the base of the stairs, whitek
