I throw bread crumbs to the Pidgeon, hearing the flapping of their wings put a smile on my face, this is the one thing that makes me happy. But then again, this is the place, Jesse and I had our first conversations, this is the place he told me he wanted to get to know me. Tear gather, no, I shouldn't be like this. "Hey, they seem to be a lot today". I hear Luther say with an exciting tone.Hearing his voice suddenly brought some sort of comfort "Are you okay?". " Of course I am, I'm just happy to be here". I force a smile "Well, that's great, I'm happy if you're happy". As soon as we were done, we go back to the house " What a day today ". Luther said assisting me on the couch " Yea, apart from Benita I think it was quite okay". I hear him sigh "You know, what Benita said wasn't wrong, it's gonna be hard taking your father's businesses away from him, he has everyone on his side". " I know, we need to get married as soon as possible". I hear him gasp "What? what is it?".

I hear him put down a tray on my bed ." By the way, this is Amanda, she's going to be your new maid". "Good morning miss". I stretch my hand towards the direction I hear her voice " Good morning, how do you do?". She shakes my hand nervously "I'm okay, a bit nervous". " I can tell". We both giggle "there's nothing to be nervous about, I hope we get along". " Me too" I hear Luther clap his hand "Alright then, I myself hope we all get along, I will leave you too now". Luther leaves the room leaving just me and Amanda. "You are about to have your bath yah?". She asked " Yes, I am". "Do you need any assistance?". I shake my head "No I don't, but you can pick out an outfit for me ". " Okay, then I will". I take off my bathrobe and go to the shower. So far Amanda doesn't seem all that bad, she has a ple

LUTHER'S POV The video was everywhere, video of our engagement was going crazy on the internet. I smile looking at my phone, this is exactly the kind of attention we needed. "Hey, Luther". I hear Gary call, I was waiting for him in a dark alleyway "So, did you get them?". He nods "Yup, they are still rookies but they do have a clean background". " Good then, it's about time we had guards around her, now that the public is aware of her situation ". "True, but why do you draw attention from them then? if it's risky why make everything public?". " let's say the best way to catch a mouse is simply putting a piece of cheese in an open room, what he doesn't know is the cat is just around the corner". "Wow, you are terrible at this".I smack the back of his head " ouch!" he whines "You deserved it, I would like them to resume as soon as possible, thank you for your help". He grinds "What are friends for? I do owe you big time" "Yea you do, don't worry I will save you a special seat

LUTHER'S POV I play my music using BT speaker and I turn up the music all the way I enter my shower having my mini-concert. As soon as I was done, I turn off the music. "Shit, I forgot to bring a towel with me" I sigh "good thing I stay alone". I come out of the bathroom, I clean my foot on my rug, as soon as I enter the room I hear my door shut, I see Violet trying to pull her robe out of the door, I was about taking a step back when she suddenly loses her balance Without thinking I rush towards her and we both end on the floor, luckily she was on top of me. I feel the warmth of her bosom on my bare chest, I feel my heart beating fast. I suddenly feel her hand on my crotch, damn what is she doing?, she tightens her grip, I take in a deep breath trying to control myself, she suddenly let's go when she figures out what she was holding " I'm sorry".We separate from each other, she holds her robe together with her hands. I stutter "What-what are yo-ou doing here?". "I-i just". She

Amanda helps me with my dress, I had a red sleeveless fitted dress on,she does my makeup and helps me put on my jewellery. The jewellery I had on were diamonds, they were my mums. my father gave them to me as my wedding gift, it was the jewellery he gave her when he proposed to her, when he made his first million. I never wore them, I always just touched them to admire them, I never took them to the house with me, I left them with my father, and I'm glad I did, these are way too precious. "All done". Amanda said excitedly "How do I look?". I turn to the guards Kat replies "You look lovely". Alvin follows "Beautiful ma'am". Then Leo responds "Stunning". I let out a sigh "Good then, thank you". I wonder what it feels like to look at one's reflection, be satisfied by the way you look, and not just count on the words of people. The doors burst open " Are you ready?". It was Luther, I nod "Let's go then". He takes my hand, I wear a genuine smile. "Be sure your eyes are all on Viole

She awkwardly starts stretching Jesse clears his throat to get our attention "I apologize on my wife's behalf, congratulations on your engagement". I noticed Violet looked lost in thoughts "Thank you". I shake his hand, even though it wasn't stretched out "Please, enjoy the rest of the evening". I take Violet away from their presence, Leo rushes towards us "Take Violet to her room, I think she has had enough for tonight, I'll take care of the rest". He bows "Okay sir". "Will you be okay?, I can stay a little bit longer, you can't possibly handle all the guests by yourself". She said concerned I place my hand on her shoulder, I smile at her "It's alright, you get some rest okay?". "Okay then, don't stress yourself, goodnight". I watch herself and Leo leave. I instantly frown, those bastards, how could they possibly put her in a spot like that. Someone taps me o

"Is good to see you're doing okay Violet". The lawyer, Mr Cameron said with a cheerful tone in his voice, I'm sited in his office, the place has an old newspaper kind of smell, and that of ink as well. I wore a black dress on red bottom heels, I even have a black hat on, considering the occasions today black was the best choice. "I'm sorry his taking long, he should be here by-". The door suddenly burst open " Jesse, nice to finally have you here". He takes the seat on my left "Sorry I'm late, I have better things to do". The perfume he has on is sharp, it's messing with my nostrils, Jesse knows how sensitive my nose is, could he have done it on purpose?. I bring out a handkerchief from my bag "Well, I haven't been waiting that long, excuse me". I blow my nose.

LUTHER'S POV My mum constantly glares at us, Violet and I were sited directly opposite of her in the living room, I gulp "Mother, can we get your blessing now?" I feel cold sweat on my forehead, my legs felt cramped "No". She replies rather blunt. " Please?". I ask nervously. "No". Well begging doesn't do anything " Well fine, like I need your blessing, Violet and I will just get married without it". I get on my feet "come on Violet we are leaving". I take her hand and forcefully drag her " Stop!". My mum yells before we could walk out of the door, I smirk a little "let's talk about it". I knew this would work, my mum can't stand the idea of me leaving again. Violet and I go back to our position."Can I ask you one thing?". " Of course mother". "Do you love each other?". Violet turns to me, I give her a look and sigh "I-I do".
