Novel & Cerita Anti Valentine's Day Party

“And also Valentine’s Day! And it has to be perfect!” Micah raised an eyebrow. “Why?” “Because!” I gestured wildly, accidentally flinging a heart-shaped sticker at his chest. “They’ll only turn one once. And it’s their first holiday that’s fun. No scary costumes, no random fireworks—just cake and love and adorable themed outfits!” He peeled the sticker off his shirt, amused. “They’re one. They’re not going to remember any of this.” “That’s not the point!” “Then what is the point?”

"It's okay, it's not your fault. I'll just be happy when you finally get to be here with me." "Yeah?" "Yes." "Me too." Two weeks later and I got a knock on my front door. I was on the phone with Liam again, getting ready for work. It was Valentine's Day which was a themed day at the club. We could dress as Cupid and everything was going to be pink and red. It was the one of my favorites because for some reason, men loved us wearing feminine colors. I'm also sure that Kade pumped up the pheromones through the air vents.

The next few days passed in a wonderfully boring way. This week’s big activity was a normal college thing—a Valentine’s Day party at Andy’s fraternity tomorrow night. At first Leesa didn’t want to go, but Cali had talked her into it. Once Rave agreed to come along, Leesa was happy. Almost anything she did with Rave was romantic, but being with him at a Valentine’s thing would be extra special. The only problem was she had no idea what she should wear. Once again, Cali had come to the rescue. They were going shopping today at a resale clothes place on campus called Second Time’s A Charm to try to find something “valentiny” as Cali called it. Cali already had her own outfit picked out, but she

Bunny sighed as she tossed the wall art into the buggy. “What don’t you know?” Jolene asked as they came back over with a buggy half filled. “What I’m going to go for a gender reveal.” Bunny admitted. “That’s simple. Do something Valentine’s Day.” Dean said. “You can get a string pinata and the three of you pull the strings at one time.” “Yeah! Victoria makes awesome pinatas!” Dean declared. “Great. You two are in charge. Plan me a stupid gender reveal.” Jolene and Dean looked at each other and then dashed off over to the party section of the store.

Or at least close enough to plant the seed. Then both our phones buzzed at the same time. That's weird. I pulled mine out first, the screen lighting up with an invitation text. - |Formal Invitation from the Cantrell Household| You are cordially invited to a banquet at the Old Cantrell Villa this weekend to welcome the newest member of the family, Valerie Cantrell. - My blood boiled instantly. Red hot rage flooded every inch of me, burning away every thought. That bitch. That nobody. Welcoming her? Formally? “Ah!!!”

“Make sure they are acting appropriately with potential sponsors, as I’ll be rather busy tonight.” This immediately quipped my interest. What did Valerie have to do tonight? Unofficial club business? “Of course, Miss Valerie. I’ll keep my eyes peeled,” I assured her. Yeah, I’ll be on the lookout. For her. Valerie opened the ballroom doors and the party was in full swing. Men were in suits and the escort in ball gowns. Everyone was wearing masks. As soon as we stepped into the room, Valerie left my side. “Have fun tonight, Gabrielle. Remember to do what we talked about,” she repeated over her shoulder as she walked away.

The entire poolside was transformed into a stunning party venue, adorned with an array of white and red balloons, delicate light pink curtains, and cascading strings. The ambiance exuded a sense of festivity, akin to a special occasion. Behind every pair of chairs stood a collection of cherished photographs, narrating the stories of each couple. The cute decorations brought a smile to Alice's face, but her mood soured as she walked into the crowd and heard unkind remarks about it. "Ahh, what's wrong with Dad, the red heart-shaped balloon? Are we celebrating Valentine's Day or something?" Bella exclaimed, eyeing the decorations with disdain.

They will eat each other before anyone will even blink. So, it was like a wait and watch situation for others. After 15 years, war is going to happen once again. Crystal paced back and forth fuming in anger. Her eyes glared at the ticking clock on the wall. In just 2 hours the party will start and she has no idea how to avoid the situation. Everything was going great between her and Valentine until he announced how she has to walk by his side in the evening. Her ears failed to believe that he has asked her to join such a party. She didn't even have a chance to throw tantrums and angry retorts because the very next moment he fled out of mansion followed by equally upset Victor.

I accidentally found it in the forest this morning. I was planning to tell him the good news today. But now? It was time to break this five-year mate bond. …… After packing up my herbs for the day, I reached for my mate Marcus through our mindlink. "Honey, please come home early for Valentine's Day! I found something incredible!" His response came sharp and rushed: "Claire, we've got a crisis at the pack trading post. I have to deal with it!" "Where's Noah? You were supposed to pick him up from school!"

The men would slump on the couch, drinking, playing poker, and talking business, while Juliet strutted around in crop tops and tiny shorts like it was a runway. I had told him I hated those gatherings and begged him to stop going. He just brushed me off. "Margot, networking is part of my job. We talk business and make connections at those parties. Come on, we're not attached at the hip just because we're dating. "Juliet is like one of the guys. We are business partners. Even if she walked in front of me undressed, I would feel nothing." All of it was just pretty lies to keep me quiet.
