Tessa Dare The Bride Bet Novels & Stories

“Dad, you have exhausted all your ways to protect me my whole life. You paid for my college education to let me have a bright future. How can I possibly work as a bargirl? How can I give up on myself?” “Then, you…” Hector could not understand it. Tessa immediately sneered aggressively. “There’s still Hana Sharpe. She is now married to a rich man!”

Mom cheers as she hugs me, "my baby girl is getting married!" "You are going to find your perfect dress," Tessa tells me as she hooks her arm through mine, "you can show Leon how much of a dick he is for screwing other girls when sexy little you was across the hall." I roll my eyes before I get taken back to the dressing room. The worker asks what kind of dress I'd like, I told them to bring me the best they have. They brought back too many dresses.

Everything had changed. As I wore the wedding gown Luca had picked out for me, my cousin's child came running over with an olive branch. "Aunt Giada, Uncle Luca told me to bring this to you!" I reached out and took it, only to see a note attached. "Giada, I know you're about to become my bride, but it still feels unreal. It's as if this is all a dream—and when I wake, I'll still be the one standing on the university field, secretly watching you walk beside Carlo."

Even if she skipped the wedding today because she was being childish, you can't treat the marriage alliance between our families like a joke! "Stop the wedding right now. We'll settle this privately." I ignored them completely and handed the microphone to Haylee beside me. "Haylee, tell everyone why you're standing here today." Haylee met my eyes and smiled. Her voice was calm and clear. "I'm standing here today because Christine paid me one hundred dollars to impersonate her at this wedding."

Lillian mumbled as she opened her eyes. *************** Don did the last botton of his tuxedo with Rex behind him. "Boss, I must really say, you look so handsome in the tux." Rex complimented and Don scoffed. The door opened and Bella entered. "Woah! My brother looks so handsome in his wedding wear." Bella teased as she came up to him and Don glared at her through the mirror. "I almost didn't recognize you." She said again in a smile not minding his glare.

Nodding, Mel linked her arm with his, as they headed towards the event hall, ready to put on their best fake act. Lisa stood in front of the mirror, admiring her reflection in the red straight evening gown she had carefully chosen to catch Ethan's attention. The dress hugged her curves in all the right places, and the shawl she draped over it added an extra touch of elegance. Her heels were expensive and stylish, reflecting her impeccable taste. She applied a bold red lipstick, accentuating her full lips.

My brain scrambled as I clutched my chest “ what kind of dare ?” “ The second I saw you I already knew you were different , when I kissed you for the first time I knew I wanted you but when I fell in love with you , I knew that I wanted you to be mine and mine alone . Bella , you are the best thing that happened in my life and I can no longer imagine a life without you , I can afford to lose anything in this world but not you “ then he held up the humongous diamond ring in his finger with a confident smirk and asked even though he already knew my answer “ Bella Hamilton , I dare you to marry me , are you willing to take this dare on ?” A rush of emotions clutched my chest as tears welled in

Cade’s grip immediately tightened around my arms, it was clearly stating that he didn’t like the words which Lily used for me or the way she talked with me, because we both knew the truth, the truth that I didn’t trap Cade, but the king himself chose me as Cade’s bride and Cade did the same. No one asked for my consent in it. “My father had chosen Andrella as my bride and confirmed it, demon.”, He hissed in anger. “So, whatever you better watch your tone before talking with my bride.”, He stated firmly and I felt his anger start to change the weather, I pressed my hand against his chest to calm him down. “Prince Cade, you…” “You better send a message to him that I will turn his world upside

I raised a brow. “Half? All of New York knows! They just want to hear it from you.” “I am not doing any conference till after the wedding.” “Why? Are you worried people will know who the bride is and start to disturb her?” I looked away from Liam and pressed the switched button on the laptop in front of me. I don’t know who is better between him and my dad. Both seem worse, actually. “Hold up, don’t tell me… you are jealous that the world will find your bride beautiful and start pestering her?!” He burst into laughter and I snapped my brows together

Damon turning to leave, his voice resolute “No, Father. I’m following what I know is right. The pack will have their Luna when I find her. Until then, this conversation is over.” --- As Damon turns to leave the hall, Caleb follows close behind. The tension in the air remains thick, but Damon’s determination is unshakable. He knows that the woman in his dreams is not just a figment of his imagination. She is real, and he will stop at nothing to find her, to uncover the truth behind that fateful night, and to face the consequences of the past.
