2024-10-29 19:42:56"Pick someone. Anyone..." Hope suggested and Amelia simply shook her head when Hope put the glass back to the bar counter and walked to the two men standing and talking.
"If Stig was with you, why didn't you told me this? Amelia and he could have danced together," Hope walked to Kristopher and with a smile on her face, that was the proof she was meeting the men the first time so that Amelia won't have any doubt on them.
"I'm not Stig," replied Christian casually and Hope immediately replied, "Oh, sure you are not. If he is not Spikes then you are not Stig."
He just saw her with astonishment.
How does she know that he is not Stig and Kristopher is not Spikes?
Then he turned around to give a very evil look to his best friend who was admiring the beauty, he immediately understood that it was Spikes doing.
Kristopher offered her a hand and both of them walked to the dancefloor to have a dance.
The soft music reminded Christian of the time when h

"You're quite a good company for dance," Christian said to Hope who was dancing with him when she took one quick look towards Kristopher and Amelia."Since when are you engaged?" she asked and he was quiet for a second, then said, "I and Blair know each other since forever. And our families wanted us to get married.""So when why are you playing with Amelia? If not serious and you can't marry her. Are you doing this for fun?"she asked impassively, a hint of anger in her tone."Oops... I'm sorry," Amelia quickly apologized hesitantly when she accidentally touched his arm.Kristopher knew that the girl was so nervous around him. Only if she knew that he is her friend, Kristopher... only then she won't shut up around him.He preferred to stay quiet because she would hear his voice. And oh boy, what an intelligent woman she is.After the party was being ended without any entertaining thing happened when Christian and Kristopher decided to

"How are you, mother? How's everything? Do you know where am I?" Amelia said in excitement.Hope gave a warm smile watching the love between a mother and a daughter.Her mother never tried to find out about her, neither she talked to her. Life can be cruel sometimes, isn't it?She wiped her tears quickly and said, "I'm gonna get something to eat.""That was my best friend, Hope. She took me to Bulgaria for a vacation. I wish I could take you with me... but you don't worry, mother. One day I'm going to finish your pain..." she smiled while crying."Alright listen to me now... save this number and whenever you want to talk to me, just give Hope a call," Amelia was the only person talking because her mother could not speak, she was just weeping while listening to her only daughter."What is she doing? Why is she crying?" Christian asked worried and Hope replied, "Jeez, she's talking to her mother."Kristopher and Christian from a distance were

"But Blair..." Stacey, the old lady was interrupted by the fashion diva who said, "Grandma... I've got everything sorted. And now that I've found him, I'm going after him."With that, she kissed the cheeks of the old grandmother and turned to leave."Oh, and if my parents come... please tell them that I and Christian are on pre-engagement trip. Alright?" she paused and turned to say, then again turned to leave the villa.While going out she was mumbling something but Stacey couldn't hear her."Piero, I hope this won't create a fuss between them," Stacey inhaled deeply as she walked to the sofa chair."Madam, we have found where Mr and Mrs Valentino are..." Piero informed politely when it diverted the attention of Stacey as she asked, "Oh yeah? Do you have the phone number?" and the loyal servant gave a nod."Hello? What do you want? We are in the middle of something..." as the speaker was on and when the other person attended the call, the f

"What's upsetting you?" Kristopher asked his best friend who was lost in deep thoughts."Something strange happened today when I and Blair were having sex..." he said then was quiet for a second then continued, "Something that has never happened before, Kris.""Every time I closed my eyes, I kept on seeing Amelia's face and when I opened my eyes it was her instead of Blair," he added inhaling deeply."I-..." as Kris begins to speak, Chris interrupted by saying, "You know, you once told me that I'll end myself up in a mess. I did exactly what you said...""There's still time, brother. You can do this. She doesn't even know who you are," Kris suggested his best friend with a worried expression on his face."We are grown-ass men... together we can do it," he gave him an assuring look."Kristopher, I can run away from her life, I can even not meet her again but what about this beating organ in my chest? What about it, huh? Can it let me live in peace?
Black Lace 45. ENGAGEMENT?
"Sir... Madam... sorry to disturb you but some people wants to meet you..." both Blair and Christian exchanged unaware looks when a few people, walked to them, happy faces.Blair and Christian stood up shockingly... they were none other than."Mom... Dad..." both of them spoke together, astonished looks on their faces."Hello, love birds..." the four of them spoke at the same time with a pleasant tone.There they were... Christian's parents... as soon as he saw them... it was like ages.He was seeing them after almost six months.Christian was so attached to his parents and he was the only son of them.He, without saying anything, strode to them for a hug."Oh, how are you, my son?" his mother gave him a tight hug, roaming a hand on his perfectly spiked hair which was now ruined by her hand.Then, his father caressed his shoulders and his attention got diverted from his mother to his father and he also hugged him."Mom, Dad

That is exactly what he was fearing of... Now, what?He gave Kristopher a weird look to which he returned it."Oh, engagement... I'm excited," Blair adjusted herself on the sofa chair as she crossed a leg over another.There was everyone present there... the grandparents... the parents, the in-laws, the bride and also the groom."Now, where are you going to run away?" Stacey whispered to Christian who blinked his eyes twice.She knew him more than his parents... she knew he deliberately ran away just to escape the engagement.Now, if he can't stay there to have the engagement... the engagement can come to him...He rolled his eyes and after the discussion when all of them went to their respective rooms to have a rest... Christian excused Blair to say that he will be talking to his grandmother for a few minutes.Blair kissed him goodnight and went straight to bed."Grandma..." Christian knocked on the door and walked in to t

Amelia woke up yawning as her eyes got fixed on the bedside table and she immediately picked it up, seeing it unbelievably.A box wrapped with gift paper and a handwritten note... she quickly unwrapped the gift assuming it was from Stig.There was the latest model of the iPhone. He has gifted her a phone?"Hope! Hope!" Amelia climbed out of her bed and ran to Hope's room as she jumped on her bed, waking her up."Hope! Wake up.. Wake up... Wake up!" she shook her body and Hope who seemed to be tired from the last night... worrying about nothing but Amelia, slowly opened her eyes as she spoke in a hoarse tone, "What is wrong with you, Amelia?""See this... Stig has gifted me a phone!" her tone filled with excitement as she speaks."Oh great..." Hope replied casually as she closed her eyes again to sleep when Amelia spoke, "But how does he know where I am... Maybe he's here..."The second she said those words, Hope's eyes bulged out as sh

"Girls? What girls, Kris?" he asked impatiently when Kristopher indicated him to his left and when he looked, he was as shocked as Kristopher was.The girls were looking... breathtaking.Both of them were in knee-length dresses, hair let loose to their back and the red lipstick on their lips made them look bold.Both, Kristopher and Christian were stunned for a moment."This girl will be..." Kristopher was drooling over Hope when he was interrupted by Christian Valentino who can't stop staring at the black beauty in front of him as he spoke, "the death of me."Hope, from the corner of her eye, saw Kristopher and winked in his direction while he could not stop but stared at her.She was so feisty tonight. Wearing a red knee-length dress, a soft makeup on her face but the red lips stole the show.Red and black... the hottest colours when it comes to the choice of women.Amelia looked happy... so beautiful."We are going to ge

"That girl there... in the wedding dress who is pretending to be the heartbroken one.. is actually the one who caused me agony and pain. She slept with the guy who was the marketing manager in my company. Not even one time... but many times. Also, Blair hid that she can't be a mother, ever!" he spat in anger when Blair's eyes were nothing but bulged out."So, tell me, people. Who would marry the girl who betrayed me two fucking times? I would never...""Amelia had sacrificed her love for me... she told me to marry her. Why? Because my happiness is much more important to her. Even though she's carrying my child..." he added confidently making all of the guests chocked while Blair was going insane."Christian Valentino! You can't do this to me!" Blair piqued in anger as she walked to him whilst her arm was being held in the midway."Papa..." she murmured when her father's face was covered with scorn.Blair gulped and added, "Papa, he is lying.

The bride followed in a white lacy dress, escorted by her friends. They walked in a slow and doll-like pace. The wedding was also an occasion for socializing.Blair's face was impassive, she was clearly annoyed.The guests were gossiping about the bride and the groom. Everybody was thinking that the groom wasn't coming and he ditched her at the last moment.Stacey was so sure that her grandson has run away but the best friend was here. He might know something."Amelia..." Christian said in a low voice when he saw Amelia was standing close to the water, her bare feet on the sand.In front of her were the magnificent view, the sea, the sky and the wind.The waves roll in, each of them as strong and bold as the last. They come without fear of the beach, embracing their destiny upon the dawn sands. Amelia walks forwards until the water soaks her bare feet, her shoes already dangling in her left hand. Not once does she gaze downward a

Weddings are grand affairs. Normally, it only occurs once in a lifetime. It brings about a bondage between a man and a woman.They promised to share the happiness and the sorrows together. It is a very pure bond in the whole world.The wedding hall was all illuminated with different colour bulbs and decorated with pots of flowers, pots and other glittering decorations. A magnificent platform was erected which held two throne-like chairs for the bride and the bridegroom.The platform and the stage was the banquet hall of a five-star hotel with its thick red carpets and floral decorations. The cool fragrance was so strong that everyone left sleepy. There was a place by the side for music troops with their enormous music instruments. They played loud and soft music.The marriage party was to start at six in the evening and the wedding reception was scheduled at eight in the night.A big white canopy with tons of white lilies and purple orchids were pl

"Listen to me, Bryce..." Blair whispered in a very low voice when she was in the suite of the Plaza Hotel, surrounded by the makeup artists."Excuse me, people..." she said to the makeup artists and hairstylists who went away leaving the two of the friends."What is it?" Bryce asked sipping the glass of her wine as she was comfortably leaning back on the seat, wearing a bathrobe.Blair's hair was half tied up while the rest let loose on her both sides of the shoulders."By the way, you are going to make a very pretty bride," the best friend complimented when Blair rolled her eyes as she hushed her up."Shut up and listen to me..." Blair said when she continued, "I can't conceive...""What do you want to conceive anyway?" Bryce asked with a narrowed brow and Blair, again, rolled her eyes."Are you drunk, already?" she asked with an irritated face and Bryce nodded saying, "Because it's my best friend's fucking wedding.""Also, sh

The wedding day has arrived and Christian's anxiety was increasing with every minute passing by.He was awake but not leaving the bed, scared to step out and face the world.Amelia, who woke up before him and had a shower and prepared the breakfast, walked in the room and spoke, "Come on, have something. The breakfast is ready."He tossed to the other side saying, "Not hungry..." and she knew why he wasn't eating."Christian..." she stepped in the bed and put her small hand on his face to cup it as she spoke, "Christian... you are a strong guy. Don't be a coward.""I am a coward, Amelia. I can't face the world. I can't face Blair and all of my family members and the press and... and you... How can I face you after the wedding? How can I part the time from my schedule to handle two women at a time, if that's what you're thinking," he blurted out without thinking and sits to lean back on the bed as he continued, "You the most important person i

"No need to wear the bow with it," Kristopher said to his best friend who was checking the bow if it matched with his tuxedo."I was thinking the same," he replied as he gave the bow back to the sales guy.Christian and Kristopher were in the Armani store, selecting the wedding suit for the groom.His face was impassive, he had no excitement, no happiness or any other emotion in his face.Tomorrow is his wedding and he is not happy at all. What was he waiting for? The wedding to happen or the wedding to get stopped?"Christian, your grandma wants to meet you..." Kristopher informed him when he was lost in deep thoughts.When the guilt comes it takes him down the old familiar path. He wants to refuse to walk it, pretend that he's the person he demands that he would be. He wants to see himself in sepia tones, not perfect colour. He wants to scrub his head, but if he did he'd never learn from what happened. And it's true what they say, “T

Christian and Amelia were bare skin, laying close to each other, her head rested on his chest as she heard the slow heartbeats of him.His heart beats around her was always leisure as if he was calm and relaxed with her.The ring of his phone interrupted their peace and as he saw the name, he quickly stood up from the bed, wearing his clothes, as he attended the call."Yes, Blair?" he spoke when he turned the speaker on, wearing the pants."Baby, where are you?" she asked in a sweet voice when Amelia quickly made an awkward face by squinting her eyes as she raised one side of the mouth, babbling with no voice and Christian indicated her to stay quiet.After talking on the phone when Amelia was laying on the bed, she copied Blair's voice by saying, "Babbyyyy... where are you, baby? Christian... come to me, please.""My hair will go white if you don't come in a minute..." she said with the change of voice when he chuckled and said, "did

When Christian didn't say a word, she understood as she withdrew her hand from his grip and the machines which were attached to her started beeping continuously.Blair's breath was high by now and she was struggling for air. Gasping for oxygen when Christian quickly pressed the help button next to her bed and made her wear the oxygen mask.Blair wasn't wearing the oxygen mask when the doctors came in they rushed towards her as they said, "Wear this mask.""No... I... won't. Christian... I want... answers," she said gasping for air struggling not to wear the oxygen mask.The doctors along with Christian was trying to wear her the oxygen mask."Blair, I will give you the answer. First, wear this mask," he pleaded when she refused to wear the oxygen mask.He gave up and quickly said, "Okay, Blair. I promise you to be your groom and we will get married on the same day."The seconds she heard those relaxing words, she immediately wor
