Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“Will you please relax even for a moment?” Miracle said while we were walking inside the Cassiela Hotel where the party was being held. “And please fix your mask if you don’t want Jyn to know that you are already here.”It was a masquerade party and wearing a mask is required in our attire. And I chose a plain gold mask with butterfly wings on the side. I matched it to the red backless dress that I bought earlier in the mall.Before coming here, Miracle told me that the bodyguards that had been following me the whole day were hired by Jyn so I had to lose them before coming here. I can’t let Jyn know that I am also here because he will surely do everything just to avoid me.He might leave the party earlier than his plan if he learned that Remus also invited me.“And please, don’t act like you are a gate crasher,” she said while laughing. “Dahlia Clan received an invitation for this party. Meaning, all of the Dahlia are invited to go here so there is nothing wr
Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovAfter telling Jyn everything that I wanted to say, I left him on that balcony. I want to give him some time to think and let everything that I said sink into his mind. That I will not let him go that easily.I was planning to go home since I already got what I needed here but before I could even reach the exit of the hotel, I was immediately stopped by a group of men-in-suit.I felt nervous because I didn't know any of them and I was about to step back and run but I saw the man standing behind these men.I smiled. “I thought you needed some time to think,” I said. “You already made up your mind?” I walked to him and stood in front of me with the sweetest smile.He just stared at me and after a while, he hugged me tight. “You are so hard-headed, baby girl,” he said, which made me chuckle. “And you are really enjoying this.”“Well, I thought I have to do harder to convince you to come back to me.”He took a deep breath. “Are you really sure about your decision?
Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovDad agreed to let Jyn sleep in my room. He just gave me a condition that we can’t lock the door and I agreed with that. Well, it is just for their peace of mind. This is not the first time that we will sleep together in one bed but nothing indecent happened to us.I even tried to seduce him but we only reached on making out because he always told me that it was too early for us to do anything more than that.I don’t mind. I don’t feel rejected by that. And actually, I feel respected because of it.“So…” He was sitting in my bed while leaning on the headboard while I was sitting in front of him. “We haven’t been together for the past year and we have to make up for all that time.”He raised his eyebrows on me. “And how do you plan to do that?”“We will be together every day,” I said. “I transferred the foundation to Aasiyah. She loved managing it and she wished to have it permanently to lessen my value to Hector’s party. With that, he will lose one of the reas
Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“Marry me—aw!” I glared at him because he bit my fingers. “What was that for?”“You keep stealing my lines, baby girl,” he said. “I should be the one saying those to you, you know.”I rolled my eyes. “Just because I am a woman, I don’t have the right to ask you to marry me,” I rebutted. “I believe that men and women are equal. Women can do what men can do.”“I know that.” He pulled me closer and hugged me. “But there is no harm being a gentleman, you know. So, please let me do my part.”“But you are slow.” I pouted. “If I don’t initiate for us, nothing will surely happen.”“I am not slow, baby girl.” He kissed my forehead. “I just want you to enjoy the moment of us being in a relationship because marriage is far different from this. It is not always sweet and good moments. It is a constant roller coaster and I don’t want you to enter that sacred moment of our lives without preparation.”“I am not good at preparation.”“I know,” he said. “We have different ways
Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovCassiela Clan is also part of Jyn’s family. That is why after we had our breakfast in our house, we immediately went to the hotel where all of them were still staying.I want to pay my respect to them and honor them as Jyn’s family. And I also want them to know that I don’t have the intention to take Jyn away from them once we get married. I will respect their relationship with him.And I guess they loved the idea of informing them about the plan for our wedding because they were all happy for us.They also gave me a warm welcome and told me that they have my back, because marrying Jyn will also connect me to be part of their family.I have known that this clan is kind. A lot of people already proved that but I still didn’t expect that they would accept me wholeheartedly.“Are you okay?” Jyn asked after I got away from Remus’ cousins. “You looked overwhelmed.”“I am,” I answered. “I only expected that they would respect our relationship but it never occurred t
Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovReina Rumia Cassiela-Jyn is alive.That is the headline in the national news in our country because she was involved in a large issue that happened almost five years ago.According to their source, someone found Reina in the burning house where Prince Hector brought her and saved her. When she woke up, she couldn’t remember anything about her and that is the reason why she couldn’t come back immediately to her family.The person who saved her took care of her and helped her regain her strength until she finally remembered everything. That is when she decided to go back to her family.It has been one week since she suddenly showed up at the hotel where we announced my supposed wedding with Jyn.But after that day, all those plans vanished because Jyn was busy taking care of Reina.And I can’t blame him for that.He loves Reina first. He married her first and he thought he lost her. If she hadn’t disappeared from his life, I doubt Jyn would fall in love with me.
Asper Reign Dahlia’s Pov“Asper Dahlia…” I was happily greeted by Prince Hector, the current crown prince of our country and elder brother of Miracle. “I didn’t expect that you would personally show yourself to me and—aw! Shit!”“Asper!” Miracle shouted right after I punched her brother in the face and stomach. She immediately grabbed me away from Hector. “Please don’t be too hard. We will get in trouble if my parents hear about this.”I didn’t answer her. I just stared at Hector who was now kneeling on the floor while caressing her face and stomach.“W-what the hell?” He lifted his face and gave me a deadly glare. “What do you think you are doing?”“This is your fault!” I shouted at him. “It is your fault that my heart is breaking into pieces right now!”His eyes widened and panic was all over his face. As if he didn’t expect what I was saying.“This is your fault!” I slapped him but there is no strength in it anymore. It was like my palm barely touched his face and I couldn’t help b
Asper Reign Dahlia’s PovKnowing that the mighty Hector Ryedeen Azaria falls in love with a woman is not really normal. We all know him as someone who doesn’t know how to respect anyone, especially women.He only looks at women as someone that he can use whenever he wants. He has been switching from one girl to another and bedding them almost every day. Even the woman who works in this palace can’t evade his aggressive treatment towards them. He was harassing them, even in front of every high official here.Because just like I said before, every male member of the Azaria Clan always looks down on women and they only treat them like tools, whether they are part of their clan or not.That is why it didn’t shock me when Miracle passed out after hearing that the brother he knew as a monster fell in love with someone.“You…” I pointed at Hector. “...are in love.”“I am not!” he denied and immediately averted his eyes away from me. “I am not!”I smirked. “It sounded like you were convincing
