Lana Castroff

I brought the last box into Phoenix's penthouse and put it in my bedroom. I looked at all the boxes and stretched my arms out because it's been a tiring day moving in from my house to his penthouse.

Phoenix's penthouse has two floors and he even has a private pool on the second floor which is amazing. I can't believe he's living alone in this penthouse and manages not to feel lonely most of the time.

    Phoenix SterlingWe purposely came kinda late to Maldives because we don't want to deal with people before the party. We arrived about 2 hours before the wedding and we both were busy preparing ourselves for it."Ready?" I was fixing my tie when she came out from the bathroom looking so beautiful in her cream cocktail dress. She smiled at me and turned her body around."What do you think?" She asked."You look beautiful." I said because she did take my breath away. She grabbed her small clutch and she pointed at the door. "Let's go?""Yeah." I said and I checked myself one more time at the mirror before going out. I turned to her and asked her to link her arms to mine. She linked her arm and we walked to the venue together.

    Lana CastroffI might not looked that nervous but I was dying inside. I was dying because of his touch, his kisses and the way he always pulled my body to his. My brain stopped functioning from time to time.I looked at myself at the mirror and looked down to see the wedding ring. Phoenix asked me to wear it tonight for the after party, he's going to go for it. He already told his parents and they were excited. They demanded a big wedding and I really hate the idea when we're not even real.I slipped the ring into my ring finger and looked at the mirror again. I walked out from the bathroom and tried to look for Phoenix."Phoenix." I called him."Yeah?" I heard him coming in from outside.

    Phoenix SterlingMy alert went off when I saw Eric sitting next to Lana. I kept my eyes on her when she was talking to him. It seemed like she introduced herself as my wife to him because she showed him the ring.I never liked Eric. He's the type of guy who always want what other people have. Technically since Lana was married to me, she's mine, even though we both know it's pure an agreement."Jealous?" Lorenzo whispered to my ear and I turned to him shaking my head. "Jealous is not my thing, Lorenzo. She loves me too much to cheat." I said proudly and he pointed at Lana. I turned my head and saw them exchanging phone numbers."Let them be, she's always overly friendly." I said and Lorenzo laughed."Don't tell me that you

    Lana CastroffI walked out from the bathroom and I saw Phoenix already sleeping on the bed. He made a line with the pillows so I could sleep on the bed too without being touch by him. I closed the bathroom door slowly and decided to go out to the porch that's facing the sea to read a book instead of going to sleep right away.Phoenix didn't even change his clothes. He must be so tired.I walked out to the porch with my book and started reading. I love reading and hearing the sea at the same time. It's really calming. My eyes started to get heavy and I ended up falling asleep."Lana.." I opened my eyes slowly."Hmm?""Get up and let's have breakfast. My parents already waiting for us
