KIANA'S POV

I woke up around ten in the morning, I needed to have a well deserved rest after all the stress of yesterday. We were so exhausted by the time we returned home but I am glad I listened to Lucy because I loved every single thing I bought and I am looking forward to getting dressed.

The engagement party is later this evening, so I still have enough time before then... I looked around for Lucy but she's no where to be found, I wonder where she went to. I got out of bed and made my way to the bathroom, I showered and then I stepped out, put my hair in a messy bun and then I changed into something very simple, just as Lucy returned.

" You are up." Lucy noted as soon as she stepped in.

" Yes, where were you?"

I sat on the bed and grabbed the phone, I am very hungry and I need to order something for breakfast.

" Nowhere in particular, just strolling around."

" Oh I see, what do you want for breakfast?"

" Anything is fine."

She made her way to the bathroom while I started calli

    KIANA'S POV I sat down in front of the vanity for hours, while Lucy was doing one thing or the other on me the whole time ... She started with my hair that was already prepped at the salon yesterday, then she styled it in a low wavy ponytail and she left a few strands of hair out to softly frame my face. After styling my hair, she moved to doing my makeup which took a long time. Lucy did a mixture of brown and gold color blend for my eyeshadow and a red lipstick to match my dress... Like I said, she spent like an hour or so on the makeup alone but the finished product was totally worth it. Honestly, I look so classy and beautiful, the make up is moderate and I have no complaints." I love it girl, you did a very good job."" Yeah?"She acted like she's not aware of how good she just made me look but the smile on her face made me realize that she just wanted me to praise her and I don't mind because she totally deserves it." Of course, you are amazing. Maybe we should open a makeup

Thanks handsome, you look great." I complimented as I took a look at his outfit.He is wearing a custom made three pieces navy blue double breasted blazer Suit Set with vest and he paired it with a white dress shirt and navy blue tie. He was looking yummy as always..." Oh yeah?" He smiled and spinned around for me which made me laugh " well not as great as you look."" You gave me your card for a reason right? It will be a shame not to impress." " I must say that you did a great job and I could stand here and stare at you all night but we have guests, are you ready?" I looked behind him at our so called guests and I don't even think they care about our presence because they are obviously having fun." Yes, sure. Let's do this." I said excitedly but I am a little nervous." Good." He held my hand as we made our

    KIANA'S POV I woke up to my phone ringing but I am still too groggy then I tired to get up, still with my eyes still closed, I felt around the bed for my clutch and when I found it, I brought out the phone." Hello." I answered without checking the caller ID." Where are you?" The voice cut through and I wondered who I am speaking to.I reluctantly opened my eyes and then I checked my caller ID and noticed that is my stepmom Bridget... I don't understand why she has been calling me desperately since yesterday." I am at home." I lied because I don't know how to explain to her that I don't have a home and I now stay at a hotel." Come to the house for lunch, I need to speak to you." " I don't know mom, I have a lot to do today but..." " I am not asking Kiana, I want you home by twelve." She interrupted and ended the call before I could say anything else.I just put my phone down and continued my sleep but unfortunately for me, I couldn't sleep anymore because the only thing on my mi

Why am I here mom?" I changed the topic because I don't want to be rude." Sit down." I followed her instruction without complaining because that's the only way I can get out of here early enough." Yesterday, an engagement party was aired on the television and it was yours, why did I have to find out about your engagement on TV?" Lucy and I were right after all, she saw it and she's obviously not pleased with it." Well my fiancee organized the party and I didn't know about i

After the engagement party, mom and dad called to find out about kiana and he promised to come with her this weekend.I am really concerned with the way Pierce is moving so fast and I still don't have anything on her that can ruin their relationship. Their relationship is definitely beyond a contract marriage like Pierce makes it look, I saw the way they looked at each other longingly at the party. It's obvious something is brewing between them and I need to put an end to it." I like her." I heard Pierce say on my way to the kitchen. " I really do." He is with Stan in the living room, I know they are talking about Kiana, so I decided to eavesdrop and know his true intentions." You should tell her, I have a feeling she likes you too." Stan pointed out and that's one of the reasons I don't like him.He is always encouraging Pierce to be with other girls

Lucy pointed out but I have no idea who she's referring to." Who?"" Ashley, it's nice of her to be willing to assist you." That's true, she's nice." Yes but it's for her parents right and if she refuses to help me, I might end up buying them something they don't like and I really need them to like me."" Well you are right. I know you like Pierce and all but why are you so kin on impressing his parents?" " Pierce didn't tell them the truth about our relationship and he wants me to pretend like we are in love and getting married for real." I couldn't say no when he asked me because he is already doing me a lot of favors and it will be selfish of me to turn him down." Oh I see but why, why can't he just tell them the truth." I asked him the same exact question." Well he said his parents are pressuring him to

They are rich, so you have to look classy and expensive but also chaste." " I think I have something that fits your description." " Good, now go and get ready."" It's pretty early, I still have a few hours to go." I pointed out because all I want to do is stay in bed, I am really not in the mood to go out." Look, this is your first visit and you can't afford to be tardy besides I still need to do your hair and makeup." " Fine, I will just rest for like thirty minutes and then I will get ready."

Her last statement before she walked out of my office is still bugging me, what does she mean by I will regret it?"I don't understand, what was she doing here?" Stan asked as he sat in front me.Honestly, I think I have been a burden to everyone especially Stan, I am always releasing my stress on him and it doesn't make sense. He hasn't even had the opportunity to share any personal thing with me, I don't even know what's going on in his life. It's has always been about me and it's not okay... He had a crush on Ashley for a long time and I haven't even stopped to ask how all of this makes him feel, I am a horrible friend."It's a lot of bullshit, don't worry about it." "What do you mean by that? If I didn't want to know or care about your mess, then I wouldn't have asked." I know he cares but I feel like a selfish person."Look Stan, I feel bad.

I have put in so much effort over the years to have him and this is the closest I have gotten so far, so I won't let him go. Enough of all the drama, it's time to make a decision.As soon as I got to his company, I stepped bout of the car and I made a beeline to his office. "Ashley, what are you doing here?" Pierce asked as soon as he noticed me."I came to see you." I said as I sat down on the chair in front of him."What is it this time, do you have another secret revelation for me?" He asked sarcastically and I know that him finding out randomly about us not having the same parents must be painful for him but I didn't have a choice, been siblings was restric

    KIANA'S POV My day and work was going smoothly but I haven't spoken to Pierce this morning, so I decided to call and check up on him."Hi love, how are you doing?" He asked as soon as he picked my call. His voice is not as cheerful as it use to be and I am not surprised considering everything that has been happening with him lately, honestly it's a lot for one person to handle."I'm fine baby, how are you?""I'm okay, I just got to work a while ago." That's weird, it's already eleven o'clock and he usually goes to work around nine in the morning."Why is that? You are late, did something happen?" I asked curiously."Not really, it's just that I slept at Stan's place because I don't want to see Ashley and I don't have my clothes at his place, so I had to do a little shopping this morning before work." "Oh I see, that's fine. Have you had something to eat?" I asked because yesterday he didn't eat and even when I made him follow me to the restaurant, he still didn't eat much."Not yet

    KIANA'S POV "What are you thinking about?" Lucy asked when she joined me in the living room and I wonder how she realized that I was thinking.I am yet to tell her what Pierce told me at the store today about Ashley, it's just weird saying it out loud."A lot, I am thinking about a lot of things." I said truthfully.The whole issue with Ashley is a lot and it's very offensive and I can't even be upset because I have to support Pierce seeing as it's not exactly his fault. I mean he didn't think is sister was stupid enough to have a crush on him and even act on it, I mean who in their right senses will think of something like that, so I can't blame him."What's wrong, you know you can talk to me. Is it about the baby or are you having issues with Pierce again?" She asked worriedly as she put down her coffee mug and gave me her full attention."No, it's none of that. It's about Ashley, you were right all along. Ashley is the mystery lady and she has been ruining all his relationships fo

"Do we need to hire more people because I don't want to keep the customers waiting for too long." I want us to give a good impression, so that they can come back next time."No, I think we are fine for now. I just came to get bottle water, I will join them and we will be done in no time." "Okay cool, I just want to rest a little, I will join you too." I said just as Pierce stepped into the office.What's going on with him? He looks so stressed and all over the place, he seems worried and the way he came in was like he ran here or something."Pierce, how are you?" Lucy greeted after grabbing a bottle of water."I'm fine Lucy, how are you?""I'm okay, I will be outside." She said just before she stepped ou

    PIERCE'S POV Today has been a lot and I am glad that I took Stan's advice and I told my parents but the outcome is very horrible, I can't get over the fact that the people I have known all my life as my parents turned out not to be my biological parents but I think the most painful part is that Ashley used it as a weapon, she thought that breaking the news was going to change my decision but she was wrong because no matter what happens between us, I will always and only see her as my little sister, so she broke the news and hurt our parents for nothing, it was a total waste."How did it go man?" Stan asked as soon as I got back to the office.I don't even know why I am here because with all of this mess, it's obvious that I won't be of any use here."It was bad man, terrible. Ashley is out of control and there is no saving her." I explained as I sat behind my desk."Really, are you saying that your dad couldn't do anything?" "Yeah, no one can do anything. In fact she said something

I asked as I got up from the couch and walked up to her.I can't believe she just said that, just because she desperately wants to marry me, what's all this drama?"Are you okay baby, do you need help. You know you can tell me right?" Mom asked worriedly as she got up and touched Ashley's face."I am sorry but I know what I am saying and nothing is wrong with me. Pierce is not my brother and you both know it." She repeated the awful sentence again and it broke my heart. "Pierce is not your son." She said without mincing words while staring at my parents and they are staring back at her in shock and I don't know if they are shocked because she's saying the truth or they are shocked at the nonsense flying out of her mouth."Why do you want to marry him so bad that you are saying this about your brother, of course he is our son." Dad said and it somehow made me relax a little."You guys c

I don't have the appetite for food, I am just anxiously waiting for Ashley to show up and hopefully, my dad can fix the mess going on."Are you sure you don't want to eat?" Stan asked from the dining table."Yeah, I am fine." I am not fine, my head is pounding, my temperature is high and I am hungry but I can't find it in me to eat or stay calm, I am a mess.My phone started ringing again and even without checking, I already know that it's Kiana. She's obviously worried and she won't stop calling until I pick her call, so I decided to pick up."Hi love." "Baby, are you okay? I have been calling you since morning, is everything okay?" She asked worriedly and I feel stupid for not picking her call since."Sorry, I have been really busy and I wasn't close to my phone, are you okay?"

My phone started ringing and I checked the caller ID and I noticed that it's Kiana again. I wish I could just pick the call and tell her what's happening but I can't, it will hurt her and she's pregnant, I can't afford to hurt her like that over the phone."Don't worry man, everything will be fine." Stan assured me when he noticed that I didn't pick the call again but I know he is only trying to be supportive.There is no way anything can be done with the load of crap I am about to dump on them and it's sad because they don't deserve to have kids that will bring shame to them after all their sacrifices over the years but I guess the deed has already been done."Pierce, Stan, what are you guys doing here this early?" Mom asked the moment we entered the living room and she saw us... She has a big smile on her face and it hurts that I am here to ruin it."Good morning ma'am
