Alena is a young and beautiful woman who is detested by her family because of an incident she apparently caused years ago. She’s the black sheep of the family and no one cares about her. Then one day, she finds out that she has to marry a billionaire’s son who is also a billionaire himself. His name is Dylan Cameron. She refuses but is later forced to do so by her family. Dylan, on his own part, does not have any affection for Alena even after their marriage. Instead, he focuses on building the relationship between he and his longtime girlfriend despite the presence of Alena. Alena is hurt by his actions and she does so many things to please him but he doesn’t seem to notice her despite the fact that she has started developing feelings for him, and she also has high hopes for their relationship, or lack of one rather. Will Dylan ever find it in him to return her feelings? Or will Alena finally get tired of waiting for him to do so? Find out in this amazingly spellbinding story.

Chapter 1

ALENA"Alena!" my elder sister, Celeste, shouted from downstairs. I was up in my bedroom reading some magazine I had found on the couch downstairs. I didn't have the power to answer because it was obviously one of her tantrums. It was always the torture Alena game in this house. “Alena Cora Weston!" she shouted. She was probably trudging upstairs now. My family members calling me by my full name meant fire. I had asked for it anyway but was it really necessary to answer a scolding call? In two minutes my door burst open revealing Celeste. She glared at me with her you-have-not-seen-the-last-of-me eye. "I've been calling you for ages yet you've been here all along pretending you couldn't hear me, Alena and what on earth are you doing with my magazine. I thought I warned you not to touch my things without my permission," she hissed, snatching the magazine away from me leaving marks on my hand with her long expensive nails. As if the drama wasn't enough, my mother, Lynette Weston, m...

Chapter 2
DYLAN"You are kidding me, right, Dad?" I asked, raising an eyebrow. This was obviously some sick joke he was playing on me. No need to get worked up. Dad took the newspaper from my hands and read the headline on the front page. A smile immediately formed on his gracefully aging face. He looked somewhat satisfied. "Well, at least the media did everything right this time around,” he commented before tossing it away on his desk. My dad then leaned against his desk and put all his focus on me. I was fuming. He motioned for me to sit down and I did so reluctantly. I just needed a simple and straightforward explanation but my dad seemed to have a different plan. “Dyl, my son, you have to get married," he said softly in his convincing voice. I raked my hair with my hand trying my best to look calm. I failed terribly at it. I lowered my tie and unbuttoned the neck button. I poured myself a glass of water and gulped it down then looked straight into his eyes. “What on earth is this dram

Chapter 3
ALENA"Smile, Cora. This is your moment," Steve whispered into my ear as he walked me down the aisle. Nervous was an underestimation of how I was feeling. My palms were sweaty, my knees were trembling and my face was burning. I wore a gorgeous mermaid dress that was obviously a designer dress. It must have been Celeste who picked it out because everything was her taste. I had put a lot of effort into my looks for the first time in forever. I hoped it was at least fine. I dreaded this moment. I had always dreamt of my dad walking me down the aisle but fate had had other plans. At least Steve was there. I knew deep down he still had a soft spot for his younger sibling. We finally made it to the altar and there I was standing next to my would-be husband. Maybe I missed the moment but he hadn't looked at me even once. His face was glued at the priest and he didn't look that happy. Heck, he didn't look happy at all. Despite all that, I was still amazed by how effortlessly handsome he

Chapter 4
ALENAMy tears finally gave in. He was hammering my heart. This was nerve wracking. “What… What is going on? I've never met you before but you seem to have something strong against me." "You just had to come into my life the moment when everything was beautiful. You actually seem happy with this arrangement." "Did I ruin something precious to you?" "Yes. Yes you did! I can't be with the love of my life right now because of you. She is my everything. My world. I wanted her to be at the altar with me. I wanted to say wedding vows to her." "You have a..." "Yes, I have a girlfriend, and I'm not ending things with her. If anyone has the right to be my wife then that's her." Adrenaline flooded my veins. He was in love with another woman? By the looks of it this wasn't just some ordinary love. He was head over heels in love with this woman. His eyes were now sad. I could see the intense pain and sadness in his gorgeous eyes. The fact that I was the cause of this pain stabbed my pou

Chapter 5
ALENAFinally there was some peace and quiet after two weeks of constant chattering, long sessions of ‘how to do this and that' and all the drama. We only had one night till the wedding reception which would be a grand affair so everyone left the house to give us privacy. This was not just some ordinary wedding reception. A billionaire from the Cameron family was getting married to a Weston. It had to be a wedding reception that would make history. It was belated but for the sake of tradition we had to have it and make things officially official in front of everyone. I had to be taught literally everything from scratch because according to my mom, she wouldn't like being embarrassed in front of all the reputable people that would be present. I had come across Dylan a couple of times downstairs and in the hallways. He had not looked at me even once and whenever I tried to speak to him he just left me there looking stupid. He was very busy with the preparations. Everyone was. I won

ALENA"Uh, I'm sorry. I didn't know that you were in here. I'll leave," I apologized, nervously turning to leave. "No. Please come in, Alena," he offered, pausing his game. He stood up and guided me in then he patted next to him gesturing for me to sit down. He looked friendly and welcoming so I sat next to him making sure there was some considerable distance between us. I avoided eye contact with him and started playing with my fingers. "Awww. You are so shy, it's cute,” he gushed tucking loose strands of my hair behind my ear. My cheeks immediately heated up and I found myself smiling shyly like an idiot. There was a dramatic pause as he stared at me with his elbows resting on his thighs. I turned to him and saw an amused sparkle in his warm welcoming chocolate brown eyes and then he broke into a smile. "What?" I asked, trying my best to avoid eye contact. Who on earth was he? "You are so adorable and lovely. I think I'm falling,” he murmured in a singsong voice that made m

DYLAN"Is everything in place, Ezra? Everything has to be perfect," I asked Ezra, patiently checking my watch momentarily. "That's like the fifth time in a row you've asked me that obvious question, Dylan," Ezra replied, putting his hand on my arm. "Everything is perfect and everything will go according to plan. Your dad, Mrs. Weston, Celeste, Steve and other relatives are handling the guests,” he reassured me. "And Alena? When will she be done? It's been like three hours since they started dressing her up." "Oh, c'mon. She's the bride. She has to look exquisite so they are putting their maximum effort into it. They should be done in fifteen minutes." "Fine. I guess I have to wait then.” "I'll head to the ballroom. All the best, Dylan. If you need anything at all, I will make sure I'm in sight at all times.” "Sure, Ezra. See you around." Ezra disappeared down the hallway leaving me all alone in the hallway. I was nervous but I made sure to maintain a neutral facial expression.

Chapter 8
DYLANThe events of the night rolled in perfectly well as I introduced Alena to my relatives and close friends. I liked how she handled my relatives. She was polite and treated them like her own family. Gwen had no time and patience to handle my family. We seriously had to work on it if she was going to be my wife. I noticed that she was smiling. Her beguiling oyster white teeth lit up the room. After a long while of attending to guests we were served some amazing wine. The Westons owned a successful beverage company that produced the best wine, alcohol, juices, sodas, energy drinks and so forth. Their company was worth billions. They were into other industries too like us but that was their major production. "You are doing great. Great job with your voice." "Uhm, thanks. You guys must have really worked hard on this. It's perfect and I'm sure everyone loves it." She was just adorable and it was like she only had nice stuff to say. "You didn't reply me the other day when I apolo

Chapter 9
DYLANl slowly opened my eyes when I heard my bedroom door open. Last night had been one of the most tiring nights of my life and I had gotten a chance to retire to bed as late as 4 a.m after dealing with all the post wedding reception drama of clearing up stuff and ensuring that all guests from far away were comfortable in their hotel rooms. I raised my head removing the warm blanket I was covering myself with and looked at the door. All the confusion that clouded me dispersed when I saw Gwen parade in quietly closing the door behind her. "Hey honey," she greeted as she approached my comfortable and huge bed. "Hey baby,” I replied as she crawled onto the bed and pecked my lips. "It's already noon and you're still in bed. You must be exhausted," she remarked. "Yeah. I had a long night last night and I still feel like lying down," I replied yawning and stretching my arms as I sat up. "Security let me in and since I saw no one in the house I headed right up to your bedroom," she e

Chapter 10
DYLANI was flicking through the channels on TV in my main lounge when I saw Sophie and Axel amble in with wide grins on their faces and large boxes of pizza in their hands."Hey hey. Someone ordered pizza and we are just on time," Sophie babbled as she dramatically sniffed the air around her with a satisfied grin on her beautiful face. "Yeah, yeah. It's like you have some magical timer that tells you I'm about to have a feast." "And you never go wrong with the toppings either. You are just amazing," Axel added. "Did you just admit that I am amazing?" I asked Axel with one eyebrow raised. “Ummmm, I'm pretty sure I was referring to the pizza," he replied squinting his eye before the two Coopers squashed me between them and placed the boxes on the coffee table. "There is a hell lotta space in this room. Why squash me?” "We just feel like bugging you today and hey. Someone's in a good mood. I see you are like glowing today and smiling too. What's up Dyl?" Axel said pushing a little
