All Chapters of Brian Kings and His Substitute Bride : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

/Brian's POV/ I stare at my phone waiting for my friend,Elliot to reply my message but his W******p about icon has been showing ‘typing’ for the past five minutes. I feel a prick of sadness as I stare at my other friend sitting next to me in the car but she looks quite occupied with what she is doing on her phone. Right now, I need somebody to help me calm these nerves that are all over the place,but out of my three friends, Elliot is the only friend that is in support of my engagement. "His meeting must have commenced" I sigh in disappointment as I turn off my cellular connection and slide my phone in the breast pocket of my wine suit before staring out of the window. I have anticipated this day over the past two weeks and now that the day is finally here, I can't wait to get to the venue to get started as I take one step closer to forever with the love of my life. "How do you feel about all this?" my friend, Rhea finally breaks the silence in the car and I observe her keenly f

/Brian's pov/I hold her hand as I lead her towards the stairs on the high table but I notice that she was walking really slowly like she was going to trip and fall "This is not going to work" I mumble as I lift her off the ground carrying in a bridal styled way because that is exactly what she is to me, she is my bride. "What are you doing?" I she inquires in an alarmed voice "Don't open your eyes" I quickly instruct her so that she doesn't ruin my Suprise. "I know you are trying to prevent a situation of me slipping down the stairs, but I promise to follow your lead carefully so just put me down" she tries to convince me "Carrying you all the way is much more effective and beautiful than asking you to close your eyes and leading you there like a blind person" I answers her still moving Ember buries her head on my chest and I smile because she looks really cute while trying to avoid everyone focusing on us but on the contrary I am enjoying the attention . She eventually sl

I can feel my muscles constricting and time seemed to slow down as I stand frozen in my spot as I try to process everything that I just heard in the news.I continue to stare at the television with wide eyes that I can not shut while waiting for the journalist that dropped such a bomb on me without proper evidence to come back from the commercial break that she went on because at this point, it is feasible that my whole world is crumbling apart.“Wait a minute,the plane Jane is pregnant?” Rhea pronounces in an enquiries tone jolting me out of my state of momentary shock “Brain?” Rhea taps me again when she doesn’t get a reply from me “Are you seeing the same thing that I am seeing on the screen?” She inquires and my face suddenly start to brim with tears because at this point, I just don’t know what to do “Ember? Pregnant?…how?” I try to process, but it doesn’t just seem to add up “Your plane Jane is pregnant for Adrian?” She pronounced like she can’t believe her ears “These peo

/Brian's POV/I storm out of the resting place angrily,heading for my car and driving away while trying to stomach and process the magnitude of Adrian's betrayal only for me to be interrupted by my fathers call so I stop the car to talk to him so that I don’t get myself killed.“Mr kings has been trying to get a hold of you since the scandal broke out but he has not been able to reach you” his assistant, Miss Caleb says on the other side of the phone and I sigh. “What does my father want?” I Ask her so that she goes straight to the point instead of boring me with unnecessary details. “.your father is presently at kings corporation and he wants to have a proper conversation with you concerning everything that is going on “ she informs “ fine…..I will be there as soon as I can” I answer her before hanging up the call.One minute, I was dealing with the shock from the most unexpected news of the year, the next minute, I was dealing with my psycho ex and my back stabbing friend , now I

/Brian’s POV/“what was the reason for you guys to come all the way to ruffle my emotions like that” I mumble as I slump on the bed while my mom practically drags my sister out of the room.“hmm, they left quite early” Elliot sighs in relief as he makes his way out of the bathroom with his phone in his hand.“wait a minute…” I pause in shock“you were in there the whole time?” I ask him and he nods with a sly smile playing on his lips.Elliot looks around the room awkwardly before charmingly lifting one eyebrow as he says “I kinda felt that you guys needed a moment so I just excused you”“…….by staying in the bathroom?” I ask looking up and down at him snobbishly.“so the ‘great lengths’ that Elva went to get my location was you?” I ask him intentionally putting air quotes around my words.“ouchhhhhh……………I just exposed myself” Elliot says scratching the back of his head, something that he does when he feels really guilty.“how could you do that to me?” I ask him running my hand throug
