It's finally the day of the big event.
"Ma everything looks great that's quite a surprise for your age" said Fiona.
"Ohh thank you" I said without letting out a smile.
"What about Rafael?" It's not like I cared if he attended or not I just want to be sure of his ware about.
"He left since last night" she said.
"Okay well what about my dress is it ready?"
"Yes Madam and because of who Sir is in this country they decided to close down their warehouse for today to come dress you up" Queen who looked the most excited said.
"That's nice just hope it won't be a waste of time. I said.
I've come to notice something about Rafael housing styles, everything In the house looks like it has come right from the 90s royal time, like the cell phones are all landlines. There are not much of technology, just a blissful and enchanted Disney setting. That's why my outfits always look straight from a Manhwa.
The event started not to long ago and the more guest arrive the more scared I become, mostly for my family I haven't seen since that day but now that I think about it all this seems too suspicious. Like why do I have to host a party to introduce myself as your wife when you aren't even going to attend and basically invite people who controls the county and my family that am not on good terms with, if one think of it it's like it doesn't add up.
"Can I please get on the line with Reafael" I said to Simon, Diana and Bruno who were left behind for my protection.
"But Ma, that won't be possible Boss doesn't like to be disturbed" said Diana.
"I said I want to talk to my husband!!!" Even the waiters for tonight could hear my voice and the way it was loud.
"Have you tried using the landline?" Simon asked.
"Yes but I have no patience to wait give me your phone now!!" I said.
"She's not even fully dressed" Diana whispered to Bruno but even the walls could hear them.
Because of my reaction Simon instantly begin to call Rafael and before the third ring he picked the call.
"What is it Simon?" His voice was intimidating even from the phone.
"Boss your wife wants to talk to you" said Simon who sounded like he's used to things like this. He passed me the phone and for a second I forgot what I wanted to say.
"Speak I don't have time" his voice was cold.
"I can't do this, when will you be coming back?" I sounded vulnerable, but I really want him here.
"Am really busy, that's why Simon and the others are there with you, so don't be scared basically in front of the people" he said, like he was talking to an employee.
"When will you be coming back?" He didn't even answer the question before he end the call, making me feel like a fool.
"Thank you for the phone" I inhaled. "You guys should be alert basically for my family they are monsters, can we go get myself ready there's no time" I said as Me and the maids went straight to my room to go finish with my makeup.
One thing I told myself is that I won't look easy to anyone of them, just as my family would be here am sure the other guest would be like them, won't it be foolish to show them your weak side.
"And now we welcome Mrs Zaira White Wellington"
I could here their mummeries and peirceful eyes as I walked up to the stage. I was dressed in a golden champagne Gucci sleeveless gown with slits, and a LV gold pencil hill. Even my makeup was flawless representing the house of royalty and wealth. My black hair was styled in a center pattern bold straight, covering my open back skin.
"Good evening Ladies and Gentlemen, am really glad you all could make it here today and am so so sorry about my husbands absence, but not to worry I personally planned this event so please feel free and I hope you all enjoy today" I said following a heavy silence from the guest who looked supriesed and not pleased.
"Excuse me but who the hell do you think you are?" A lady in a mini black gown and wavy blond hair said dragging everyone's attention.
"OMG, it Jazebel, Fuck" said Diana who was standing close to me.
"So your the new replacement" she said walking close to me, she was about to touch me but was stopped by Simon, Diana and Bruno who were holding weapons.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you" said Simon.
"Chill out, beside my lovely Rafael was the one who invited me to this party but it's such a shame he's not here" she said.
"And who are you please if I may ask?" I tried bringing out a smile but it couldn't stay long.
"Ohhh that's right your new am Rafael sex toy" she boldly said.
"So your my husbands mistress?" I said.
"Yes for now, ohhh don't worry about him seeing an outsider cause the only outsider here is you darling" she boldly said.
"I don't have time for this, excuse me I have guest to attend to enjoy the party" I said walking out on her.
I never knew greeting people could be this tiring, sone tried to pick a fight with me, some insulted me, some even asked for our wedding certificate, it's just really exhausting.
"Wow I never knew you could throw a party my sweet little sister" Nash hands were around my waist making my blood to boil but I couldn't do anything cause of the way am scared of him.
"Ohhh dear were is your husband? Or did you also kill him like you killed your parents for money" my stepmom wasn't left behind as she looked like the mother of the party.
"He went on a trip" I said with my head down.
"Really so he left you here all alone to handle a party I hope you didn't steal those clothes your wearing " they both begin to laugh as tears filled my eyes.
"Excuse me Ma but I am really excited to be here, you did a really great job for a 22 years old, you really are smart and beautiful" a blond hair and green eyes handsome stranger from nowhere came to my rescue.
"Thank you" I said avoiding eye contact with him.
"Do you mind if I introduced you to my friends" he said dragging me along with him away from my family.
"Thank you for earlier" I calmly said in a low voice.
"It's okay, just glad you still look beautiful Zaira" he said.
"What's your name?" I asked the handsome blond hair.
"Ethan Stone, from your childhood days and am surprised you broke our promise" there's only one person bearing that name from 12 years ago.
"What!? I though you left?" I was filled with many questions I want to ask the only person I've ever loved and promise to be together forever in an abandoned church 12 years ago.
"Yeah and now am back, but what happened you promise to wait for me" he said.
"What have I gotten myself into" I said to myself.
