"Hey, sis! Congratulations again." Troy said warmly, approaching me, and hugged me.

"Thank you, Troy." I gave him a grateful look.

"Wait a minute! Did you know about it, Troy?" My father asked him, frustrated, raising his eyebrow.

I gave my brother a nervous look. He pursed his lips together and ran his hand through his hair.

"Umm..." Troy mumbled, rubbing his nape uncomfortably. "Yes, I was his best man." He confessed honestly.

"How could you go behind my back and hide it from me?!" My father exclaimed angrily, clenching his fist. "We will talk about it later. Alone!" He added sternly.

"It isn't necessary, Dad. I did what was right. I know how much they love each other. Actually, all of us know about it. They proved it to everyone several times that it is true love between them. So I supported their decision." Troy stated confidently and gave Romeo and me a warm smile. Romeo nodded, mouthing thank you. Meanwhile, I gave him a grateful smile.

My father breathed deeply and ran his hand through his hair without saying anything.

"Well, as a parent, we would like to see our children's wedding. But my impatient son surprised us." Asher commented and winked at Romeo. My husband pursed his lips together, rubbing the back of his neck. "However, you can't stop us from attending your wedding ceremony." Aspen added, giving us a cunning look.

Romeo and exchanged a confused look. Meanwhile, everyone was looking at my father-in-law in confusion.

"Be ready! In two weeks, you are going to have a wedding reception." He informed joyfully. "What do you think, Aspen?" He turned his gaze to my father and asked his opinion. Meanwhile, I looked at Romeo, surprised. He gave me his charming smile and shrugged his shoulders.

"Fine with me." My father nodded, placing his hand into his pocket.

"Great! In two weeks, there is a grand wedding." Asher announced cheerfully.

***

I was looking at myself in the mirror without managing to hold myself from smiling. Today was our wedding ceremony. I felt drunk with happiness. A few minutes ago, I talked to Romeo; he seemed so excited as well. His voice almost shook while talking. I had never seen him like this.

Suddenly, the door opened, and my father walked in, interrupting my thoughts. As soon as he saw me, his jaw dropped.

"A real princess!" My father exclaimed, giving me a broad smile as he approached me. "You look so beautiful." He added emotionally as tears shimmered in his eyes and hugged me.

"Thank you, Dad." I gave him a warm smile, still hugging him.

He pulled back and placed a soft kiss on my forehead. Then he looked at me from head to toe in awe. I wore a designer wedding dress with v-neck bodice decorated with three-dimensional embroidery that cascades down the gown and with a front skirt slit, showing the perfect amount of my skin. The soft tulle A-line skirt subtly skimmed my body and detachable off-the-shoulder sleeves tied in a dainty bow, giving me an ethereal effect.

"Didn't you change your mind?" He asked hopefully.

"Dad!"

"Fine. Fine." He sighed. "It seems I can't get rid of him anytime soon. And I should bear his presence as my precious daughter's husband now. At least, I know he wouldn't dare to hurt you; he isn't that level stupid." My father frowned.

"Why don't you like him? You had got along very well before we started dating." I asked in curiosity.

"It was before he stole my only daughter." He pouted.

I gave him a warm smile. "Dad, no one stole me from you. I will always be your daughter, and you will always be my amazing father. I love you so much." I confessed tenderly.

He gave me a bright smile and kissed my forehead. "Be happy, my little girl." He said warmly and extended his hand towards me. I smiled and linked my arm onto his arm.

After a vow renewal, Romeo held my hand tightly and led us into the wedding ceremony venue.

The place was decorated with a mixture of unique floral designs in pink and white color tones. Romantic arches were adorned with branches and fresh flowers in white and pink hues, and dainty chandeliers amped up the entire stage decor and the flowers arranged in the form of a waterfall from the table with the twinkling candles makes it all the more pleasing and romantic.

Everyone applauded us cheerfully as we went towards the dancing floor to do our first dance. Romeo wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to me, and held my hand with his free hand, lacing his finger to mine. My other hand rested on his shoulder while we were looking at each other lovingly.

"My bride looks fabulous." He exclaimed in awe, leaning towards my ear while holding me against his body firmly.

I gave him a bright smile and commented mischievously. "My groom isn't bad either."

He chuckled and took a step back from his embrace, holding my arm up in the air. Then he guided me to twirl and pulled me into his chest without taking his eyes off me, full of love and affection in his eyes.

"I love you, Mrs. Wright." He stated sincerely and brushed his lips against mine.

I was sipping my champagne, standing beside Lucia and Nicole chatting. However, my attention was on the dancing floor. Charlotte and Nathan were dancing, looking into each other's eyes. I could feel the attraction between them even from here. Moreover, you could notice how Charlotte looked happy, her eyes were shining.

After a while, Charlotte approached me, beaming ear-to-ear.

"Where is your hubby?" She asked mischievously.

"He is talking to Troy and Adam." I replied, gesturing to them with a head gesture.

She nodded and commented softly. "You look so beautiful, honey. Your gown is gorgeous."

"Thank you, Lottie." I flashed a warm smile and sipped my drink. "So will you tell me what is going on between Nathan and you?" I gave him a knowing look.

She bit her lower lip as her cheeks turned pink. "Nothing." She mumbled nervously, ruffling her hair.

I grinned, unconvinced and looked behind her. Nathan was standing beside Lucca and Liam while staring at Charlotte intensely.

"You are being watched." I winked at Lottie playfully.

"What?!" She asked, confused and turned around. As soon as her eyes met with Nathan's eyes, her whole face lit up.

"Will you still deny?" I asked, amused.

"I don't understand what you are talking about." She mumbled nervously as she turned her gaze from Nathan to me.

I raised my eyebrow. "Hope you will tell me about it soon. Otherwise, I know the ways to make you spill the beans." I commented cockily and gave her a wicked smirk.

She shook her head, smiling. "You started looking like your husband. You and my brother are pain in the ass. He is a bad influence on you. My best friend has been a good girl before." She pouted. I chuckled in amusement.

After dancing with Liam, I went to sit beside Lucia for a while; I felt tired. When I checked around, looking for Lottie, I didn't see her anywhere nor Nathan. I grinned knowingly and took a few sips from my water.

"Here is my beautiful wife." Romeo said, approaching me when I was going towards Troy.

"Hey, hubby." I grinned, amused and let him kiss me.

As he pulled back, my lover boy grabbed my arm and led us away from the guests. He pulled a white envelope out of the pocket of tuxedo jacket and extended it towards me.

"What is it?" I asked, intrigued as I took the envelope.

"Surprise." He winked at me.

I smiled, excited and opened the envelope. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion as I saw travel brochures.

"Will you travel the World with me?" He asked, giving me his charming smile. "After our honeymoon in Maldives." He added huskily and bit his lower lip seductively.

"With pleasure." I replied in excitement and hugged him, smiling happily.

He hugged me tightly and swirled me around. I laughed joyfully, gripping his shoulders.

"I will make love to you all around the world." He stated huskily, cupping my cheek, pressing me against his body as he put me down carefully and smashed his lips against mine, kissing me passionately.

"Less words, more action, Mr. Wright as I told you before." I teased him, grinning when he pulled back slightly.

He burst out laughing. "I proved to you that I am the man of my word. I will prove it now as well. And I will start tonight." He stated confidently, full of desire in his eyes, and winked at me.

"We will see." I gave him a devilish grin and kissed his lips. He tightened his grip around my waist and deepened the kiss.
