Short chapter-I hope you can forgive me.

Adriano Calvetti


The church organ begins to play.

How ironic?

The most dangerous unchristian creatures in the world in a church.

Pretending.

As if they didn't have the blood of God's children on their hands.

But who am I to judge, right?

I look to the huge door when all the attendants stand up.

It opens and there she is.

My soon-to-be wife.

The woman I never thought in a thousand years would be strutting down this aisle towards me.

A few days before my 23rd birthday and the day I will officially take over the business.

With her father by her side, she approaches me.

Everyone stares at her.

Including me.

Even if I don't want to.

I shouldn't be looking at her like that, but I can't.

My cock is such a fucking traitor.

For one time he should do what my goddamn head wants.

But no.

At least it's not my fucking fault. I can't control it.

What I can control is what I feel and I don't feel a goddamn positive thing for her.

It was awful enough that we had to go to this ball.

And that I fucking woke up next to her?

The fact that I can hardly remember what happened after Darius left is very clear evidence that I drank a lot, but the fact that I slept in bed with her?

I must have drank for 20 men.

They come closer and closer until they stand in front of me and Grayson hands her to me.

I take her hands in mine and then look into her eyes.

Everyone is ready.

Vivian, maid of honor.

Felicia, the only bridesmaid, stepping in for the sister Amara never had.

Darius, the best man.

Matteo, the groomsman.

The guests.

The priest.

Everyone is ready.

Only me and Amara aren't ready.

Fuck it.

At least now it can't get any worse.

The priest starts to talk.

„We are gathered here in the presence of God, family, and friends to unite Adriano Calvetti and Amara Thorne in holy matrimony. "He starts.

And so, it goes on for the next 20 minutes.

"Adriano Calvetti and Amara Thorne, have you come here freely and without reservation to give yourselves to each other in marriage?"

„Yes. " We both answer.

"Will you honor each other as man and wife for the rest of your lives?"

„Yes. "

And then we come to the vows.
