Helanie:
It was odd. Wearing a white dress for my wedding. I chose a plain satin dress because we still had to show that I wasn't happy about this marriage but at the same time, I wanted to look like a bride for Emmet.
There weren't going to be many people. Just my family and Kaidon's family. My friends had decided not to come because I told them so. They were anxious, and I had to tell them to just trust me.
Penn had been extremely upset because after his initial offer to help me out in front of the brothers, I never got back to him.
"Just think about it one more time. Marrying Kaidon would traumatize you." Lamar was on the phone with me, others listening in since he had put it on speaker.
"Lamar, trust me. I'll be fine," I reassured him, scared that maybe our calls were being recorded.
"Why didn't she choose me?" Penn muttered from behind, still complaining.
"Penn, not right now," Salem hissed at him, and he grunted in response.
