After that, things just became worse between Damon and I but this time, it didn’t bother me because I was done trying to see if he and i

could work.

I still acted like a caring wife in front of his family and Pack but when we were alone, we were strangers.

Soon, it was the day of Liam’s and Veronica’s wedding, I wasn’t excited to be back at that pack but I was excited to see Aunt Amelia again.

The make up artist and hairstylist finished their magic on me and like last time, I couldn’t recognize myself. My blond hair was slicked back on a bun and the no makeup look was done splendidly.

Delilah came in later and helped me get ready and I was in awe of the dress Damon had gotten for me and I couldn’t lie, he had style.

“This green dress brings out the slight green in your eyes. You look beautiful, Clara” She complimented and I smiled.

Despite how crazy she was most of the time, Delilah and I had gotten very close and it was nice having a friend besides Aunt Amelia.

“I can’t help but notice you and my brother are having issues” Delilah suddenly uttered and i turned to her with wide eyes. I thought Damon and I were acting out the living couple perfectly?

“Why would you say that?” I questioned and she smiled.

“I know my brother and he’s been more moody than usual and I had a feeling it had to do with you. Did you guys fight? Look Clara, my brother is a good guy, he…” Unable to stop myself, I let out a scoff and she halted her sentence.

“Can we not talk about this, please? I just want to get this day over with” I murmured and she nodded slightly before leading me out of my

room.

Just like last time, Damon and Luca were waiting for me at the bottom of the stairs.

I took a deep breath before walking down the stairs and even though I wasn’t looking at him, I could feel Damon’s eyes on me.

“You look gorgeous, Madam Clara” Luca complimented and I smiled at him.

“Let’s go” Damon uttered then turned around and immediately walked away without glancing back.

“Don’t mind him. Let me escort you” Luca uttered and I smiled slightly as he led me out of the house.

Soon, I was inside the car with Damon, the driver and Luca sitting in the front seat.

The tension in the air was almost unbearable and I was tempted to say something but I kept it to myself.

Luca tried breaking the awkward tension by cracking a few jokes but Damon ignored him and I did too so he eventually gave up.
