Chapter 198

198 The other side of love ….

A few hours before Ramsey I stood on the fitting platform , the wedding shops mirror reflecting my image as the tailors ran around me , making last minute adjustments to the Tuxedo I had on .

According to their plans , I will be dressed in a tux for the first part of the wedding , while the second part will be our official Ceremonial Joining attire .

I stood still , mechanical , trying to focus on anything except the thought of Lyla getting married today .

Each tick of the clock on the wall felt like a countdown to my hell .

Do you want us to shorten the cuffs ? the tailor suddenly asked me , staring at me with uncertainty .

Whatever you please , I murmured , refusing to meet his gaze .

Despite my calm expression , my thoughts inside were far from calm .

I couldnt stop thinking about Lyla .

I had purposely avoided my phone today because I had to resist the temptation to look up the ceremony .

Although Nathan had ruled for barely a year as an Alpha , he had become influential in our world .

Many werewolves looked up to him , and despite his insistence that he wanted a simple wedding .

everyone couldnt stop talking about it , and I didnt have an issue with Nathan .

I just couldnt wrap my head around the fact that Lyla would be walking down the aisle to another man .

The mere thought sent a sharp pain through my chest which I swallowed ; I couldnt afford to let it show .

As the tailors went away to adjust the cuffs , the bell above the shop door chimed and in the mirrors reflection , I saw my grandfather enter .

The temperature in the room seemed to drop several degrees .

Ramsey , he started in a gruff voice .

When they told me you were here , I thought they were joking .

I have fittings , I replied curtly , adjusting the lapels of my tuxedo .

After the Harvest Moon Festival , we had avoided each other like plague .
