The Lies He Told Me (Grace and Antonio)

The Lies He Told Me 151

The day I found out

my fiance was marrying my stepsister, I was looking for an abortion.

The night before our wedding. I saw him and my stepsister getting married in a castle.

I couldn't believe my eyes. The scene played out in front of me like a haunting dream, one that I couldn't escape from no matter how hard I prayed for it to end.

I stood outside the castle in the rain, watching as my fiance, Antonio Kaufman, kissed my stepsister, Roxanne Parrish.

There he was, the man I loved, standing at the altar with my stepsister, exchanging vows and rings.

And she looked every bit the princess that I never could be.

After about ten minutes, he took the blushing Roxanne in his arms. They looked so happy

Only then did I notice my family and friends were here, too. My aunts and my father were smiling while holding each other.

My brother, Levi, whom I'd saved with my life, was officiating the wedding. In a black robe, he blessed Roxanne.

Did he forget that I was his full sister, not her?

Once, we almost got run over by Roxanne and her mom Elise!

Just then, Levi exclaimed, "May you be happy forever."
