The Unwanted Bride Of Atticus Fawn Chapter 81

Book 2 Chapter 4

Today was our first day home after the fire had almost burnt it to the ground. I was happy to be home and to celebrate; my family was having a party tonight.

Autumn smiles as she points to the dress in front of me. “I think you have to go to the party in that dress.”

“Wouldn’t it be scandalous if I wore something so short?” I ask her.

I always tried not to do things that would get me on the front cover of a magazine. I wanted to try my best to stay out of trouble. I knew that liking Damon alone could get me into more trouble than I was prepared for.

“You’re going to be around your entire family. To hell with what any i***t has to say about your outfit. It’s your body; if you want to wear it, go right ahead.” She tells me.

I smiled; I had to agree with her. It should be my choice. And I loved the silver dress that sparkled under the yellow lights above it.

“I told the guys we would meet them after the party begins,” Autumn tells me. “I want everyone to be surprised when they see us. Well, mainly you. I want them to be surprised when they see you and how beautiful you look. I’ve made some calls, and I have a hairdresser and a makeup artist on their way to dress you up.”

Something about how she said those words to me made me feel like she had an idea that I was in love with Damon. That frightened me. I never wanted anyone to know how much he meant to me.

“Is something wrong?” She asks me; she must have noticed the fear in my eyes.
