Book 1 of the Attraction series•
"Ares what are you doing?" I stumbled on my words as his fingers lingered over the lace of my pajama bottoms, he let out a low chuckle.
"here's the thing Adrienne, I'm not doing anything." I felt him move around befo...
The following morning I woke up to a faint knocking on my door as Valentina walked in she was still in her pjs and had a robe draped over her she slowly came up to me tapping me on the shoulder lightly before whispering
"Riena, you need to wake up" I groan turning away from her I hear her footsteps fade away letting out a sigh of relief, I turn onto my stomach before I hear 2 sets of footsteps on the hardwood flooring inching closer to my house door I let out a huff before sitting up as my door opened revealing Valentina and Ares, Valentina had her arms crossed over her chest as Ares stands behind her his attire was his usual a black shirt the two top buttons left undone along with dress pants.
"You will be going out with Valentina to pick a wedding dress and get things sorted for the wedding, some of my men will be with you, and once you are back. We have been invited to dinner at your parents"I let out a sigh but nodded as he walked out of the room, looking towards Valentina as I got out of bed
"You had to get him?" I asked glaring at her
"Got you out of bed didn't it?" She smiled as we both walked into my closet finding something easy but classy as we were going to the mall and then dinner it wouldn't have to be perfect
(Her outfit will be at the top of the chapter)
As I smoothed out my skirt and added simple jewelry to my outfit before walking out of the bathroom where Valentina was on my bed on her phone walking over to her she looked up obviously hearing my heels come in contact with the hard flooring she smiled as she stood up and spoke
"You look so beautiful" Her comment made me smile as I walked over to my dresser where Valentina's straightener sat I quickly straightened my hair before following Val out the door and down the hallway we both stopped in front of a door frowning I turned towards her as she spoke
"Stay here I'll be right back, I need to talk to Ace real quick" I nodded as she entered the room tapping my foot as a man walked past me he stopped before turning to face me he looked no older than 19.
"Who are you?" He asked his eyebrows furrowing in confusion
"Adrienne" I state looking at my phone as I continued to tap my foot anxiously.
"So you're the fiancee," He asked the question making me lift my head to meet his eyes.
"Sadly yes, I'm his fiancée?" I mumbled he let out a hum as he looked me up and down
"Are you done staring at me?" I question as I continue to stare down at my phone.
"Well darling, if I'm going to be honest I'm not" He grinned
"Darling?" I hum "That's new" Valentina opens the door smiling at me
"Oh hello, Nico?"Nico gives a small wave toward Valentina before smiling at me and continuing down the hallway Val loops her arm with mine and we both walk down into the garage I smirk at her.
"Please let me drive!" I beg she gives me a questioning look before passing me the keys
"Woo, you're in charge of music" I smile walking over to the white landrover.

As I drive out of the long ass driveway Val connects her music as I put in directions and continue to navigate through town as we get to the mall we both get out of the car I straighten out my skirt and I grab my phone from the inter consol seeing a message from Roman ignoring it I place it into my suit jacket and follow Val through the mall and into the bridal store.
"Hello, I'm Chloé how may I help you?" Her French accent flowed off her tongue.
"We're here for her wedding dress"Valentina politely smiles
"Oh wonderful!" she claps her hands and walks away as Val and I follow closely behind her.
she points to some seats and smiles as she grabs us some champagne as wanders off to find some wedding dress ideas before coming back with a smile set on her face as he ushered me into the dressing room
"I'll be right outside to help" she smiled as she walked out of the changing room.
I had been dreaming of my wedding day since I was a little girl. I had always imagined myself walking down the aisle in a beautiful white dress, surrounded by my loved ones. Now that I was engaged, I had wondered if this was all really worth it.
Here I am in the bridal shop with Valentina, as soon as I walked in, I was in awe of all the gorgeous dresses. I have tried on dress after dress, but none of them felt quite right. Just when I was about to give up, Chloé brought out a dress that was absolutely stunning. As soon as I put on the dress, the dress was made of delicate fabric and had a flowing train. I twirled around in front of the mirror, feeling gorgeous. As I walked out of the changing room and onto the step in front of Valentina she smiled and clapped her hands
"You look stunning!!"
I looked in the mirror at the dress and how it sucked in at the waist and flowed freely from the hips downwards I knew that this was the dress.
I took the dress off but not before taking some photos for myself and walking out to the counter where Valentina was standing on her phone with a bag in hand she looked up as she saw me before speaking up
"Ok, let's go Ares has already paid for the dress and he told us to get back home shortly" She smiled as she looped her arm through mine pulling me out of the shop.
"Bye Chloé!" I smile as she waves from the counter.
