Eleonora Gates POV
Wedding Day

I woke up by my alarm beeping that was set for 6 a.m. I lazily got up then made my bed and headed to the bathroom to begin my morning routine.

Today is the day I will marry Lorenzo. The guy that once broke my heart I would have to face him every day for two years or should I say for the rest of my life.

Fresh tears began to stream down my face as that thought hit me. We can only separate after two years if we both agree what if he doesn't?

Then I would have to spend the rest of my life with the guy that break my heart and the guy that doesn't love me.

Why wouldn't he agree Nora?

He doesn't like you!

why would he want to spend his life with you?

I cleared my throat and then walked out of my bathroom. I headed to my closet and pulled out my drawer that was filled with undergarments. I lazily took up a black lace bra that was on the top then searched for the matching thong.

I pulled on a robe and tied it when I heard a soft knock on my bedroom door. I walked towards the door the swung it open, I was met with two persons a beautiful lady and one of the guards who had accompanied her to my room.

"good morning MS. Gates, am Lora and I'm here to do your hair," she said with a smile.

I forgot that those things were necessary for weddings.

Mom must have been the one who booked these appointments. If it was up to me I would go natural with my hair in a messy bun.

"come in," I said opening the door wide enough so she could enter.

I looked at the guard and our eyes met.

"It's okay, just wait out here," I told him since all the guards were strict and protected me at all costs.

I closed the door and then turned to Lora.

"Okay let's get started shall we,"

"yes," she said with a smile looking around.

I knew she was wondering where she would be doing my hair since there was not an area for that in my bedroom.

"let's go," I said walking towards my closet.

I walked inside the closet and then opened the door that led to my mini-salon

''aww," I heard she let out a grasp.

"you like it?" I asked with a huge smile.

"yes I do," she replied while looking around

I didn't know that smile would get any wider but hearing her say yes it did.

I was happy because I designed it myself and I didn't have any friends that could see it only my hairdresser of course.

She couldn't get to do my hair because she was out of town for the week. Plus I knew about this wedding shit way too late.

"Okay let's get started," I said then sat in the chair.

My hair finished an hour later and I loved the look. The makeup artist came shortly and started my face right away.

She turned the chair towards the huge mirror that sat in front of us and then told me to open my eyes. I slowly open my eyes not knowing what to expect.

For a minute I didn't know who the girl in the mirror was. I like that she didn't use too much makeup and that it fitted perfectly with the updo style my hair was in.

"I love it," I said then got up.

"It's beautiful," Mom said from her chair that Lora was doing her hair in.

After a while, the makeup artist and Lora left after finishing up Mom.

The people that were going to help with my dress and my accessories came.

"you look beautiful my darling," I heard mom voice from the door.

I was now dressed and put together. I'm not going to lie I did look nice.

I turned to Mom who had watery eyes and walked towards her. Her dress hugged her body perfectly.

"Don't cry Mom you are going to ruin your makeup and it's fire," I scold playfully.

"Okay sweetie," she said then a huge smile made its way to her face.

"That's my girl. Now be strong for me," I said then she kissed me and nodded.

"let's go shall we," she asked then extended her hand.

I nodded then placed my right hand on her.

"you look breathtaking," I whispered and she blushed

I chuckled as we made our way down the stairs.

I saw Dad talking on the phone with his back turned as soon as we reached the bottom floor. Seconds later he got off the phone then turned toward us with a smile that melted my heart.

He strides over to us then hugs me and places a kiss on my cheek.

"my beautiful daughter, you look breathtaking," he said and I thanked him and smile

he then turned towards Mom and kissed her. " my beautiful wife you look gorgeous,"

"And you look handsome as always," Mom said

I look at them and a smile made its way to my face I love the bond that my parents shared and I have always wished to find love like theirs.
