Alina arrived at the lavish wedding dress shop, an assortment of beautiful white gowns displayed everywhere, this was gonna be her one day, looking for her own wedding dress for her special day, as she looked around, she heard a familiar voice behind her, greeting the shop owner and body guards, she turned around, her heart dropping slightly, the woman walked closer to her, Alina backed away, placing a space between them.

"Selene, what're you doing here?" Alina asked with hostility.

"Well..Tayana invited me here, I wasn't stalking you." She said, with the same amount of hostility which pissed Alina off even more.

"Didn't know my sister was still hanging out with skanks." Alina spat out, shaking her head at Selene as she looked her up and down.

"Well she is one herself, and it takes one to know one, isn't that what they say?" Selene clapped back.

"They also say it's inappropriate to hit a bitch in public but I might just have to do that." Alina said, walking much closer to her, much to Selene's surprise, she didn't expect Alina to be the violent type, she wondered what in the world Dominic saw in her.

Just before more chaos could interrupt, Tayana walked in with a posse of friends and supporters into the shop, her smile fell slightly as she noticed Selene and Alina together.

"Hey ladies...can we take our seats please? I don't want to talk much time for this, I have wedding planning to do. "

Soon, the atmosphere was buzzing with excitement, the dress shop was filled with delicate lace and fabrics of various wedding dresses, there was so much to choose from, luckily the bride-to-be's friends and family were eager to help her find the perfect dress.

Tayana moved from rack to rack, her friends trailing behind her, their voices chatting and laughing filled with anticipation. Her hands skimmed over rich fabrics and intricate details of each gown, her eyes wide and filled with wonder and indecision. Exiting the changing rooms, Tayana tried on multiple dresses, each other as beautiful and unique in its own way, she twirled and posed in from of the mirrors and her friends, getting different opinions. Alina sat far from Selene, juts wanting to have a good time and support her sister today.

Finally, Tayana stood in the centre of the room once again, a stunning, white satin wedding dress draping over her body, emphasising her curves and radiancy. Alina and everyone else couldn't help but admire the dress, taking in every detail of the intricate lace bodice and flowing skirt. Tayana spun around, her face filled with excitement and satisfaction.

"This is it," She said, her eyes sparkling. "This is the one."

Alina couldn't help the tears from streaming down her face as she watched her sister I the beautiful dress. She dabbed at her eyes with a handkerchief, trying to control her emotions as she spoke. "You look so beautiful," She said, her voice wavering with emotion " I can't believe you're getting married." Tayana, touched by her sister's reaction, smiled warmly and reached out to take her hand. "Don't cry baby sis, you'll ruin your makeup. Besides, it's a happy day. I'm getting married got the love of my life. That's something to be celebrated." Alina sniffled and nodded.

"You're right." Alina stood up and picked up a bottle of champagne before and topped it, making everyone stand up and shout in excitement of their friend and sister getting married.

After the dress fitting, the ladies went shopping for dinner dresses for tonight's engagement party.

--------

Alina was nervous and excited at the same time, standing in front of the mirror, adjusting her hair and makeup. She smoothed her dress down before they needed t head out for the engagement dinner. The dress, a simple yet elegant black number, hugging her figure tightly, she couldn't help but feel a little nervous about tonight/ Dominic watched her from the bed as he finished putting on his tie, he noticed her slight unease and stood up to walk over to her. "Let me help you darling." He said, his voice reassuring and gentle "Everything is gonna be okay." His hands went to the zipper on the back of her dress. Dominic's gaze roamed her form in the fitted dress and couldn't help but admire her beauty. He stepped closer to her, his hands coming to rest on her hips, pulling her gently against him. He whispered in her ear, his voice low and seductive "You're going to drive me crazy in this dress."
