Zoe's POV

"Is everything okay? She has her diapers, bottle, bib, pacif-"

"I took care of you, didn't I? Go and enjoy the night." I sighed and took a deep breath. My mom was right, tonight was my last night of 'freedom' before I married X. I mean technically our freedom was over the minute was agreed to a relationship, but whatever.

I met Becca along with a couple acquaintances outside my house and we piled into the limo that had been rented just for this. "Boo, we love you which is why we can't let you see where we are going?"

"What?" Before I could comprehend what was happening, a blind fold was put over my eyes. "Guys, I don't know how I feel about this." I tried to claw at the blind fold, but Becca prevented me from getting it.

"Nope! You are going to let loose and have fun, starting with you drinking this glass of champagne and not taking that blind fold off."

Oh what the hell.

We finally arrived at our destination and the booming bass suggested that we were at some type of club. When I finally took off the blind fold, I realized we were at a club.

A male strip club.

"Oh my gosh, Beck you have finally gone off the deep end. A male strip club?" She busted out laughing.

"Time to face your fears." I smirked and shook my head as I followed her into the club.

It wasn't that I had a real fear of male strip clubs but they just freaked me out a little bit. I never found the thought of a man twerking in my face or slapping me in the face with his privates pleasing. Quite the opposite actually.

Becca and another friend Natalie dragged me into a chair and held me down by the shoulders while this sexy man, probably Brazilian, waltzed up to me. He was wearing boxers about 5 sizes too small and nothing else.

"So you're the lucky lady?" He said seductively as he circled around the chair, examining me closely. "Mm, you're in for a treat."

He began to grind slowly in the air-very close to my face, I might add- and but his lip. He flexed muscles and began to do moves that shouldn't be seen outside of a bedroom. The dance was disturbing in itself but the minute he went for the undies, I was done.

"Nope! I'm not doing this anymore!" I pushed myself up quickly and slid Becca in the chair. "Have fun!" I quickly escaped as the stripper started his dance again and pushed open the doors to the club. I needed air.

"Zoe?" I looked up and saw Rain, one of Frank's closest friends.

"Rain?" When she realized it was me, her face turned dark and she stormed over and slapped me.

"How could you? What gave you the right to see Frank in his last minutes? Why didn't you call us, huh? Then you don't even have the audacity to show up to his funeral? Why would you hurt his family that way? You left him then all of a sudden you were all over his side at the hospital." The death of Frank was still raw in my heart, especially since I didn't make it to the funeral.

"Rain, I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt because you're hurting, but don't you ever touch me again. I was called because I'm the only contact Frank had down. I called his parents numerous times and they never answered. And I didn't go to the funeral because I was pregnant and the doctors thought it would be too much stress on my child. The most I could do was give my child a name in his honor, so don't you come at me like I'm the bad guy, because it's scarring to watch someone you care about die. If anything you better be glad you weren't there." I left her speechless and I pulled out my phone to call a taxi.

Rain had caused feelings that I didn't want to confront toe riot in me all at once. I was overwhelmed and I needed to get home, now. I sent Becca a text saying that I had to go home and that I'd explain everything to her later on. The taxi arrived surprisingly fast and I gave them my address. When we arrived closer, I sighed and hit my head. Of course I'd forgotten that X's bachelor party was being held back at the house when they got back from the club.

I paid the taxi and walked up to my front door and opened it. I was a little curious when I saw nobody in the living room. I almost passed by without any thought until I heard a moan. I looked over the couch and saw Ava.

Straddling my fiancee.

Kissing him.

Grinding on him.

I saw red. I didn't care that she was my sister at this point. I grabbed her by her hair and dragged her off of X.

"What the hell are you doing in my house, on my fiancee?" She scoffed.

"Simply claiming what was mine, back." If she still wasn't pregnant I would've dragged her around this room and beat her unconscious.

I ignored her and turned my attention to a very confused X. "Don't expect any type of marriage tomorrow. You hear me? F*ck you." I threw my rings down onto X and stormed out of the house with Ava's tinkling laughter mocking me as I left.

X's POV (Earlier that night)

"Hey man, I think it's time to head back to your place." A tipsy Luke said as he leaned on me. I agreed because the woman here were like vultures and it was really annoying to keep turning down women who couldn't get the hint.

Me and Jay, the only other sober person, rounded up all my friends and led them back to the limo. We piled in and made our way back to my house where my idiotic friends started pouring more liquor.

I plopped down on the couch and stretched out while I watched my friends make a fool of themselves. Luke shoved a cup in my face and grinned. "You got to drink at least one." He slurred all his words and I just chuckled at him but grabbed the drink anyway.

I looked over and noticed that even Jay was drinking. I shrugged and took a sip out of the cup. That's when it hit me hard.

By this time tomorrow, I'll be married to the woman of my dreams.

I continued to drink and think about my life with Zoe and Ayanna when my vision started getting hazy and I started getting dizzy. I was no light weight so I knew that something was wrong. I tried to stand up, but instead fell on the ground.

I'd realized that none of my friends were in the room either. When had they left?

"Hey Baby." I tried to look over, but my vision was blurry.

"Zoe?" My speech was slurred and heavy.

"No, I'm better than her."

I blacked out after that and didn't wake until I felt a weight being lifted off of me and screaming. I looked up and saw Ava and Zoe, Zoe looked livid and Ava was smirking.

What was Ava doing here?

I couldn't really hear anything yet because I was still so disoriented but one thing I did realize was that Zoe turned to me and threw her engagement ring, then stormed out.

No matter how confused I was, I knew that I'd just lost my fiancee.
