Chapter 11

“You are not enjoying the meal?” Isabella asked the girl curiously as she dug into her salad a little disinterestedly. Isabella had called her and asked her out to lunch in order to get to know her a little bit. She was curious about this girl her brother was marrying. She was not his type as beautiful as she was. And besides she was a small town girl who went to church. What on earth did they have in common? But she had seen the way Jayda looked at him and as reluctant as her brother was to show his emotions she had never seen him look at a woman the way he did Jayda. It was as if he was intent on protecting her from everything. He had made himself her knight in shining armor and she had never pictured Alessandro in that light.

“I am not particularly hungry,” she said looking up with a wan smile. “It has been a very hectic few weeks and the wedding being two weeks away I am afraid I am kind of nervous.”

“You will get used to the round of parties and functions that is required of you,” Isabella assured her. She sipped her flavored water and eyed her curiously. “Is that all?”

Jayda shrugged. “Your brother is not very happy with me.”

“Alessandro is complex. I would have thought you would have picked up on that by now.”

“I have.” Jayda swirled her drink around in her glass. And then taking a deep breath she continued. “We are in a very strange situation, Isabella. At least it is strange for him. I am a virgin and I told him that I am not willing to let go of that until we are married.”

Isabella stared at the woman in shock! This was getting stranger and stranger! “Are you sure you are engaged to my brother?”

Jayda smiled at her before answering. “I know of his past, Isabella. I have read up on him and knew that he was a wild card before he met me and I am still a little fearful of that but I know he is going to be faithful to me because for some reason he never wants to hurt me and he told me he cannot look on anyone else. He is avoiding me. We would go to these functions and he would have the driver take me home but we are never alone together.”

Isabella stared at the innocent woman opposite her and almost burst out laughing! Either she was the real deal or she was an angel minus the wings and the halo. “He is probably avoiding you because of the very same unusual situation you two are in.” She looked at the girl speculatively. “My brother has never done that before. He is spoiled where women are concerned and I guess you understand why.”

“I am not one of them. I am the woman he is going to marry and I am determined that he is going to look at me different.
