Chapter Ten
Olivia
I sit in front of Madelaine as the photographer takes gorgeous photos of her while sheâs in her dress. I knew this day would come, but it far surpasses anything I couldâve imagined. And the fact this woman planned most of it herself blows my mind. She didnât want anyone elseâs input when it came to her special day. Not that I blame her. Whenever Finn and I tie the knot, I hope all of my wants and needs will be respected. What the hell am I even thinking? The man has been an absolute dream, and I doubt thereâs anything he wonât let me have.
Her hair goes halfway down to her back and itâs pulled out of her face with almost a Viking braid sort of thing. The top of her dress is made of black lace, and it goes down to her wrists. Near her midsection, it fades out to white and the lace stops. Now it looks like a typical wedding dress, but when it hits her knee, it fades to black again.
Goodness, as I stare at my future sister-in-law, Iâm in awe. Sheâs smiling at the photographer, and then the photographer says something to her, but I donât pay attention to what theyâre saying. The next thing I know, the photographer leaves the suite. Iâm sitting back on the tan couch, running my hand against the floral-designed upholstery. Itâs fitting the couch is in a place like this, somewhere regal, where money has always been. Madelaine rented out an old plantation house on the outskirts of New Orleans.
âShit, can you go find Félix?â Madelaine asks me, sounding worried as hell. Sheâs furrowing her brows and aimlessly looking for something, but what Iâm not sure of.
âYeah, is everything okay?â I know itâs probably not, but I still feel like I need to ask the question. Madelaine doesnât even answer my question because sheâs aimlessly walking around the room, pulling up cushions, looking in her bag. âMadelaine,â I say her name, sounding a bit stern, and finally, she pauses.
âSorry, yeah, I just canât find the blue thing I need . . . you know something borrowed, something blue, something new.â
âOkay, and my brother has it?â I question.
Madelaine immediately nods and a rush of red brushes over her cheeks. âUm, yeah, just make sure he gives it to you in a box or something. As discreet as possible, please.â
Okay, now Iâm the cat. You know, the one thatâs going to be killed by curiosity. âYouâre going to tell me what it is, right?â I wiggle my eyebrows.
âYou donât want to know, trust me.â Even as she says it, her blush grows even bigger, and I need to know.
âMadelaine, come on, weâre going to be sisters soon. Weâre supposed to be sharing everything together.â
âYou really want me to share how your brother bought me a bright blue bedazzled butt plug, and Iâm supposed to wear it during the wedding?â
Immediately I gag, and Madelaine busts out into laughter. âOkay, maybe I didnât need to know that,â I end up telling her, and Madelaine hasnât stopped laughing.
