While we had good luck with the weather during the day, by the time we get into the car to head home the skies have opened up, drenching the city in a torrential spring rain storm. My stomach is full of delicious food, my ears still ringing from the live band that serenaded the reception, and my heart is unexpectedly full of joy.

Introducing Max to my mom and brother went smoother than I could have hoped for. Max charmed them both and spent about half an hour just chatting with them while I was being bombarded with questions by Candice. Her petite face was pink with excitement as she demanded every detail, but I kept Max out of the corner of my eye, genuinely smiling all the while. My mother had many questions, too, of course, and I promised to pay her a visit to smooth out all the details as soon as I had the time.

And now it’s all over, and I can’t be more relieved. Of course, now that the wedding is over with I have to worry about the marriage portion of this twisted contract, but I’m definitely not as apprehensive as I was when this all began. Max has really grown on me. He started off such an asshole and I hated his guts, but he has been so cool and supportive during this whole wedding fiasco, and for that I’m very grateful. I’m not sure I would have made it through without him, honestly.

Max is leaning against the door of the car, head pressed against the window, and for a moment I think he’s asleep. But he looks up when I take his hand and offer him a small smile, which he returns, squeezing my hand back.

But, I remind myself, it’s temporary. This is all temporary.

The penthouse is dark when we enter, just like it was last night, but this feels entirely different. Max flips on a couple lights and puts away his umbrella as I kick my shoes off and lift my skirt up so as to walk easier.

“I’m going to go take this off,” I tell him, heading down the hallway towards my bedroom. Luckily, I remember watching Madeline remove the dress in the mirror at the salon, so I’m able to loosen it myself. It drops unceremoniously to the floor, a cloud of white puff, and I decide to leave it there for the time being until I know what to do with it. I’m left in the white silk shift I was instructed to wear under the dress, and decide to leave it on, wrapping my navy blue robe around myself for modesty.

I pad back out to the kitchen, where predictably Max is mixing us some drinks. He looks at my body appreciatively as I take a seat at the counter, and whistles. “Look at my hot wife,” he says, grinning, as he passes me my drink.

I make a face, but a smile soon takes over. “Still so weird, you calling me your wife.
