"I LOVE my dad so much. I mean, I never really talk about him. I normally just talk about my mum, and leave my dad out. But that isn’t fair because I love him… Obviously, because he’s my dad. I’m lucky to have him as a dad, anyway. Plus, he bought me clothes yesterday! What a lovely, generous man! And omg, I desperately want these shoes that I saw... If I tell him, do you think he'll buy them for me? No, I am not a brat, really I am not..."

– From Ava's Diary

Ava

I glance at the suited man driving the SUV. Baron’s broad shoulders are encased in a black jacket. He’d refused to wear a tie and his shirt buttons are open to reveal the demarcation between his pecs. That stubborn lock of hair falls over his forehead and his jaw is hard as he focuses on the road ahead. He looks delicious, and sexy, and so damn hot. My stomach flip-flops and my thighs clench. Being with him would have already made me the envy of every single person at the wedding…

Then, add in the man riding shotgun with him. In his dark jacket and yellow tie that picks out the golden flares in his eyes, Edward is the epitome of suave masculinity. His shoulders are as broad as Baron’s, while the rest of him is leaner, which still means that he’s a big guy, with his muscled physique, broad chest, tapered waist and those powerful thighs currently clad in what are, surely, tailor-made pants.

After we’d spoken yesterday, the guys had had Archer drop by with their clothes and a suitcase full of garments. Baron had compromised and allowed me to use his phone—which was, apparently, secure—to call Isla to tell her that Archer was on his way. Of course, she had been curious about where I was, and I told her I couldn’t reveal my location, which had prompted a flurry of questions. To which I’d said that I would tell her more when I met her at the wedding.

At least, I was able to give her instructions on the clothes she had to pack for me, which included this dress. Made of layered silk, with a modest neckline and a back that dips almost to the cleft of my butt, the pale pink dress coordinates beautifully with my burgundy shawl. Paired with matching lipstick, the combination is both sexy, as well as modest enough, to not steal attention from the bride. Not that it matters. I wouldn’t care, either way. I’m not there for Lina. I am there purely to support my dad. I don’t want to disappoint my family; that’s all.

"You, okay?" Edward meets my gaze in the mirror. "You’ve been awfully quiet."

"I’m nervous."

Which is true… I am walking in with two men, and don’t exactly want to be questioned about why I am there with both of them.

"You worried about raising eyebrows?" Baron asks me. Typical Baron. Never one to mince words, he always puts out there the stuff that others hesitate to say aloud.
