Chapter 24 - Chapter 24: Getting Ready

As soon as 8 am hit, Melody was all over me forcing me to wake up as she shoved me into the bathroom to shower and get ready.

This girl is serious when it comes spa days and dressing up. Oi vey.

Being rushed, I washed my face, showered, got dressed and ate breakfast in a record time of 30 minutes.

Seeing us ready to go, Melody's brother, who stayed the night in one of our many guest rooms, joked, "The only time she doesn't take 4 hours to wake up and get ready is when she is promised a free full morning at the spa uninterrupted."

I shake my head as Melody just humphs and drags me to the car.

Once in the car she goes on and on about how excited she is for tonight and to see the face of the girl from the Coward family when she realizes her grave mistake at not doing further investigating.

Although my face is not known to the public, but my name is very well known since it couldn't be hidden.

My grandfather had tried hard to keep it a secret until I was old enough to bare what it means to be the only heiress to the Hunter family, he didn't want me to be spoiled and grow up not knowing the meaning of hard work.

Especially after my parents passed away.

Everyone had known an Heiress existed in our family, but they only found out my name and other small details because when my brother was in highschool, a girl had become infatuated with him and I don't know if she thought this was the old times where people would address eachother as big brother or sister, but she would always call him big brother as if in close relation.

One day someone from the media heard and plastered that girls face everywhere questioning if she was the mysterious Heiress.

As a result my brother publicly ruined her and told them he had only one sister, and that was me, Serenity Hunter.

My brother is really a giant siscon, the poor girl should never had made people misunderstand and drag my name through the mud.

I sigh as Melody drags me from the car now that were outside her families well known spa.

Once we entered, all the employees present practically bowed and worshipped to Melody which made me cringe.

She Just nodded at them before sending them as they probably annoyed her too.

We were lead to two massage chairs and shortly after we were handed nail designs and colors to choose from.

I chose to do a golden glitter gel design and coffin shaped acrylics thinking it would go great with my dress for tonight.

Thinking about Melody's dress for tonight, I suggested gold as well and of course she chose a gold glitter design like mine, butwith almond shaped acrylics.

After a morning of pampering and massages and then a little bit of shopping, we decided it was time for lunch around 1:30 then we needed to head to our hair appointment and then home to get ready to go to the venue for my party.

For lunch we just decided to have sub sandwiches since it wouldn't be too heavy and I fully plan to indulge myself in all the food my brother picked to be served at the party.

After eating we went to a hair salon, and I instructed the stylist to just do loose mermaid curl.

What can I say, I am a simple girl.

Melody chose a cute up do that left strands of bangs framing her face highlighting her elegant features.

Once back at my house, I was feeling nervous as I went to my closet to bring out the dress I had made for Melody.

We both are fans of pastels, so I chose to have the dress made in light yellow. Perfect for the spring theme of the party.

With Melodys model height, I decided on a maxi styled dress, with one long slit up both sides of the dress extending thigh high. The dress top was tight and shaped the waist before the silk like fabric flowed down, it had a golden chain belt hanging from the waist to further accentuate the dress. Adding to the details the steps were sheer off the shoulder and the back was low cut criss crossed was a cute big bow tying it off.

The last special effect would be seen as she walked into the venue under the spot lights to be introduced.

I unzipped the garment bag that I had specially protecting the dress and watched as her jaw completely dropped before she jumped and screamed excitedly in my ear and hugged me a little too tight.

"This dress is breath taking and just my taste, Oh my god you are so amazing Serenity. Holy cow!!" she squealed.

My face bloomed with a smile as I handed her the dress to try on and the golden strappy heels I picked out to go with it for her.

She excitedly took it as she walked behind the changing divider to put the dress on.

A few minutes later she walked into my sight and I couldn't help but sigh at how perfect her figure is, but then smirk at the thought of what Braxton will think when he sees this model bombshell walk into the room.

"is it possible to be in love with myself?" she jokes as she stares at her self in the mirror.

I roll my eyes at her and pick my dress up that's still in the garment bag and my shoes and walk behind the divider.

I don't know why, but when I thought of the dress I wanted to wear, I just knew it had to be white, I love the ethereal feel of the color.

Putting on my dress, I am very happy with how perfect the design came out.

I chose to do a short cut dress that stops a couple inches above my knees, I am short so long dresses just don't suit me too well.

The dress was also a silk like fabric that moved with me very easily and wasnt heavy which by the way, I absolutely loathe heavy dresses.

No offense, but I like to be able to move around without feeling weighted down.

The dress was also tight and then flowed at waist length. Attached to the waist of the dress in the back was white sheer overlay that draped down like a train to my feet. right above the overlay in the back was a big glittery white bow. If you guys didn't notice, I have a thing for glitter and bows. It's a problem I probably won't get over.

The back of the dress was low cut exposing quite a bit of my healthy glowing skin without showing too much.

The straps of my dress were spaghetti with a sheer off the off the shoulder strap as well.

Unfortunately, unlike Melody I dont have enough boobs to hold up just an off shoulder strap.

I put on the gold heels I picked out that tie around criss cross halfway up my calves with a silky bow similar in fabric to my dress so it wont be tacky.

I look at myself in the mirror and nearly blew myself away, I won't deny how gorgeous I look tonight with my loose golden curls cascading down my back, and light make up.

I went with white, and decided on gold accessories last night when I was given the necklace from Colton and the charm bracelet from Melody.

Looking at them I couldn't help, but smile.

I decided they would be the only jewelry for tonight as I couldn't bring myself to take them off.

Walking out from the divider, I hear a loud sigh from Melody and I look at her curiously.

"What's wrong?" I ask nervously.

"Oh nothing, I just figured out it is impossible to be in love with myself because you look like some kind of flawless angel, I may turn lesbian!" she says with a smirk as she eyes me up and down.

I playfully smack her arm, "Sorry, I like men." I say smiling.

"Oh I know, and I know a certain man who is going to have a hard time tonight fighting off lechers from capturing you." she says smiling at me with a giggle.

"Psh, I am sure it'll be the same for you, if he actually leaves you alone, that is. I mean your 18 already, he may tear my perfectly designed dress apart later tonight." I say teasing her watching as her face goes bright red and she drags me out of the room and complains that she rubbed off on me in a bad way under her breath.

We walk down the stairs and see all four devils with their mouths wide open as if waiting for flies.

Melody laughs and coughs, shaking them out of their daze.

"Baby sis, you look good for a change." Luke jokes and coughs though you can see the murderous look in his eyes as he glares at Braxton who looks about ready to eat his sister.

On that note, Braxton walks up to Melody and holds out his which she shyly takes, "My goddess, will you let me escort your to tonight's party?" he says raising an eyebrow at her.

"Of course handsome." She says playing along and getting her personality back after being shaken by his lustful stare at her.

"Serenity, you look just like mom, so beautiful, she would be so happy." Hayden says and I swear he is trying not to cry right now. This big baby, man, but I feel I am trying not to cry to as I carefully run and hug him.

"Thank you brother, I wish they were here." I say with slight pain in my voice.

Seeing my hugging my brother, Colton being the devil he is felt jealous as he pulled me away from him.

"Hayden don't you have to go be a host at the party orsomething." he says.

"Nope, grandpa went since I won in rock paper scissors to escort Serenity to the party." Hayden says as he grabs my hand.

"You aren't needed, I can do that." Colton retorts and smacks his hand away from me.

These men really, more like children, but I do have a plan for tonight and Hayden escorting me won't work.

"Brother can you please go ahead, Colton will make sure I get there okay, but I really wanted you to introduce me tonight." I say making sure to give him my best puppy dog face.

He sighs giving into me, but not shooting Colton a threatening glare as if to warn him not to touch me.

I just smile at his antics as he follows along with an angry Luke behind Braxton and Melody and they bond at having their sisters taken from them.

Colton gently raises my chin up to look at him and I curse at how this man can somehow look even more handsome in a tux. 'What the hell??' I think. That is just not fair to other men.

He smirks as if reading my mind, "I haven't told you how ravishing you look yet my little goddess." he says in his deep voice close to my ear that could enchant anyone into doing his biddings.

"No need, but thank you." I say with a blush as I remember last night's confession.

He just smirks as if he can read my mind like always as he leads me to his car.

Dahm, this night is going to be really long.
