Avery's pov

Finally the day has come.

I was getting ready for the event sitting in front of the mirror, while mom is helping me for my big day. The makeup artist did my make up and the maids helped me put on my dress.i was holding my bouquet in my hands and I was shaking nervously.

Just take deep breaths and relax.

I'm going to get married to that arrogant jerk.

I'm scared to death.

I've always dreamt of this day but not like this.

I'd always thought that I would be getting married to James.

It kinda hurts.

The dress mom chose for me was perfect.

It's an off shoulder type ball gown.

When I went for my dress fitting It felt so weird.

I saw my mom crying.

"Don't cry mum" I said hugging her.

"I'm sorry Avery" she said tears falling out her eyes.

"It's fine mother" I replied.

"I love you my baby" she said still crying.

"I love you mom" I kissed her cheeks.

Seeing my mom cry made my eyes start to water.

" Mom you are making her cry, Aves stop. You'll mess up your pretty face I don't want my little sis looking like a clown with mascara running down her face " Ella joked.

I hugged mom and Ella because I couldn't help it.

" I wanna say this..if something happens.. I'm just a call away.. I'll be there to kill him with my knife" she said sadistically.

She's making me scared, but knowing she means welll made me happy.

"Avery dear" my aunt screamed.

" Aunt Mary…I thought you weren't going to make it..I said as I hugged her.

"How would I miss my favourite niece's big day" she kissed my fore head.

"Ouch that hurts" I heard Ella say making everyone laugh.

" Awwwwn my baby don't me jealous, come hug aunty" Aunt teased Ella

Mom handed me my veil as they all gushed on how beautiful I look.

"It's time" a woman announced and I left the dressing room with her.

"Just relax" she said and I place my hands around dad's.

The music began to play and I walked gracefully down the aisle with my dad. I looked ahead and Ace was looking at me, he quickly averted his eyes.it made my heart skip a beat.

Gush…he is really an eye candy. He looked dashing in his suit.

Avery calm your racing mind down you're not crazy, it's normal because you're getting married to a greek god.

When his eyes met mine, it felt like time stopped.

It's just him and I, no one else.

I don't want to look away from those beautiful hypnotizing eyes.

It clearly dawned on me.

I, Avery Kingston is getting married to Ace Russell the sexy but arrogant multi billonaire.

My father gave my hands to him and immediately a jolt of electricity passed through.

Did I just feel a spark? Maybe I was overthinking things.

"Take care of my daughter, son" my father told him.

"I will sir" he smirked.

I want to wipe that stupid smirk off his face, he can't even wait for the wedding to be over for him to start thinking of things to do to make me regret this marriage.

I want to pull my hands from his hold. But I stopped myself.

The priest started the ceremony.

"We are gathered here to join together this lovely couples." The priest announced.

Ewww lovely couples my fucking ass.

"Ace Russell, do you take Avery Kingston to be your lovely wedded wife? Do you promise to be faithful to her in good and in bad times, in sickness and in health, to love and honour her all the days of your life?.

"I do" he sent me a fake smile.

Was the fake smile really necessary?

"Avery Kingston, do you take Ace Russell to be your lovely wedded husband? Do you promise to be faithful to her in good and in bad times, in sickness and in health, to love and honour her all the days of your life?" Now it's my turn

For a second I thought of running away , I'm sure Ace would be really mad and go crazy.

I couldn't control my laugh. I saw Ace narrowing his eyes at me in confusion.

"I do" I said giving a smile.

We exchanged rings.

"With the power vested in me I pronounce your husband and wife. You may kiss the bride" the priest announced.

Ohh wait I didn't think of that, I don't want to kiss him.

"Hey" Ace said snapping me out of my daze.

I stare at him.

"Are you scared?" He asked.

He took my veil and smirked.

I glared at him.

When I was busy glaring at him he kissed my forehead leaving me stunned.i thought he was going to kiss me on the lip, maybe I was a little bit disappointed.

We walked out to the car, Now it's my turn to throw the bouquet.

Throwing it back I saw that one of the guest caught it, she looks beautiful.

I hugged my mum, dad, Aunty Mary and Ella.

Mum and Ella were crying now.

"Don't cry guys, I'll come visit you soon." I waved at them and walked to the car.

We both fell into a comfortable silence, I hope everything turns out good.

And guys I'm officially married to Ace Russell making me Avery Rusell.
