Chapter 39
Aaliyah
"You are about to marry my annoying, handsome brother," Hayley said to me as I stood in front of the mirror, dressed in a long white wedding gown. Her warm hands brushed my shoulder.
I smiled, staring at the ring on my finger. A few days ago, I got engaged to Tristan. We had talked about the pregnancy, and Tristan promised that Sarah and the other witches would take care of it. They wouldn't allow the heir to die during the first transformation.
"I have a gift for you," she said, taking a small box. She gently opened it, and my eyes widened at the sight of a diamond necklace inside.
"This is for you," she said.
"Thank you," I smiled as she fastened the necklace around my neck. "It's beautiful. I love it."
"This is just a small wedding," Hayley said. "But I know that the Council will arrange a celebration for you and Tristan if he can finally convince them."
