Chapter 106
<<. Avery. >>
– Seven months later –
My heart is racing with excitement and nervousness. I would love to drink a few shots to calm my nerves. But Miles forbade me from drinking over 2 drinks for any event.
His words, “I want you to remember our wedding this time. So no drinks for you until the honeymoon, my doll.”
Oh, Did I mention we have here gathered for a pre–wedding dinner rehearsal?
Yes. Tomorrow is the big day.
I take a deep breath as I step into the lavishly decorated dining room. It’s adorned with flowers and soft candlelight.
“You okay?” Lena asks and I turn to her.
“I think so,” I say, glancing at my reflection in the decorative mirror across the room. I have gained some weight. I am still conscious, but Miles seems super into me nowadays… so I guess it’s a win?
I just want to stay stagnant at this weight. It looks good enough.
“How do I look?” I ask anyway.
“Like a perfect bride,” she whispers into my ear.
“Yup! Gorgeous as always,” Jake says as he gives me a side hug.
Lena and Jake are here for the wedding. They are managing my music company really well in New York. After everything that happened, I couldn’t find strength to go to that city again. Oh. It’s not my music company anymore. I am only a board member now.
“So… what are our plans after the wedding? Will you go for a honeymoon or just to some board meeting?” Lena teases and I roll my eyes.
After everything that happened, the physical and emotional recovery took quiet some time. Honestly, we are still affected. My relationship with Miles grew stronger, but the wedding itself was planned barely three weeks ago… When Miles proposed to me out of the blue on a short holiday trip.
I glance at the ring on my finger and smile. Oh God… this is really happening.
“We have some plans in mind. And our plans are not conventional,” I tell her and she winks.
“If you are gonna take part in some sex club activities. I would love to join you two.”

“What about me?” Jake teases and I snort.
“Tuck off. Both of you.”
Because the plan was so sudden, Lena couldn’t come to me sooner. And nor did we discuss many wedding plans. It’s a small wedding event.
We are busy bickering as I hear Jake say, “There he is.”
1 look up and spot Miles strolling inside, looking handsome in his tailored suit. Our eyes meet and he flashes me at reassuring smile. We walk towards the table where our families are to be seated.
His family. From my side, only dad and Uncle Orin are invited to this dinner.
Miles slips his arm around my waist and pulls me into his embrace.
“Hello beautiful…”
“Hey…” I say, breathlessly.
“Are you okay?”
No.
“Yes…”
He squints his eyes at me and pulls me towards a room.
“What happened?” He asks as he holds my chin and brings his face closer.
“Don’t kiss me. You will ruin my makeup.”
He grins as he gives me a quick peck.
“Tell me.”
I shrug. “It’s just nervousness. As if something will go wrong. I’m unable to feel happiness because I’m still afraid.”
He nods. Anxiety still cripples me sometimes.
“Close your eyes and take a deep–deep breath,” Miles says as he places his forehead against mine. “I am here. Raylan is here, if that matters.”
I chuckle. Now we have a security team trailing around us all the time. Poor Miles has no privacy either. The kidnapping incident blew both our faces in the media real.hard. And they dug out histories to squish the juiciest
details.
After holding each other in our arms for a few minutes, we walk towards the dining table again.
“Looks like we are early,” Miles says as we take a seat.

“We sure are…”
One by one, Miles‘ parents and his family members arrive. The dining room becomes livelier. I watch as his mother, Ada, enters the room. I have met her a few times. She is a lovely woman. I am looking forward to building my relationship with her.
When she met me in the hospital room, she recognized me immediately. Apparently, we had met in the hotel lobby briefly. Which again I don’t remember. No wonder Miles teases me to take memory supplements. Miles‘ father follows, a distinguished man with a confident attitude. Isha and Noah stroll inside and greet us with wide smiles.
We spent the last few months getting to know each other. Miles and I took my time to bond with Isha. She has lived a hard life. Just like me, she had an unloving mother. Isha’s news hasn’t hit the media yet. Because she wanted to keep it private. She is taking her time to accept the Miller family.
“Avery, you look absolutely stunning!” Noah exclaims as he pulls me into a hug.
I grin as I hug him back. He is doing this to annoy Miles. So sometimes I tag along.
“Thank you. You don’t look bad either.”

He was in a coma for almost two months and his family didn’t pull the plug. After waking up, he is still recovering. I fucking hope becomes handicapped or something. But that didn’t happen either.
