"Zak… I can always take her home."Caleb finally spoke out and Mariah’s heart leaped for joy.He was going to help her.
"Home?Where?Your home?"Caleb nodded."Caleb this is her fucking home.She won't be going anywhere."
"She obviously doesn't consider it her home."Caleb was really doing this.
"Too fucking bad.Like I give a flying fuck what she wants."
"You’re going to continue to leave her here making her miserable as hell while you get married?For fucks sake man, she's had enough."Mariyah’s heart hurt, Caleb would always be her brother first and foremost.
"I'll continue to leave her here for as long as I fucking have to.The sooner she accepts it the better.I'm seriously over her fucking sulking.She will learn to get over it."
Mariyah felt so bad for her brother.He stood up and nodded his head at the asshole.
"All good…" Caleb was smart in the sense that he knew when to walk away and now was the time.Mariyah wanted to weep for her brother.She knew it was a no win situation for the both of them.You do not fuck with one like Zak Michaels.
Olivia’s phone went off and she left to take it in private leaving Mariyah and Zak alone.
"Happy?”Zak asked her quietly.She scoffed at his question before she replied.
"Ecstatic.”She said dryly.
"That mouth Mariyah, that mouth of yours…”
CHAPTER 23
The next few weeks and it was all about the wedding.Everything about the wedding… She was apparently going as well."No, No way in hell am I going to go and watch you and that you know what exchange vows.No way."
"It doesn't matter what you want Mari.You will be there."
"Who want's me at the fucking wedding?Zak your killing me here.I can't handle seeing you marry her, please."
"Mariyah enough!Just get on board with it… You need a dress?"
And so it was, Zak actually took her to find a dress.It was so fucked up… He wanted to buy her a dress for his fucking wedding!
The lady at the overpriced shop was ever so helpful, she was going to make a sale worth thousands of dollars.Mariyah didn't want to try anything on and was being extremely difficult.Zak sat patiently but by the end of it he told the shop owner to move aside.
"You will chose a fucking dress and try it on or I will personally strip you and put the dress on you.Trust me I don't want to be here so hurry the fuck up."
"These dresses cost an absurd amount of money, I can't find the logic in spending that much on a dress that I'm never going to wear again."
"Fuck that."Zak grabbed her and threw her over his shoulder, he took her into the change room."Strip."She had noticed a horrified looking Clarissa.
"Okay fine, I'll try on the white one."Zak got his way.Mariyah tried on the dress and gasped at it's beauty.It was a fitting dress and had two long splits on either side of the dress.The top half of the dress was donned with crystals and beading.It was a straight cut with no straps or sleeves.Just enough cleavage was visible, nothing too revealing but very sexy.She quickly took the dress off and returned to her jeans and tee shirt.
When Mariyah came out holding the dress Zak eyed her out."It's fine."
"Thank god.Clarissa please match the accessories and shoes for her."Mariyah sat and chose what she wanted.While Zak was on the phone Mariyah eyed out a diamond ring, it was immaculate, she asked Clarissa how much something like that would cost and when she said over one million dollars, Mariyah almost fell off the stool.She declined the offer to try it on.
The necklace, Zak chose for her, when she saw it her heart dropped.It was real diamonds and had matching earrings.Mariyah said she didn't like them and Zak said he'll take them.When that experience was over, Mariyah almost fainted at the price, it was almost sixty thousand dollars.
"That's ridiculous, how can you spend and absurd amount of money on..."
"On what?On you?"She nodded.
"I'm not a whore."
"If you were you'd be a very expensive one at that."
