Married To A Powerful Domineering Billionaire

Reunion:

RAYNE’S POV

Finally the day I’ve long awaited was here.

I got up with a joy filled soul as I danced around happily.

Today I get to be officially wedded to Eric again. It was surreal.

Everything was being set in my room, the makeup artist set up his tools and the fashion designers showed Elaina and Ann jewelries to pick for me.

I got into the bathroom to take a shower so we could get ready with due procedures. I didn’t want to waste any more time.

After some minutes I got out tying a bath white robe as I sat down before the mirror so the hairstylist could commence on beautifying my hair.

“Rayne do you want shady blue or you’d rather go with the normal one?” Eliana asked me.

“The normal one.” I replied to her with a smile on my face.

“Good day Ma’am, I’d like you to choose a hairstyle.” The hairstylist said to me,

I looked at the samples she gave to me but I was a bit confused. Everything seemed so good to me. I didn’t even know which one to choose amongst them. They look so good.

“Just do something that will match with the dress.” I said to her finally not knowing what to choose. Since she is the hairstylist, she’d know which one that would fit me. Hair Stylists always know, it’s like magic to them.

“Okay.” She simply replied and got started.

I didn’t want to move as I watched her do her magic on my hair.

After some minutes she was done and the hair was pretty good. Looking at what she did to my hair, words fail me to describe it. It was perfect, very perfect and I smiled at the hair stylist as she left.

It was time for the makeup artist.

The makeup artist started gently by wiping off my face before commencing on his work. It took a long time but not that much. I still my face so that I wouldn’t ruin the make-up.

“Oh my God Rayne you look amazingly beautiful.” Eliana gasped immediately when she saw the work of the makeup artist. I saw the surprise on her face, I hope to get more than that reaction from Eric once he sees me. And with that thought I was eager.

I know, right? I didn’t even know I could look more beautiful. I thought as I chuckled lightly.

“Does it fit me?” I asked while staring at everyone blankly. I wanted to hear their own opinion about it.

“Rayne you look like a goddess, yes it does fit you!.” Ann complimented me. I smiled widely at that.

“I must say the makeup artist sure knows what he is doing.” Eliana commented. I giggled at that.

“We bring the best services to our customers ma’am, we’re the best.” The blonde haired guy replied.

I think he is gay as his actions, words and movements were feminine but that wasn’t my business. He did a perfect job.

“We picked this dress for you.” Elaina said as she handed me the wedding gown so I could go try it on.

I was done preparing and everything was set. Elaina and Ann had helped me and I loved every minute of it. Having them in my life was a blessing in disguise.

I got into the car which was taking me to the church, Eric was in another car. According to their family doctrine we should only meet at the aisle.

The car arrived at the church a few minutes later and the driver helped me down.

It was time for me to walk down the aisle. I looked around and there was Eric walking up to me.

“Eric.” I was excited that I’m seeing him.

“May I?” he asked as he stretched forth his hand and I took it in.

Together hand in hand we walked down the aisle. We walked in and the crowd screamed and cheered at us. I could see Bianca, Sarah, Eliana and Ann sitting down on the other side.

Mrs Lawn’s and grand Mrs Lawn’s on the other side.

The crowd was more than I expected. What should I say? I was getting married to one of the famous Billionaire CEOs. I should expect more.

Soon the cheering died down everywhere, became very quiet and the priest proceeded.

“Are you prepared as you follow the path of marriage to love and honor each other for as long as you both shall live?” The priest asked.

“I’m prepared.” Eric answered while looking me in the eyes, I felt lost in those eyes.

“I’m prepared.” I replied with a smile of my own.

“Now let us humbly invoke God’s blessings on this bride and groom, that in his kindness he may favor and with his help those on whom he had bestowed the sacrament of holy matrimony.” The priest announced.

“Repeat after me.” the priest said, referring to me.

“I Rayne Edwards take Erickson Arnold to be my lovely wedded husband for this day forward, in sickness and in health for richer and for poorer, for better and for worse  to love and to cherish till death do us part.” the priest said and I repeated what he said. I mean why wouldn’t I? After everything I have gone through.

He turned to Eric and did the same thing.

“Repeat after me, I…..”

“I, Erickson Arnold, take Rayne Edwards to be my lovely wedded wife, In sickness and in health, for richer and for poorer, for better and for worse, to love, Cherish and care for you till death do us part.” Eric said, cutting the priest shut as he stared into my soul. It was as if he was seeing my soul.

I could feel my tears wanting to fall but I held it, I really wished my mum was here. It could have been a joyous thing to see her little girl standing at the altar today. I know she and my dad will be watching it wherever they’re.

“You have declared your consent before the Church, may the Lord in his goodness strengthen your consent and fill you both with his blessings, what God has joined men must not divide.” The priest announced.

“In the sight of God and these witnesses I now pronounce you husband and wife, you may now kiss your bride.” The priest declared and without hesitation Eric took my veil off and buried his tongue in mine which I quickly gave him access into my mouth.

“I love you.” He said immediately he pulled from the kiss. “Now, tomorrow and always.”

“I love you too Eric.” I replied to him and he kissed me again.

Soon everything was over and it was time for the marriage occasion which Elaiana and Ann suggested to be a good idea.

This was going to be a long day.

Epilogue:

SEVEN YEARS LATER

“Common Xavier put that down.” I scolded my son.

“Who wants cookies for breakfast?” Eric asked as he came out of the kitchen.

“I want one Daddy!” Xavier shouted.

“I want two.” Piper said, raising her hands up signaling two.

“You get one cookie.” Erick said, handing the cookie to Xavier.

“And you get two cookies.” He said to Piper.

“And the baby gets the rest of them.” He said teasingly.

“How many cookies does the baby want?”

Eric asked me dramatically as he bent over and placed his head on my Tommy. I was already Eight months pregnant.

“The baby wants five cookies.” I replied to him.

“Mummy the baby is being greedy.” Piper said while pouting her mouth and we both laughed.

“Ann came back yesterday, the family is having a reunion dinner tonight, do you mind coming along?” Eric said.

“Of Course I will.” I replied to him and he nodded before walking off to the kitchen.

Bianca had a baby already and she resides in Canada with her husband and her manager runs her business now.

Sarah has been out of the country for a long time now and nobody had heard of her.

Eliana just got married not quite long and now Ann is back, she’s been out to finish her studies.

I sighed in satisfaction as I looked at my babies playing on the floor.

This was the life I had always prayed for to get married to someone that understood and would stand by me, although it was tough at the beginning but with time the burden became less.

The beautiful family we’ve created and dropped the past behind.

I perceived something, that seemed like something was burning.

“Honey, I think I blew off the oven.” Eric said with his face covered in smoke.

“You never get to do anything right.” I teased him as I got up to help him.Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

And maybe the family I came from wasn’t that perfect but I managed to make mine suitable for me.

I am going to live a great life.
