To Hate My Stepbrother

Chapter 185



Ava’s POV

A day before the wedding, Nicole, my mum and some other women from work and school and we all decided to have a girls night out.

It was so fun and I just couldn’t believe that I’ll be getting married this soon. I know that I was the one who couldn’t wait to be married but I also didn’t think it would get here so soon.

“The new bride seem to be having cold feet.” Nicole, who, nothing could easily get past, noticed and announced it to the group of women who burst out laughing.

“It’s not like that, it’s just that on one hand I can’t wait to be married to Mason, I mean, he’s everything but also it’s so damn scary that my wedding is tomorrow!” I added and the room fell silent.

I could tell that the married one in the group knew what I was talking about, especially Nicole and my mother.

“I understand and I’m going to admit that it does get a little scary especially since the wedding is so near,” my mother started and I heaved out a heavy breath as I stared at her when she took my hand.

“It’s almost like knowing you’d enjoy spending the rest of your life with this one person but also the thought of it is scary sometimes.” She added and I could immediately relate to what she was talking about.

“You’re happy about it, you’re just a little bit scared which you’re allowed to be but trust me you’ll get over it.” Nicole cut in and I had no idea that tears were already welling in my eyes until I tasted my tears.

The room soon started getting filled with a lot of emotions as they all started giving speeches and marriage tips to me.

Soon, we stopped talking and resorted to playing sex-related games, lots of questions were asked and although I was too shy to answer most of them I made sure I enjoyed myself while playing the game.

We finished the game and decided to watch a movie after which we all decided that it was soon time to go to bed but not without Nicole’s speech.

“I’ve known Ava for years and she’s just that one girl that anyone with her in their lives is extremely lucky to have her and Ava, I am really glad to have you as my best friend. Thank you for always being here even when I got married and barely have enough time,” she smiled and I could feel the sting in my eyes.

Gosh, am I really supposed to be this emotional?

Nicole finished her speech and handed me my pre-wedding gift as she made a toast to years of growing friendship and sisterhood.

Everyone was a little tired and soon, they all went to sleep but I wasn’t feeling sleepy. It felt as though my eyes should be opened till my wedding day.

Sneaking out of the room to the hotel balcony, I called Mason and we both decided to meet in secret.

I knew I was going to see him tomorrow and for the rest of my entire life but for now, I miss him so much and really wanted to see him.

Picking up the gift I intended to give him, I set out to meet Mason at the lobby of the hotel as we’d both earlier agreed upon and there he was, waiting for me.

“Hey baby.” I called as we both shared a kiss and letting out a sigh, I handed Mason my gift and he did the same but we’d both agreed to not open our gifts until we weren’t with each other.

Mason and I decided to have Ice cream as we watched the stars together, “How was the girl’s night out?” He asked and I laughed as I tucked a chunk of my hair beside my ear.

“It was fun, really, we did a lot of crazy things and you know how women are with their tips and all of that?” I laughed as I told Mason about our girls’ night.Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

“How was the dude’s night out?” I asked before bursting into laughter, “it even sounds funny when I say it.” I teased him before listening as he told me everything about their night out.

It was fun, really fun doing all these things and I seriously can’t wait for tomorrow to be finally called Mason’s wife.

“Your last name will really sound sexy just so close to my name,” I groaned as I spoke, “gosh, I’m having these tingles.” I laughed as Mason held me.

“I can’t wait too.” He whispered in my ear as he kissed my hair before resting on my shoulders and I closed my eyes for a while before remembering that I had something to tell him.

“Mason,” I called, “I invited Xander as a friend, you know. Is that okay with you?” I asked and he smiled as he turned me to face him.

“It’s fine with me since you’re mine to keep now.” He agreed as we both turned back to keep our gaze fixed on the stars, laughing and talking about a lot of things.

Danny got out of his room and met Mason and I together, Mason had thought he was asleep and wouldn’t be coming outside tonight.

“What are you both doing together?” He asked with a raised eyebrow, “don’t you know it’s bad luck for the bride and groom to see each other before the wedding?” He added and I rolled my eyes at the superstition.

“Who cares about that?” Mason laughed as he pulled me closer into him to kiss me.

“You know what, you don’t have to spite me with your beautiful bride, Mason.” Danny shot at his son, making me laugh as I pulled away.

Danny went back in and soon came back outside with alcohol and snuck it to Mason like I couldn’t see it.

“You have my permission to drink until you drop dead.” He laughed before going back inside.
