Chapter 129
Ella
If someone had magically told me that I was officially getting married I would have told them to shut the fuck up and slammed a door within their face. Yet after last night’s big event I really, really couldn’t.
As last night’s surprise was utterly mind blowing to say the least.
Reece, Dylan and Caleb each surprising me with a beautiful dinner. A dinner that was prepared by Reece himself while Kris on the other hand had continued to lead me down the mysterious isle of rose petals until I was carefully brought to a room.
A room I soon figured out as I move to see candles elegantly staged around the room. Each one place in a specific spot so as not to cause a fire as my eyes move to spot a singular table meant for 4.
The table elegantly done in silver and gold along with beautiful white china. Clear crystal glasses also arranged elegantly along the table as Kris moves to guide me further into the room. A ballroom of sorts.
A room I didn’t know even existed until now as it was currently decorated for something grand. A big, something grand. My stomach still in knots even as Kris moved to spin me around so that my back was now facing the table.
Her eyes on mine even as she moves to distract me and my ever growing emotions. Not wanting me to see what was behind me until it was time. Her eyes shining at what was about to happen tonight. My voice shaky as I try to speak to her directly.
“Kris…”
“Easy girl. They got you. Trust me. And if they don’t, then me and my men will personally kick their ass’s. But for now, relax, and remember this is all about you tonight and no one else.”
Then with that said did Kris move to hug me before giving me a kiss along my cheek before moving to leave the room. Kris closing the door as she did. My body now in a room all by itself or so I thought until Reece moved to speak.
“You look amazing Stellina.”
Upon hearing his voice do I carefully move to turn around. My feet careful so as not to trip as I ever so slowly move to turn myself around only to gasp. Reece, Dylan and Caleb all dressed in gorgeous black suits or maybe it was tuxes, either way they couldn’t have looked more perfect to me.
Each looking devilishly handsome in a way that screamed money and power. Each of them quick in complimenting my gown while I them. Not wanting them to think I didn’t love or appreciate them and what they’ve done.
My eyes shining with unshed tears even as I continued to watch each of my men. My men each watching the other until Reece finally speaks again. His voice full of love and affection. A tone that was only reserved for me.
“Stellina, words alone can not explain to you on how we truly feel about you. Yet being with you makes the whole world feel bigger and brighter than most.”
“For you are our light. A light within our never ending sea of darkness. A light in a world where people can be vicious and cruel. A world we’ve known since we were very young” adds Caleb, his voice also warm.
My heart still racing even as I continue to listen. Dylan the next one to speak up among the three of them. “Stellina, you are our reason for living. Our star to cherish. A star we knew we would need almost 10 years ago. And while some might think it’s weird or strange, we on the other hand did not. For you, Stellina are our home.”
“Dylan…” I whisper. My voice shaking even as I try not to cry. Their words hitting me far more than they should. My pregnancy hormones always the cause behind the tears.
Reece and his brothers all moving to glance at one another before dropping to one knee. Each of them in total sync of the other even as I move to watch them kneel before me. Grown men who I once had the pleasure of knowing, of growing up with as a child. Men who always protected me and believed in me when things got tough. Men who I couldn’t stand to be without, each kneeling without a care in the world.
My hands slowly moving to cup my lips as I continued to stand where I was. The butterflies I had been feeling now racing within me as the tears I tried holding back now fall. My men about to do something I could only ever dream about or read within fantasy books.
Reece quick in reaching into his jacket pocket as both he along with Dylan and Caleb each move to pull out a box. A small velvety box as they each move to open it.
My eyes quick in spotting 3 beautiful bands. One in which held the only ring to ever exist, the 59.6 cart, pink star diamond. The worlds most vivid pink diamond to ever exist and it was here, sitting within Reece’s hand as he continued to kneel before me.
Diamond bands currently sitting within Caleb and Dylan’s box. Accent rings if you would as the pink star diamond was impressive all on it’s own. My body soon shaking. Shocked at what they were about to do.
“Reece… Dylan… Caleb… I…”
“Stellina, please do us the honor of being our wife. Our Queen. Our Princess.”
“But I’m Russian… it’s forbidden.”
“Says who?”
“James”
At the mention of both James and Nicholas do each of them growl. “Fuck them Ella. Your not just Russian. Your half Russian. Your other half is Irish” replies Dylan, not liking the fact I considered myself anything other than that.
Silence soon filling the air. Neither of us moving nor saying anything that could possibly change the outcome of what was currently happening. Reece, Dylan and Caleb each still upon their knees even as they continued to wait patiently for my reply. My heart still racing as if it was ready to jump directly out of my chest.
My eyes still on them. My mind officially made up as I move to give them my answer.
“Yes! Oh God YES! Of course I’ll marry you!”
And with that said I move to hold out my hand. Dylan the first in sliding his band along my finger followed by Reece and the pink star diamond followed by Caleb. Caleb being the last one to slide his ring along my finger as each ring sat neatly upon my finger in away that made it look like one.
Caleb quick in scooping me into his arms before spinning me around. A giggle rising as I move to cling to him gently. Caleb and I soon sharing a kiss followed by Reece and then Dylan. The nerves and butterflies suddenly gone.
My thoughts now back on the present. For while last night had been magical, today started something new. The long and tortuous planning. A part of me wondering if I could just hire someone to do it all for me so I wouldn’t have to stress. A stress that didn’t bold well for someone who was 32 weeks along. Nor did I need to go into premature labor before my actual wedding.
