Roman's point of view:

I walked inside Loana's room after being dressed up for the wedding. 

"Hey, latest bride in town" I said as I walked towards her.

"What's up, man?" She looked at me through the mirror.

"You look so beautiful. You are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my entire life" I told her.

"I am not flattered because you always tell me that. '' She smiled at me. I finally got in front of her and sat on the dressing mirror. She is already dressed in her wedding dress. Her face is baked up by cosmetics.

"That's not a lie" I told her.

"I hope my husband is as romantic as you are"she said as she pulled my cheek. I slapped her hand away.

"Don't you dare pull my cheeks, I am not Lev" I glared at her.

"Shut the fuck up" she said.

"Just inform me if anything is bothering you. If he dares touch you in any immoral way. I am always ready to fight. So please always call me if anything is up. And I am sorry that I had to drag you into this mess" I told her sincerely.

"It's okay. We like each other so you don't have to worry. You should be the one to work towards your relationship. Treat her well. And should I tell you something. She is damn beautiful" She lectured.

"She can't be as beautiful as you are"

"Meet her first" She said.

"Fine, but there won't be anything between us. I can't fall in love with her. I don't want anything to happen between us so the divorce will be easy to process" I told her.

"Just be good to her" she advised me.

"It's time to go" My mom said as she peeked through the room.

"I have to go" I pecked her. I took one of her brushes and dug it inside a black thing in a container. 

"What the fuck are you d..?" I rubbed her brush on her face.

"You ruined my makeup" I ran out of her room.

"Hey Mom" I said to her as I saw her in the hallway.

"The cars are ready" my mom said.

The wedding is being held in Alexei's mansion.

"Okay, let's go then" I told her.

"Roman, I am not happy about their marriages." My mom said.

"Don't worry, mom. It will turn out nice, okay?" I assured her.

"I always wanted to like the girl you are going to marry and make her my own child but how will I bring myself to like this one? It's not possible" I hugged her.

"Don't worry, I will divorce as soon as the problems are solved" I told her.

I released her from the hug. She nodded at me.

"You look so beautiful mom, you are the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on." I pecked her and left the hallway.

Irina's point of view:

"You look so beautiful even without makeup" Sarah said.

Here I am on the chair waiting for Mom to tell me it's time for the wedding. I am getting married to a man I don't even know. I have accepted my faith and I am okay with it.

"It is time" my mom entered my room.

"Irina, no water what. Always be strong. I might not have been the best mom but please note that I have always wished for the best for you. I love you." My mom kissed my forehead.

"Let's go" Sarah interrupted our little moment.

"Your gown looks beautiful" my mom complimented.

"Thank you" I said as I stood up.

"Why didn't you make up for her?" My mom asked Sarah. 

"She told the makeup artist that she doesn't want any cosmetics on her face" Sarah told my mom.

"Just let's go. It's my wish, mom" I walked towards the door. I opened the door to see Dad patiently waiting for me.

"Hey, you ready?" My dad asked me as he opens his arms for me to put my arm.

"Of course" I told him.

I put my hand in his and he walked me to the altar.

***

I looked at the man I am about to marry. He is so handsome and built. He looks so handsome, hot and scary. He never for once smiled at me. I focused on looking at him as dad walked me on to the stage. 

I felt glares thrown at me at the crowd but I didn't lose focus, instead I stared at my soon to be husband.

I finally got to him. My dad handed my hand over to him which he took and nodded to the signal my dad did to him.

He held my hand as I walked on the alter. 

I almost muttered but I chose not to.

The minister, Ruslan and Loana are already there. The minister started with them, after exchanging vows, the minister faced us.

"Do you Roman Atono take Irina Alexei as your legally married wife?" The minister asked.

Roman faced me and stared at me for a while before answering him with 

'I do'

"Do you Irina Alexei take Roman Atono as your legally married husband?" He asked me.

"I do" I answered as I looked at my husband.

"It's done. I announce you as husband and wife. You can now take your bride home" he said. 

We walked down the altar to the Lamborghini parked at the entrance of the garden. I felt daggers again from the crowd. I looked at the crowd to see frowns on people's faces. They didn't hide the fact that they hate me. I hope I have gotten married to the wrong family.

My husband opened the door of the car for me to enter. What a gentleman! I entered the door, the back seat. He closed the door gently.

That's it, there is no wedding reception. So peachy.

But I am so excited that I will get out of this mansion today. All my life,I have been in this house. I have seen things that have been going on outside to the extent that I will go out. But today, right now. This very car will pass through that gigantic gate and I will witness how life is after that gate.

He entered the other side and the driver drove off.
