Chapter 1

It was a fine day and Eleanora was happy that she had successfully slipped out without her mother knowing to come and enjoy the sweet breeze at her backyard. She was sat on a recliner chair, nose stuck in the page of a romance novel she had borrowed from the local library just yesterday.

The words on the page danced before her eyes, transporting her to a world of love and adventure. Lost in the pages of the novel, Eleanora could feel the warmth of sunlight on her skin and hear the faint chirping of birds nearby, the gentle breeze caressing her face, adding an extra layer of enchantment to her reading experience.

With each turn of a page from the steamy book, time seemed to stand still.The characters coming alive in Eleanora's mind, their emotions echoing within her as if they were old friends.

Every word seemed to paint vivid pictures in her imagination - lush gardens, passionate embraces, and tearful goodbyes and In that tranquil moment It was as though she had stepped into another dimension where love reigned supreme, Eleanora felt a sense of freedom because for once, she was not bound by reality but instead embraced by a world filled with passion and desire.

As she sat there, engrossed in the pages of that borrowed captivating novel, Her mother's voice pierced through the tranquil air. "Don't just sit there and read books Eleanora," she exclaimed with frustration. "Come out and help with the decorations! It's your sister's wedding for crying out loud." Reluctantly, Eleanora closed the book, not before marking her place in the book and begrudgingly rising from the cozy chair to join the preparations.

The wedding wasn't a grand one, but it wasn't a small one either. So it still required a great effort, seeing as her sister was marrying the mayor's son. Alot of big personalities were going to be present there -- including her father's boss and his family-- so her mother expected the wedding to go through without flaws.

"Excuse me." Eleanora said in a sing-song tone as she rounded a corner that lead to the venue, which was just few walks beside her house, a big open field. it was owned by her father's employer. it was mostly used for events in their town.

Walking into the beautifully decorated venue, She was immediately captivated by the vibrant colours and elegant arrangements, the aroma of fresh flowers and sweet pastries filling the air. Every detail had been meticulously planned - from the exquisite centerpieces to the flowery patterned cloth on each table.

The tables were set elegantly with fine china and shimmering silverware, each place card carefully arranged to ensure everyone felt important on this momentous occasion.

She really didn't know what her mother wanted her to do again because as far as she saw, the decorations were already beautifully and neatly done.

She then proceeded to go inside and check on the bride. it was her day after all so she couldn't blame her for taking her time to get ready. People had already started to fill the place and her father by now was already greeting some of the guest.

None of her sisters were anywhere to be seen so she assumed they were all inside with Sonia-- Her eldest sister and also the bride.

Going to stand close to her father who looked at her with a displeased look but didn't make any comment, they both greeted the guest together.

If you hadn't already noticed, Eleanora was a daddy's girl, her father never scolded her, even when she made mistakes nor did he today when she was dressed in a light pink satin dress which completely contrast with the blue and grey with a touch of green - the original colour code- everyone else had on.

"Congratulations Mr Wright." A man that was handsome even at his age walked towards them before stretching out his hand to shake her father's.

"Thank you sir, we really appreciate your presence." Her father replied shaking his hands firmly with both of his hands.

The man looked to be in his late fifties. there was strands of silver on his black shinning hair that was slicked back. He was dressed in a grey suit which made his grey eyes stand out and a white dress shirt that had the first button undone, he looked fit and the way he talked eludes authority and grace.

This must be Mr Hughes, her father's boss, Eleanora thought. She has never seen him before, all she knew was that he was the owner of the large field beside their house.

"Andrew." Mr Wright nodded his head at another man that looked to be no more than twenty five. His face was neatly shaved also with his hair, just like his father, he had jet black hair and instead of the slick hairstyle his father carried, he was in a quiff haircut. Same grey eyes as his father but he had little Asian features which had a nice touch to his handsome face. He had on a light blue dress shirt which he folded at the sleeves and undid three buttons. His grey pants was fitted and ironed neatly.

"Hello Mr Wright, congratulations." Andrew smiled, showing his pearly white teeth as he shook her father's hands. "Hi." he waved at Eleanora with a smile as she smiled back with her own "hello."

"This is my fourth daughter, Eleanora." Mr Wright introduced as he lightly pushed her forward.

"Hello sir." Eleanora smiled before moving her gaze to Andrew who smiled back at her.

"Hello dear." Mr Hughes smiled, nodding at her.

"Uhm, where is Luca?" Her father suddenly asked looking around.

"oh, he came with us, he should be somewhere around." Andrew replied as the three of them looked around.

Luca must be Andrew's brother, Eleanora thought as she looked around with them.

"I'm right here." A deep voice sounded beside her as she turns to see the source, and that source immediately takes her breath away and all Eleanora could think about was---  He's beautiful.
