Sonia.
I was completely dumbfounded the moment my eyes landed on the guard standing beside me, still dressed in the red ceremonial robe and shoes.
My breath caught instantly.
Because the one who had just lifted my veil…was him and not Noah.
For a second, my mind went completely blank, struggling to process the humiliation burning through me.
The audacity.
My fingers curled slowly beneath my sleeves as disbelief crashed violently against my chest.
Was Noah insane?
Did he truly think this was some kind of joke?
After everything I had done to make this wedding happen…
After every single thing I sacrificed just to stand here today as his bride…
This was what he chose to do to me?
I slowly closed my eyes, trying to steady the rage and shock threatening to consume me alive.
And unwillingly, my mind drifted back to everything that had happened before today.
Everything I had done to get here.
