The alarm in Calista's room blared out loud, waking her from deep sleep. Heaving a sigh, she sat on the bed with a racing heart. Orion was taking her to see his family and he was going to introduce her to them as his wife.
She didn't know what to expect even though he had told her some things about them. She just had a feeling that the visit wouldn't go well. She would have preferred if their marriage remained a secret until it was dissolved, but that wasn't up to her to decide.
"Which parent will be excited to hear their child had a secret wedding? What could be his reason?" she wondered.
She walked slowly to her wardrobe after having a warm bath and picked the dress Orion had instructed her to wear. It didn't look bad as she admired herself in the mirror.
As they stood in front of the house after pressing the doorbell, Calista's heart raced even more.
