Secretly Mine

The moment we came home, my mother began ordering the servants around. "Mom, is Christian coming over for dinner tonight?" asked Morgan. She was twirling her hair with her finger, staring hopefully at our Mother.

"Yes. He is, along with a few others, so behave. Although it’s soon, you’re not officially engaged yet, so be mindful of your actions", my mother replied.

I quietly took a few steps back, hoping to sneak away to my room.

"Leslie, wear that black dress today, the fitted one with black lace sleeves", she said, turning towards me.

My eyes widened. She hated that dress! It had a very deep V-neck and was very tightly fit, accentuating the curves of my body.

"No, I’ll send a dress over for you. You’re already getting engaged—no need to look too enticing. Leslie, on the other hand..." My mother turned to me with a look that sent a shiver down my spine.

Who else is coming tonight?!

But before I even had a chance to ask about the other guests, my Mother quickly dismissed us.
