Fated Hearts

CHAPTER 7: Wedding Night Preparation

ANNIE'S POV

We arrived home safely after Tae's departure. [sigh] I wondered what the night held for us. I felt a tingle down my spine just at the thought.

I was snapped out of my fantasy when Mrs. Choi called me softly,"Good darling come here."

I slowly made my way towards her still feeling shy.

"So," she started slowly.

"Tonight's your wedding night and i know you feel excited."

I nodded a blush slowly creeping up my face.

"As per our family tradition, you'll spend your first night here." My now Mother-in-law slowly emphasized.

"Don't worry, nothing to be worried about. It's not that I don't trust you but it's to ensure the first heir is ours." Mrs. Choi said slowly.

I felt an unknown grief welling in my heart.

Even in a sham marriage I'm not trusted! [sigh]

"Don't get me wrong dear, tradition just can't be helped." She continued.

I bit down hard on my lips trying to restrain the tears from escaping, as I nodded absentmindedly.

"Come, come dear, let's make you breathtaking for tonight."

I followed her closely behind as she dragged me slowly into the house.

We walked through endless halls and fleeting stairs, finally reaching her home.

She closed the door with a soft click as she turned her attention towards me.

"Come dear." She said walking closer to me.

She helped me out of my dress as I tried to cover my nakedness.

"Hahahaha, nothing to hide dear I'm also a woman." She commented heartily.

"Coming to think of it, my son really hit the jackpot on this one. Curvaceous, cute and pretty, hmmm, you're making me doubt my sexuality."

I turned beet red at the compliment nervously trying to cover myself with my hands.

"C'mon dear,loosen up, the real party's about to start." She stated, dragging me to her spacious bathroom.

She prepared a hot tub full of roses and sprinkled a pink substance inside- something I didn't know.

"Come," she warmly invited.

Stepping into the tub, I felt my muscles relax as the heat engulfed me wrapping around me like a second skin.

My Mom wore me a pink facial while softly massaging with a device.

I slowly drifted to dream land as mom's hands worked their magic.

Five minutes into it, I heard her sweet voice calling,"Wake up dear, we're all done." She said gently shaking me awake.

I woke up groggily eyes still droopy from sleep.

"Haha, come you cute little thing let's get you dressed up."

I came out of the bathtub, my vision slowly clearing as my feet touched the cold marble floor.

She sat me down on her bed after giving me a towel to dry myself.

She brought out a peach see through lace nightgown after minutes of ransacking the closet.

I choked on my saliva imagining Tae's reaction when he'd see me in the nightgown.

"Darling what's wrong?" Mrs. Choi rushed to my side grabbing a glass of milk on her vanity then giving it to me.

I gulped it down without a second thought not noticing it was laced.

"I'm okay ma." I reassured giving her my best smile.

"Okay then, slip on this dress I promise Taehyung won't take his eyes off you after seeing you in this dress." Mom said convincingly.

Ecstatic yet nervous, i tried on the dress and Oh My Goodness, it clung to my curves like a second skin.

I twirled in the dress feeling happy yet shy.

The dress did nothing to cover my protruding n*****s and i raised the concern to Ma.

"Ummm,Mom" I started slowly.

"Yes darling." She replied ecstatically.

"The dress..." I continued trailing off as I motioned to my bust.

She chuckled saying," Darling nothing to be shy about, it's your wedding night not a one night stand, besides, he'll still see all these tonight." She stated winking at me.

"Okay one last thing." She said showering me with a very scented yet sweet perfume.

"Go darling and ravagé his heart." Mrs. Choi said giving me a final nudge while clicking the door shut behind her.

I rearranged my hair in the mirror outside her room letting the hair rest on my neck.

I stood nervously outside her room not knowing where to go.

"Oh sorry darling." Her voice rang out.

"Fourth floor, second room by the right, good luck." She said, the hall slowly returning to silence.
