The charity gala
10:15pm
-Amelia's pov-
As soon as I entered the hall I saw Damien walking towards me with smiles, soon the gala officially begun.
we all took our seats according to arrangements, then Mrs Sandra woods (Damien's mom) walked up the stage - tonight we celebrate fashion and charity, let the auction begin
people began bidding, Damien nodded on an emerald bangle which he bought at 5 million the auction lasted for 10 minutes before everyone went for refreshment.
I stood beside the wine table when alpha Roland Damien's godfather I learnt from him walked up to me " Amelia, your designs are stunning and impressive I'll give you a $20,000 featuring them in my daughter's upcoming birthday gala. I smiled considering the offer, Thank you alpha Roland I'll think about it.
Not long he left Damien's father alpha king James approached me - my son speaks highly of you and your talent, I'll offer you a $50,000 for your designs in our packs upcoming gala. my eyes widened, surprised by the second offer.
I smiled graciously and accepts his offer
I accept alpha king thank you, my designs will shine brightly and beautiful at your charity gala. he nods his head satisfied with the answer I gave him. Excellent choice, Amelia my assistant Will handle details - you'll receive a $10,000 advance tonight, $20,000 upon designing completion and $20,000 after the gala. he hands me a check: I took it my heart racing with excitement
thank you again alpha king - this opportunity means everything. thoughtfully I walked up to alpha Roland and also accepts his offer " alpha I accept", I mean it wouldn't be a bad idea as long it's for your daughter's birthday gala. he nods pleased with my acceptance " wonderful he said - Amelia, my daughter would love your designs, I'll pay an advance tonight, then he brings out a check of $10,000.
I accept beaming with joy.
I went home and began sketches , I moved into my home studio filled with designs I had bought and did the interior designs after Reilly left, I sat down
sipping hot chocolate; inspired by alpha Roland daughters birthday - ENCHANTED GARDEN.. I raised my eyes brow tapping it slowly while thinking: pastel colors
floral patterns
and soft fabrics.... perfect for a whimsical garden party. I began sketching elegant dresses; each unique yet fitting the theme:
*A lavender gown with lace trim and rose embroidery
*A mint green tea - length dress with matching hats and gloves.
*A yellow ball gown with layers of tulle and floral accents...
my phone buzzed - a text from Reilly " how was the gala? did anything exciting happen.
I text back " Gala was amazing, Got two huge offers ( Alpha Roland daughters banquet ie $20,000 and alpha king James for a charity gala ie $50,000.)
she responds immediately, screaming AHHHHHH!!! $70,000 total? your fashion label is taking off bestie, details tomorrow - sleep tight, designer queen
I laugh: then going back to bed feeling accomplished.
NEXT MORNING -
I wake up; checking my phone to see another text; this time from Victoria - hey Amelia, weird question - did You submit your fashion pratical designs already?
I responded immediately - nope, submitting them today -why,? need inspiration or just curious?
she types back immediately ÷ just curious, your designs intrigue me Good luck with submission.
I thank her before preparing for school on my way to submit unaware of Victoria's and Tiffany had already plagiarized yesterday
