In Love With The Broken Man

17 years old

I gaze at the stunning New York City lights outside the automobile window. My lips form a smile. I haven't visited this metropolis that never sleeps in a very long time.

I look at my attire for the gathering tonight and sigh. I'm pleased with the tosca dress I'm wearing, which has a fitted waist, leg slits, and a halter neck that crosses over in the front. I've swept my long, wavy, golden hair to one side. This ought to be suitable enough to go to one of the most important events of the year.

I look at Sienna, my cousin, who is seated beside me in the automobile. Her maroon one-shoulder dress makes her appear stunning.

Max, her older brother, is sitting next to the window of the other car, typing on his phone. In his navy suit, he appears well-groomed as well.

Uncle Vaughn and Aunt Melanie are seated in the front seats. Mom is currently traveling with Dad on a business vacation abroad. It's better to send me here to spend the summer vacation with his sister than to have me pout by myself in our Texas house. I've told him I'm too excited to spend the summer in New York.

This is where I intend to meet my pals in addition to spending time with my cherished cousins, aunt, and uncle. I will have the most amazing summer vacation ever.

Max cheerfully says, "Luna can't wait to see us," informing us that his fiancée is already anticipating our arrival.

Correct. Fiance.

Who would become engaged immediately after enrolling in college? Max and Luna are there.

Everyone is aware of their intense love, and I can understand his obsession with her. One of the loveliest persons I've ever met is Luna Blake.

Therefore, nobody opposed when Max revealed that he had proposed to Luna, but he made it clear that they would only be married after graduating from college.

Luna's parents, Lucas and Cassandra Blake, have become close to Uncle Vaughn and Aunt Melanie. Everyone is aware that Lucas and Cassandra Blake are the most adored celebrity couple in the world, as well as a famous billionaire and a rockstar. To this day, the Blakes continue to attract the attention of reporters and paparazzi.

They wouldn't enjoy tonight's event without Max's family because they have become close with them. Since it was first announced, the aforementioned event has been drawing media interest. And that's the wedding of their son.

The marriage of Ethan Blake.

Ethan Blake will marry his future wife tonight at the age of 26. And for that reason, we're all in this car on our way to New York's most amazing wedding venue.

We exit the vehicle as soon as we arrive at the premises. Uncle Vaughn lets the valet handle it. As I look at the great entrance, my heart is racing. There are many famous people there. I recognize too many well-known faces: actors and actresses, supermodels, musicians, politicians, businesspeople, and socialites.

Oh no. The event tonight will undoubtedly go down in history. The largest wedding in New York this year is that of Ethan Blake.

Sienna whispers in my ear, "Oh my God, remind me to behave," as we ascend the main lobby's steps. "There are so many people here I want to take pictures with."

I laugh, and my breath catches in my throat as we enter the reception's main venue, a big, opulent ballroom packed with even more immaculately dressed folks. I saw media personnel recording the ceremony and reporters interviewing a few visitors. Even though it won't be televised live, this wedding will undoubtedly be shown on television.

Max approaches Luna, who is waiting in a row near the altar. She is stunning in a silver long-sleeved dress with her hair in a sophisticated twisted bun. She gives us a wave and gives Max a brief peck on the lips as we get close to her.

Max looks at her affectionately. "You look beautiful." He is unable to conceal his admiration. "And joyful, and anxious.
