We were all getting ready at Allie’s place since she lived closer to the hotel than us. We were using the ballroom of the five-star hotel in the city. It was my idea seeing has many people were flying in for the event so they were at the venue and they had their rooms. upstairs.
I never understood why Devil’s tech had to organize this event because I hated it and yet for the five years as an employee, I had to attend this event. The twins were going alone and Allie has my brother as an escort. Candice had me.
As promised, Mr. Black’s driver came and drop me and my friends at the shop and what was even better was the fact that they all got them dresses at the shop that was actually not so expensive. I brought me a different dress and this saleslady refused to ring up my dress especially when she saw Mr. Black’s driver.
Theo is a nice person but the idiot only sings praises of his boss. It made me want to box him and just send him off to some neverland place where they show the true face of the devil. I wanted to know the face of the man that got a react out of me that my boyfriend isn’t able to do.
We stood in front of the full-length mirror. Alison looked beautiful with her blue hair pinned up in an up-do. Her makeup brought out her eyes, making them look big and beautiful. She wore a beautiful black mermaid dress.

Our color theme was black. We did this each year. Last year we all wore lace and above all, we had to be comfortable because we always hit the club afterward. The twins went matching again. They wore a backless tight fitted black midi dress. Not only did it bring out their perfect bodies but the backless made their making tribal tattoos stand out against their pale skin. They didn’t believe in formal hairstyles so they only straighten their hair and it flowed perfectly behind their backs.

Candice, my beautiful Candice, she wore an off-shoulder flare sleeve elegant mini dress. Her dress was black as well but it was a mini dress that hugged every possible curve. According to Candice, she didn’t want to look like a secretary and she didn’t. She looked like a possible trophy wife. Her make-up was done by professionals seeing as she wanted to look like a billionaire, she had her face done by a make-up artist.

Then there’s me. My make-up consists of eyeliner and lipstick. It was as far as my make-up skills went and plus, I wasn’t a make-up person. My dress was black, obvious. It was a long length elegant off-shoulder black dress with a side or a slit, which was a bit to close to my private than I wanted it. My hair was loose behind my back. My hair stopped right above my butt and I had it cut into layers to make it easier for me and I guess it worked.

We were all seated in the car that my brother got us. He was getting Alison at the venue. I was supposed to be at the venue along time ago. According to my knowledge, the speaker had already thanked the guest and the dance floor was opened. We will at least make it to dinner. Traveling with my girls is a bad idea because we literally take three hours to get done and that’s just the beginning.
When the car stopped, my brother was first on the scene. He helped us out of the car. We knew he wasn’t going to help us if Alison got out first so we had her sit last so that my brother was forced to help us. It was a cruel thing to do but it was what we had to do in order to get what we wanted.
“Little sis, you look amazing.” My second eldest brother said.
I kissed his cheek. “Thank you, Oliver.”
Oliver was the second born out of five children. He was what we call, the responsible brother. He cares for us but a little too much. He had a bright future but I guess, life had other plans for him. Oliver looked like our mother, dark brown hair with olive skin and the most beautiful hazel eyes. He was pretty and that was his advantage.
I always thought that I would never get married because my brothers were what I wanted until Mr. Black destroyed my idea of beauty. My brothers were nothing compared to him. Ben had nothing on my brothers so I could still admire my brothers but now, every time I see my brothers, I can’t help but compare them to Mr. Black.
“August and Charles are also here.” He said as he helped Candice.
Charles is the firstborn. He took after our father. He was those types that never shut up. He could talk forever and yet, we seemed to love our big brother like that. He and I looked like brothers since we both had blue eyes and dark brown hair. If he wasn’t firstborn, he could easily play the role of my twin brother.
Oggie was the baby brother but acted like the oldest but he still had his playful side. I was more for my brothers than my sister but I guess it because my sister has her own life and she is always busy. She had her ‘business’ and family to take care of and its something both I and my brothers understood.
I was born last and being born last came with advantages but it was a disadvantage most of the time. “I’ll see them inside.”
We walked towards the entrance of the venue. Have you ever watched a movie and when the main character comes on, the whole slow-motion thing happens. Now, that’s what it felt like when we walked through the doors of the ballroom. All eyes were on us. The twins on my left and Candice on my right. It was funny since Candice even did a hair flip. I gave a smile to my friends as we decent the stairs.
When I said all eyes were on us, I meant it but I forgot to add that I felt a certain pair of eyes on my entire body. I knew without having to look who’s eyes were on me, even his stare was powerful. I shrugged it off and walked towards the bar.
“You had Mr. Black stare at you the whole time,” Stephanie spoke up. She had this insane idea that after she left the office, the dirty happened and no matter how much you correct her, she sticks to her logic.
“Please, he was probably staring at Candice,” I order a drink. “Seeing as she is the only one he calls by the first name.”
“That is true,” Zephanie said as she took her drink in her hand.
We all had drinks and just before I turned to face the crowd, Candice dropped the bomb.
“His brother.” She calmly stated and took a sip of her drink.
