Chapter 54: Aunt May’s Gift.
Dylan pressed his lips onto Ivy’s, trying to find a path into her mouth. The alcohol in his breath made her almost dizzy.
Ivy tried to break free from his hold, but his grip was too strong. Dylan’s hand went down to her waist, pulling her closer, and her stomach twisted with disgust.
When his other hand found her breast and squeezed it painfully, the contact was enough to spark more anger within her.
She kicked him in between his legs, and when Dylan reached down to hold his trousers, she pushed him with all her might.
“You bastard!” she yelled, wiping his kiss away from her mouth.
He crawled to the desk, groaning in pain. Fueled by anger, Ivy stormed to him and kicked him hard in his back.
Dylan fell. Scared she might have seriously injured him, Ivy ran out of the study.
She touched her cheeks in disbelief, trying to steady her nerves. Her heart racing from Dylan’s assault. She quickened her pace, walking away until she saw Silas and Bud coming towards the hallway.
Silas was talking to Bud, his countenance had anger written all over it. But when he saw Ivy, he paused and hurried towards her. “What’s wrong?”
“Uhmm, nothing,” she said, though her heavy breathing betrayed her.
Silas rushed to her, placing a hand over her shoulders. “You don’t look fine,” he said.
“I’m… fine,” she stuttered.
He raised an eyebrow. “What were you doing in the study?”
She bit her lip, her cheeks burning. “I went there looking for you, but your friend—”
“My friend?” His voice rose.
“Yes,” she nodded. “Dylan,” she said quietly. “He was-
Before Ivy could finish her statement, Silas rushed to the study, followed by Bud. Out of curiosity, she followed.
“You fool!” Silas roared, lunging at Dylan, who still looked like he was in pain. “What the hell are you doing at my wedding?” He punched Dylan.
Dylan yelped, flying over the desk, spilling all the items there.
Bud reached Silas, stopping him handlat heads

Silas turned to him, his hazel eyes blazing with tury. “Like you handled this? If your job, this fool wouldn’t have found his way here and harassed my guests!” He flared, then he turned to Ivy. “Did he touch you?”

Ivy’s heart fluttered at the intensity of the anger in his eyes. She feared if she told Silas the truth, he would kill Dylan right there. “He tried to,” she said instead.
That didn’t help either. “You… you scumbag!” Silas shouted, charging toward Dylan.
He grabbed Dylan by his shirt, and punched him repeatedly on the face,
Ivy watched in terror at the sight, until several of Silas’s bodyguards came to hold Silas and whisked Dylan away. When Dylan was bundled by the guards, Ivy saw that his face was now covered in blood.
“Maximum security!” Silas yelled. “That’s what I demanded!”
“Apologies sir,” Bud muttered.
Silas ignored him, walking over to Ivy. He took her hand and led her out of the study. Ivy followed him quietly, her heart pounding. It was her first time seeing him this mad, and it scared her.
Silas stopped in the hallway. “I’m going to clean up,” he said, then left before she could speak.
Ivy took a deep breath, and decided to head to the garden for fresh air. She was halfway there when she saw her aunt.
“Ivy,” May said, approaching her with a warm smile. “Congratulations.”
“Thank you, aunt,” Ivy smiled.
May’s brow creased. “You look pale, are you good?”
“Yes, I am,” she nodded, even though she was still a little nervous. “Just a little… distracted.”
May regarded her for a moment, before leaning in and whispering. “Are you having
cold feet?”
The concern in May’s voice made Ivy laugh. “No,” she said, shaking her head. “Not at all. But thank you for coming.”
“You’re welcome,” May replied. “Where’s your husband?”
Ivy’s cheeks turned red when she remembered Silas and Dylan’s altercation. “He just left.”
“Alright then. My regards to him. I’ve to go now–work is calling,” May said. ”
Congratulations again.”
“Thank you, aunt,” Ivy said, reaching out and hugging her tightly.
“You’re welcome, Ivy,” Máy smiled. “You’re a strong woman, my sweet girl, and I’m so
proud of you,” she said, giving Ivy a kiss on her forehead.
The emotions in her aunt’s eyes made Ivy’s heart swell. “Thank you, aunt.”
May cleared her throat. “The gift I got you is special.” She winked.

Ivy laughed at her aunt’s gesture. “What did you do?”
“You’ll see,” May teased. She gave lvy a quick kiss on the cheek. “I have to go now. Love you!”
“I love you, bye.” ivy waved as May hurried off.
She waited till her aunt was out of sight before heading for the garden. The instant Ivy got the garden, she was stopped by Theresa and Aria.
“Hey girl, where did you go?” Aria asked, reaching for her hand.
“Just around,” Ivy remarked with a small smile. She glanced round the garden and noticed that most of the guests had already left.
“Today was fun,” Theresa said, smiling genuinely. “Congratulations, Ivy. It’s lovely having you in our family.”
“Thank you” Ivy smiled.
“You missed a lot,” Aria said, her voice rising with excitement. “Dylan, Silas’s terrible friend, was thrown out! Apparently he wasn’t invited. And get this–he tried to hit on one of Silas’s associates, who came in with her husband!”
“Silas beat the shit out of him,” Theresa added, screeching with laughter.
ivy’s stomach stirred with disgust as she remembered Dylan’s hands on her body, his Kiss, his alcohol smelling breath. Her cheeks flushed with guilt and embarrassment as she remembered she had lied to Silas.
“Enough of the talk. Let’s get this bride fucked up,” Aria declared; already pulling Ivy toward the garden’s exit.
“No, I’m good,” Ivy protested, her eyes darting around, hoping Silas would pop in and save her
“Ana’s right,” Theresa agreed. “It’s still your wedding day. Let’s go!”
Ivy tried to protest harder, but it fell on deaf ears as they both pulled her to the bar.
Ara whispered to the waitress, while Theresa pulled out the stools.
“I took a break from work,” Theresa said. “And I’m going to enjoy every bit of it.”
“We party all night!” Aria cheered.
Ivy laughed, finally giving in/ The waitress brought them shots, and they gulped it down. When the alcohol hit ivy, she began to relax.
They drank, talked, and laughed for hours until neither of them were fit to continue.
Aria helped Theresa out of the stool, while Ivy stood up, taking off her shoes. She waved her goodbyes, watching as Aria staggered away with Theresa.
ivy made her way upstairs, throwing her heels by her bedside. She was about to collapse on the bed when the gifts on the table caught her eyes.

She remembered May’s words and curiosity got the best of her. She took May’s gift and peeled off its wrapper.
Ivy gasped, her eyes widening. The gift was a long, slim dildo. Its human–like shape
made her cheeks burn.
“What’s this?”
Ivy turned to her door, hiding the dildo behind her, but it was too late.
Silas already saw it, and his eyes were gleaming with mischief.
“Don’t be shy, show me,” he said in that tone she always found compelling.
Ivy’s blush deepened as she slowly brought the dildo in view. “It’s a gift,” she blurted
out.
Silas chuckled. “That’s great then. Use it.”
Ivy blinked. “What?”
He walked closer to her, a smirk curled on his lips. “It’s a gift. It’s our wedding night. I want you to use it while I watch.”
