The suite meant for the future Luna. My suite. To calm me, he even got on his knees, his eyes red as he promised, "Once she's safe, I'll remove the mark. You'll still be my only Luna."

For the ninth time, my best friend was left at the altar. And for the ninth time, my fiance was dragged in to play the part of her pretend groom. I was holding two cups of coffee. Before I could knock on the dressing room's door, I heard my best friend purring at someone.
"You're the best, Anton. You knew this was an act, but you played along anyway."
My breath caught. Through the half-open door, I stole a glance inside. My fiance, who had always been cold and unreadable, was looking at my best friend as if she were the most precious thing in his world.
"Getting left at the altar must've traumatized you. If I don't help you get over it, Emilia's going to be worried even if she marries me."
My best friend tugged lightly at the hem of his shirt. "But this is going to affect your relationship with her."
"Not like it's the first time. She's still with me. We're still a couple."
My fiance took out a diamond ring and held it against my best friend's finger.
"We've been together for ten years. She has no other choice, anyway."
The summer heat was scorching, yet part of me felt frozen solid. Slowly, I took my phone out and dialed a certain number.
"Hey, I'd like to show you what I look like in that wedding gown."

I grew up abroad. My mother feared I might marry a foreign man, so she arranged an engagement for me with a talented and handsome man in Flodon. She insisted that I return home to get engaged.
I came back and started shopping for an engagement dress at a luxury boutique. I selected an off-white strapless gown and decided to try it on.
Suddenly, a woman nearby glanced at the dress in my hand and told the saleswoman, "That's a unique design. Let me try it."
The saleswoman immediately yanked it out of my hands.
I protested indignantly, "Excuse me, I was here first. Don't you understand the principle of 'first come, first served'? Or do you just not care about common decency?"
The woman scoffed and retorted, "This dress costs $188,000. Do you really think a broke nobody like you can even afford it?
"I'm Lucas Goodwin's sister in all but blood. He's the chairman of Goodwin Group. In Flodon, the Goodwin family sets the rules."
What a coincidence! Lucas Goodwin was my fiancé!
I immediately called him and said, "Hey, your 'sister in all but blood' just stole my engagement dress. Do something about it."
