Bellissima

Author’s POV

“Maa why this haldi is not pink or purple… but will look beautiful”

Bella asked when everyone was applying Haldi on her.

Anamika laughed.

“Because it’s turmeric Bella…”

She was wearing yellow lehnga and Everyone was wearing matching colors cloth.

“She will be the first bride who wants purple turmeric…”

Jasmine teased.

“Don’t tease her… It’s her wedding day…”

Grace chuckled.

“Okay bride is done with the haldi ceremony now it’s our turn…”

Raan grinned.

“This is haldi not Holi…”

Grace widened her eyes.

“You will see…”

Raan smirked.

Anamika looked at Massimo with wide eyes.

“No! You will ruin my designer saree…”

He just smirked and she got the hint to run. Before she goes too far with her heels and saree he grabbed her by waist and she let out a playful scream.

He caged her against the pillar.

“You can’t run away from me, tigress…”

He smirked.

“This is not fair… I am wearing heels.”

She complained.

“Not my problem…”

He shrugged.

“Wait!… Be gentle, you will ruin my favorite saree.”

She warned.

“It’s yellow anyway…”

He chuckled.

“Don’t worry I’ll gift you thousand sarees like this… But today i want you to see my color on you.”

She blushed when he rubbed his cheek on hers which already has haldi on it.

“Dom!”

Grace said and Dominick who was talking to his friend turned around.

Grace rubbed haldi on his cheeks taking him off guard.

“What the fuck!”

He stepped back.

Grace grinned.

“Yellow suits you.”

Dominick smirked.

“Really?… Run!”

Grace screamed when he ran after her with fistful of haldi.

“You are getting naughty Day by day…”

He said when he hauled her back by her waist.

“No! I am sorry… You will ruin my makeup…”

She laughed.

“Should have think before…”

He Smeared haldi on her face making her whine.

“Yellow suits you…”

He chuckled.

Alex peaked at Bella and gestured her to meet him in the corner.

“No! Your mother has strictly warned us not to see each other’s faces after this ceremony…”

Bella shook her head.

Alex rolled her eyes.

“You meet me on wedding night.”

He threatened and she gulped.

After the ceremony all women poured water on Alex and Bella while they were standing holding each other’s hands.

“Oh my god!”

Bella laughed when they poured water on them.

“It’s fucking cold…”

Alex grabbed her hand tightly.

“Alex smile… You are looking like a cry baby…”

Raan laughed and he scowled.

*******

Anamika looked at the mirror and smiled placing her hands on Bella’s shoulders.

“You are looking like a queen…”

Bella looked at the mirror not recognizing herself.

Her hair was in bun which was covered in Arabian Jasmine flowers, heavy maangtika was making the hairstyle look beautiful. She was in love with her earrings which were matching her heavy necklace, it was covering her whole neck.

She was drooling over her beautiful nose ring.

Then comes the waistband which was holding her dupatta in place and giving her waist slim look. She was in love with the sound of her bangles which were literally covering her hands till elbows. Melodious payal was cherry on the top.

Her red lehnga was heavily worked, dupatta has golden stars on it. And blouse was giving her classy and beautiful look with deep neck.

Alex was already sitting in the wedding mandap in front of the divine fire, eagerly waiting for his bride to arrive. He was wearing Sherwani which was matching with Bella’s dress.

“She is not running anywhere… Focus on rituals…”

Dominick said while placing flowers in his hand.

“I treat her good, unlike you..”

Alex mocked back.

“She is not going to run like your bride…”Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.

“You are talking too much…”

Dominick scowled.

Alex looked at the direction when Bella arrived with His mother.

“Damn!”

He was stunned looking at her, she was not looking like a Bella.

He helped her to sit beside him and fixed her dress.

“You are looking like a goddess…”

He looked at her admiringly and Bella blushed at him.

They started rituals and pandit ji (priest) asked to do a kanyadan. Where parents gives their daughter to groom.

Valentino and Amanda came ahead but Bella stopped them.

“Dad you are my only parent… I know the importance of this ritual so i want you to do this alone…”

She said not even glancing at Amanda.

“But Bella she is your mother…”

Jasmine tried to calm her down so it won’t cause scene.

“Bella is right”

Anamika said.

“Just giving birth doesn’t make you mother…”

She can understand Bella as Anamika has got the betrayal from her own family too.

“Mr. Valentino please do it alone…”

Bella smiled at Anamika for supporting her.

Valentino placed Bella’s hand in Alex’s hand and asked him to take care of her and completed the rituals of kanyadan, Bella’s brother is too small to tie the knot so Valentino also tied the knot of Bella’s veil and Alex’s long scarf which was on his shoulder.

He kissed Bella’s forehead.

“Your happiness is all that matters… I wish you a happy life ahead…”

Bella kissed his hand with beautiful smile.

After that they completed other rituals like seven Agnifera (completing seven rounds around the divine fire). Mangalsutra (around her neck) and sindoor (red colour in her hair partition).

“Finally you are mine…”

He kissed her forehead.

“I was always yours…”

She placed her forehead on his.

“Isn’t it time for the wedding night…”

Alex said annoyed.

Anamika slapped his arm.

“Control yourself… We are not done yet…”

“Okay I’ll explain the everything…”

Wedding planner came forward.

“You have to gently push the kalash with your right toe and step in that plate which has red color…”

Bella followed her instructions and came inside the palace.

“Now… One last game and you guys are free to go…”

She asked her assistant to bring big pot of milk which has rose petals in it.

“Mr. Marino please drop your wedding ring in it…”

Alex did as he was told.

“Now you guys have to find the ring and the one who will find it first will rule the house and hearts…”

“Bella… You have to win…”

Raan cheered.

“Alex!”

Dominick said just one word in his favor.

They both sat in front of each other.

“1 2 3… Start!”

They both started looking for the ring in milk pot and everyone was cheering them.

Bella and Alex caught ring at the same time and Bella pouted at him.

“Please”

She mouthed.

Alex smiled and let her take the ring. All girls jumped in happiness when Bella won.

“Girls always rule…”

Anamika smirked at Massimo and he chuckled.

They finally let them go to the room after checking Alex’s patience.

Bella was impressed by the decoration of the bedroom. Rose petals on the bed and fragrance candles.

“Fuck! It was tiresome…”

Alex said while closing the door.

“I enjoyed it…”

Bella smiled.

“Yes i saw that…”

He walked towards her and she gulped.

“You are getting punished for doing all those naughty acts…”

“I didn’t do anything…”

She gave him innocent smile.

He removed the veil from her head and dropped it on the floor.

“Don’t worry I’ll make you remember…”

He smirked tracking her soft cheeks.
