"So, You are....?" Ansela Mckade, the youngest and only daughter of the Mckade's, pouted her lips with a frown in her beautiful face. Of all the Mckade's, Ansela was the only one who didn't appear on the front page of the gossip Magazines in the family.

Well one couldn't blame her. She is the most cool person in the family and that is aside from their mother of course. Even their father had constantly been on the the gossip page of every magazine before he married their mother.

Ansela graduated from college when she was sixteen and had moved to Paris to learn about how to play the pianoforte and also learn how to cook. Now at eighteen ,she can play the pianoforte as well as cook any French food. Which was why they were eating French dishes tonight. She had returned from Paris two days ago and was surprised when their parents informed her that Kaden had called for a family dinner and that all family should be present. All except their older brother,who was in Cape Town, South Africa at the moment.

Ansela was curious as to why her brother would call for a family dinner. Did she mention that Kaden had never ever called for a family dinner before?

"Skylar Anderson." Skylar gave Ansela a look of disbelief. Who in west Philly don't know Skylar Anderson?

"Would have said nice to meet you, but sorry the name does not ring a bell." Ansela dipped her baguette into her soup.

"Ansela." Steven Mckade,their father,warned,before turning his gaze on Kaden who was frowning at his sister. "We are curious as to why you called this meeting son."

"Yes." Kaden cleared his throat before reaching for Skylar's right hand which was on the table. "Skylar and I are engaged."

"Unbelievable." Ansela muttered. "Are you sure that Kaden didn't hit his head in the shower stall? I am surely hearing things. The very Kaden who swore never to get married?"

Arabella Mckade,their mother, was grinning from ear to ear at the news Kaden just delivered. Who would have thought that her youngest son would be the first to get married?

"I am so happy." Arabella clapped her hands together,tears filled her light green eyes. "Honey do you hear that? Our baby is getting married."

"I am not deaf Bella." Steven flashed her a smile. "Congratulations son. I am so proud of you."

"Thank you dad." Kaden smiled at Skylar who smiled back.

"You do realise that after you get married,there will be an end to your Casanova ways right?" Ansela leaned back into her chair to sip her wine. "Why do you even need to get married? You are still young. And even if you are getting married......" She let the rest trail off. But everyone clearly knew what she wanted to say.

Why her?

Kaden frowned at his sister who merely shrugged before pasting a fake smile on her face. He knew why his sister was acting like that but he didn't care. He owns his own life and he will very well choose whoever he wants to spend his life with. He is not going to allow whatever his younger sister say stop him from marrying the woman he loves.

"Have you decided on the wedding date yet?" Arabella dabbed the corner of her mouth with the white napkin on the table.

"No. We wanted to announce it first." Skylar said. "And I would love it if you come to see my mother and father."

"Sure dear. Just tell us when they would be available."

"Would you ladies excuse us for a minute?" Steven shoved his chair back before getting up. "Kaden and I have something to discuss."

"Of course." Arabella tilted her cheek to the side for Steven's peck.

"Excuse me." Kaden got up after kissing Skylar briefly on her lips. "I leave you in good hands. Ansela behave."

Ansela rolled her eyes as they left the dinning room. "Men. " she murmured. "Mother,you won't mind if I leave now,would you?"

"No."

Ansela got up and walked out of the room. She was about to go inside her own study room when Skylar caught up with her. Skylar pushed the door open then shoved her inside the room. She stepped in and closed the door.

"What did you do that for?" Ansela whirled around to face her. "And why are you here?"

"I know you and I don't get along very well after that incident that happened four years ago." Skylar leaned against the door with a frown on her face. "But can you not interfere in my wedding plans?"

"Forget?" Ansela scoffed in disbelief. "How can I forget that you snatched my boyfriend from me? You lied to him just so you can spread your filthy thighs for him. And there is no way I am going to let Kaden get married to a slut like you."

"I was not the one who made him sleep with me now, was I?" A smirk played on her face. "He came willingly. He knew better than to mingle with someone as flat and inexperienced as you."

"You bloody little vixen." Ansela's fist balled at her sides. "I will make sure that you will not marry Kaden,Mark my words."

"No need to go all British on me." Skylar barked out a laughter. "I warn you now. Stay out of our business and I might make sure you keep your beautiful little nose. If you don't do as I say.... Let's just save that part for later."

"Are you threatening me?" Ansela scowled at her.

"Call it a warning. Butt out of my business and we will get along just fine." Skylar moved closer to her then patted her head. "Come with me."

"Oh,there they are." Arabella said to Kaden and Steven who stood beside the bar talking about business,immediately she spotted Skylar and Ansela coming towards them.

"Where have you been?" Kaden asked as he crossed the room to wrap his arm around Skylar's waist.

"Ansela took me on a wonderful tour of the house." Skylar directed a warning smile in Ansela's direction."or is it not?"

"It is true." Ansela returned the smile with a warning in her eyes. "It's been a pleasure having you around." Not.

If Kaden detected the sarcasm in her voice,he didn't acknowledge it.

"We'll be leaving now." Kaden announced. "Good night mom, dad."

"Let us know when your parents are available." Arabella hugged Skylar before pecking Kaden on his cheek.

"Good night Mr Mckade. Mrs--"

"Oh,nonsense." Arabella cut in sharply. "You are family now. Call me Bella and call him Steven."

"Okay." Skylar flashed Ansela a triumphant grin.

"We'll be leaving now." Kaden turned to leave.

"Good night to you too Kaden." Ansela said before turning and going up the stairs.

"An--" Kaden released Skylar to go after Ansela but she stopped him.

"Leave her alone. Let's just go." Skylar took his arm and began to pull him out the door.

"But--"

Skylar shot him a look which made him sigh and follow her.

Arabella frowned at their retreating backs with a frown on her face. What just happened?

Ansela paused at the top of the stairs as she watch Skylar drag her brother out the door. If Skylar thinks she will seat back and let her marry Kaden,then she was definitely crazy. No brother of hers would marry a drug addict, a slut and wicked girl like Skylar. She had be friends with Skylar for years and there is no way she would allow such an evil creature like her into their family.

But how would she stop the marriage from happening?

Ansella got her answer the next week when she walked into a flower shop which was in the downtown part of Philly. One would be wondering why she came to buy flower from the downtown when she could easily get one in the uptown part of Philly right?

Well,the answer was that she wanted to buy a bouquet of black rose and she could not get it uptown. So with the help of a passer by,she was able to get that Milton's flower shop sold the exact type of flower she was looking for. The plan was to buy a black rose and an equally black card,then send it to Skylar with an inexistent name,threatening her to stay away from Kaden Mckade or die.

But when she saw the owner of the shop,the wheels started turning in her mind and her plans changed at once. God really never cease to surprise her. She had been trying to think of ways to separate Kaden and Skylar,while the solution had been downtown all along.

What else could throw Kaden off his feet if not a beautiful blonde?

"Umm, hello." Ansela walked up to the tiled counter where the owner sat down staring at her phone.

Startled, Cassie looked up from her phone with a frown on her face. But the frown turned into a smile. Ansela smiled back. No one would recognise her with her disguise. She had chosen the red wig at the last minute,when she wanted to leave the house. The contact she wore made her eyes green instead of the normal black colour, and the heavily applied make-up on her face made her look like twenty four instead of eighteen.

She didn't look like Ansela Mckade at all.

"Hello." Cassie got off her stool. "How can I help you?"

"I am Josephine Odukoya." Ansela blurted the first name that came to her mind. Odukoya? Real smart Ansela,really smart. "I just moved here and I was wondering if I can get a nice rose flower for my friend."

"For a minute there you looked like someone I have seen before." Cassie got down from her stool before walking around the counter to stand beside Ansela.

"Really?" Ansela began to panic. Did she recognise her?

"A sweet girl who happened to be the sister of some manwhore I know but have never seen." Cassie shook her head when she remembered her mother's word that morning.

"And who would that be?" Ansela already knew the answer to the question,but she asked anyway. "Is manwhore even a word?"

"No it's not. But it describes Kaden Mckade perfectly."

Ahh,so there is one blonde in Philly who hates Kaden Mckade? Interesting.

"Wow. You know that Asinine playboy too?" Ansela feigned a surprised look. "I have only heard about him."

"Thank your lucky stars that you are fortunate not to have met him. I wouldn't wish it for my enemies or my friends." Cassie shook her head again.

"I suppose you are right." Ansela hid her smile. "Can I have your card please? I am buying one bouquet as a sample, you see. My friend is about to wed next month and I want to find the perfect flower for her."

"Sure." Cassie left for the room where she usually keep her purse and clean clothes.

Ansella quickly whip out her iPhone 6+ from her phone,when Cassie was out of sight. She quickly went to Google and searched for types of roses. She smiled when she saw one and pressed the home button. she dropped her phone in her purse just as Cassie returned from the inner room with her card.

"here,you can call me at anytime." Cassie handed the card over with a smile. "what type of flower do you want?"

"The blue girl." Ansela smiled secretly. blue girl,blonde girl.

"nice choice." Cassie beamed at her. "i will be right back."

Ansela inwardly congratulated herself for coming up with this clever plan. didn't they say that she the coolest in their family?

Bah! How can they forget to add mischievous to the list?
