She's Special (Part 1)
Never fall in love with a Dillon.

Everyone knows what kind of people they are; they never really fall in love. They only use everyone around them, and the ones who unfortunately, married into the family will suddenly get divorced two years later.

No one's really surprised, the women should have known that they could never change men like them. Even their mother gave up on them when they got to their fifth wife.

But, there is one foolish enough to fall in love with a Dillon. Someone who probably knows them better than anyone else...

And that someone is me.

"Divine, are you really sure? I mean, out of all of us out here, you know what happens behind that family." Yeah, I know everything. From the reason why they turned out like this, to the reason why their last wife suddenly wanted divorce.

They aren't really big on commitments, the three brothers fears commitments and never take their marriage seriously. Ever since they saw what happened to their mother at the hand of their father, they feared that they will turn the same as their father.

"Yeah..." At those times, I was the only person their age that comforted them, telling them that everything will be alright. When their father died, they thought that everything will be alright.

"Just- please, promise me this." My older sister was the second wife of the eldest Dillon. Everyone thought that she really IS the one but then... fear really took over those brothers.

Now, I'm going out with the middle child, Anthony.

"Do not become a martyr. I've been there, I've done all of that, and I promise you, it is not a pretty state to be." I nodded, holding my sister's hand tightly. She become a saint back then, covering up for her husband, accepting his excuses even though it doesn't make sense-

And it all just led to the end of a poor marriage.

"I know them better than anyone, big sis." I tried convincing myself, I will be alright if this relationship ends up in failure. I can handle that.

"Ok, good luck." She hugged me, then left me alone to her new husband. Honestly, her new husband is just perfect for her. I could already see how smitten he is with my sister.

And the way she smiles, I never saw her smile like that with her first husband. I hope I can smile like that with Anthony.

We started dating.

His eldest and youngest brother, of course, all accepted me quickly. His mother is happy as well, telling me that she has always been rooting for me to be part of the family.

"Anthony is the lucky one, huh?" Luke, the eldest, said.

"The lucky one? I don't think so. You know me- I never back down from his arrogant ass." This got a laugh out of him. I always smile at the idea that I know how to make this man laugh so easily.

Even more than any of his wives.

"You know, you're good for him. He never looked so invested in a relationship before." He tilted his head to the side, at the direction of Anthony. He was cooking my favorite food.

"Huh, maybe because I've known you for a long time." I answered, happy at the mention that maybe, I am different from the other girls that Anthony had a relationship with.

"There you are. A hot chocolate for you!" The youngest of the three, Casper, suddenly shouted from behind, startling me.

I turned around to glare at the man before taking the hot chocolate from his hand.

"You brat!"

"It's not like you're not used to it." Casper mumbled, drinking his own hot chocolate. I rolled my eyes, doing the same thing.

"So, Luke, how's things with the missus?" At the mention of his wife, Luke's face darkened. There were times when the reason of the divorce weren't really the brothers. Since they are wealthy and hot bachelors, a lot of gold diggers throw themselves at their feet.

And, this time, Luke got one.

"I got a private investigator to follow her. Maybe next month, she'll no longer be on my hair." I tried not to roll my eyes. I don't have the right to judge them but...

This time, Luke got a taste of his own medicine. Well, all of them got a taste of their own.

It's not like I drove them home all the time from a strip club, all drunk and incoherent. They always call me when their at those kinds of situations.

I swear, if Anthony does that to me, I'll...
