As expected, both the Lobo and Hernadez families were clamoring to find invites to Raymund Laurence's party. Tony Tamano and Matthew Hernandez had managed to get invites, Cedric had told Ray that Tony was harmless and that since Ray did business with Tony's family it was only proper that one member of the family should be invited. As for Matthew, he had been treating Adrianna well so Ray decided that he should at least allow one member of the Hernandez family to go.

Just getting on to Kashmere Island was quite a feat on it's own. Private planes and helicopters were not allowed near the island, only those belonging to the five princes and their families were allowed, other guests had to fly in to the nearest commercial airport and from there take the Kashmere plane or helicopter to get on the island.

Adrianna was unaware of this, so Cedric had arranged for one of the Reyes family planes to take them to Kashmere. From what Adrianna understood, they were going to hitch a ride with Ayanna and her family, when in fact they would have the plane all to themselves.

When she saw this she was shocked by the extravagance. The Reyes Family were actually taking two separate planes to Kashmere. One had Adrianna and Cedric on board, Leon and Mia as well as their teams had boarded ahead and were in a different area of the plane, they would arrive ahead, the second plane would have Ayanna, Emilio, and Priscilla, as well as some members of the staff.

Kashmere Island was around 516 hectares, it had its own landing strip for airplanes and 3 helipads. There was a public area where guests could freely roam and a private one that was exclusively for Ray Laurence's use, which of course meant the four princes and their families as well. All the structures and even the island layout was designed by Veronica, and that helped draw the appeal for people to want to go to Kashmere.

There was a golf course, pool, tennis courts, basketball courts, bowling alley, football field, and a polo field on the island. There were also multiple villas all with seaside views and it's own private beach front. There were four restaurants on the island all catering to different delicacies. There was also a country club with a 360 degree view of the island, there were several function rooms, a salon, a shop where the latest fashions were available, a fine dining restaurant, as well as a cinema, and a playground for children. By the common beach area there was a coffee shop and bar that was very famous to guests, a trip to Kashmere would not be complete if you didn't go there.

The island boasted it's green energy as it ran on solar and wind energy, rain water was also recycled. Kashmere island rarely had too many guests since just getting invited to make a reservation was already close to impossible and the price of staying there for one night was what most people made in a year. And yet the rich, the famous, and the powerful all tried to find a way to get a reservation at Kashmere.

When Adrianna and Cedric arrived on the island there were very few guests. They were taken in a car to Ray's private compound on the island. The villas here were more opulently made, each had its own private pool, entertainment center, a kitchen and a chef, it was fully staffed, and had a separate house for staff that the guests would bring. Each villa also had its own security detail, but despite this Cedric preferred to have Leon and Mia with their teams around.

Adrianna was in awe of Kashmere, Cedric who had been here once or twice smiled at his wife's surprise. Ray had intentionally set up villas, one for each of his friends and their families, all catered to their own tastes.

"Wow. This place is beyond my wildest imagination!" Adrianna said looking around the villa.

"Do you want to go around the island later?" Cedric asked her.

"Sure! I think they provide each villa with a golf cart to take us around. I'll call the girls! I'm sure they would love to see this place." Adrianna said as she took out her phone and placed her friends on video call.

Cedric told Adrianna he was going to take a look around, when in reality he had gone over to the mini airport on the island to meet his parents and siblings.

When Ayanna saw her brother alone on the runway she ran over to give him a hug.

"Brother!" Ayanna shouted.

"Ayanna, you'll trip!" Cedric said laughing.

Ayanna hugged her brother tightly. She couldn't wait for when he would drop his stupid disguise and announce who he was.

Cedric greeted his parents and they walked to the car together.

"Is everything set for tonight?" Emilio Reyes asked his son.

"Yes dad. I just need your help with the other parts." Cedric said with a wink.

"I'm so excited Cedric." Priscilla Reyes told her son.

"I'm more nervous than excited mom." Cedric laughed.

"Christmas has always been your favorite season brother." Ayanna said looking out at the scenery they passed.

"Well, Christmas was the only time I got to see everyone for thirteen years. Of course I love Christmas." Cedric said with a smile.

They first dropped Ayanna off in her own villa. Each of the sisters had their own as well, and all five made sure to use it as often as possible.

Ayanna's villa had an office, since she was such a workaholic. It also housed the largest library in the island since she loved to read. Everyone had made it a point to bring a book every time they came over to the island and place it in Ayanna's library.

Veronica's villa had a studio where she could create designs, she had created her best designs when working on the island. She also had a room that was filled with cameras and a dark room for developing photos. The cameras here were just part of Veronica's collection, she had different cameras and lenses at home. She also had a gallery with photographs she took as well as those the six brothers had bought for her in different auctions.

Katerina's had an office and a library full of law books. Katerina often used the office on Kashmere island to meet most of her international clients. It allowed her to meet them in secret since the island had its own airport. Her villa also had a dance studio and a music room. Katerina spent thirteen years dancing ballet, playing the piano, violin, and the flute. It helped her focus and calm down. She would often play for the group when they had family gatherings, and it was a stark contrast to her usual strong and aggressive personality.

Nicole's villa was possibly one of the cleanest. Coming from a family of doctors she made sure every surface was sterile. Just like Katerina, Nicole often had her international clients and investors meet her on Kashmere, many were looking to get her older brother Miguel to operate on them. She used to have a music studio in the villa, but the boys all agreed to have it removed since Nicole wouldn't stop singing because of the studio. To make her feel better they built her a state of the art kitchen. Nicole loved to cook and bake, but rarely had the time because of her work.

Natalia's villa had a lab underneath. Ray had made sure to put all kinds of protection around it so that people couldn't figure out what Natalia was doing in her lab. It was also to protect everyone in case her experiments failed. Natalia also had a gaming room inside her villa. She was actually a professional gamer that always refused to show her face. She was the top in around ten online games worldwide. Many gaming companies and tech companies had already tried to convince her to be their spokesperson, Natalia declined every time.

When Cedric dropped his parents off at the villa he warned them to expect that many of the guests will be looking for the Reyes Heir since Ayanna and Ray had so bravely "let it slip" that he would be there.

By the time Cedric had returned to the villa he found Adrianna done with her video call and dressing up to look around the island.

"What do you want to see first?" Cedric asked.

"I heard that there is a nice coffee shop overlooking the beach. I want to go there first, then maybe we can take a dip in the sea?" Adrianna suggested.
