Harley walked toward me, a vision so stunning I had to keep blinking back my tears until I finally gave up and let them fall. When our eyes met, her body jerked with a sob, which did something to my heart I would never forget. Words couldn’t even begin to describe the happiness that bubbled up within me.

Gus held onto Harley a little tighter as they made their way to us. My eyes never broke away from hers.

“Are you breathing?” Steed asked. “You’re wobbling, bro.”

I drew in a deep breath as Harley’s smile grew bigger. When they stopped next to me, I couldn’t pull my gaze off of her while Gus lifted her veil and Paxton straightened it from the back. Wiping a tear from my face, I leaned in closer to her.

“You are absolutely the most stunning woman ever. You look beautiful.”

My knees shook at the look of pure love in her eyes.

“And you look handsome as ever.”

The pastor cleared his throat, asked who was giving Harley away, and the rest was a blur.

Before I knew it, Harley and I were tucked away in one of the tack rooms. I thought my father’s prized main barn was insane, but this barn put his to shame. The tack room felt more like a parlor you’d find in a house. It had been converted to a room where Lori’s family could relax. It had a sofa, TV, small sink with a coffee pot sitting on the counter and a large cooler filled with water. It was the perfect place for us to catch our breath after the ceremony. The photographer was waiting for us, but I insisted that I got to spend at least five minutes with my new bride.

She was breathtaking in the gown. The way it hugged every one of her curves nearly drove me insane. How I was able to keep my cock from going hard as stone during the ceremony was beyond me. It probably had to do with her father standing by her side.

Our eyes met and Harley dropped her bouquet onto the sofa, making her way to me and into my arms. When she reached up for a kiss, I cupped her face and let my gaze roam across her face.

“Let me look at you. You’re my wife. My entire world. You are my corazón.”

Tears spilled from her eyes as she barely got my name off her lips. “Tripp.”

Pressing my mouth against hers, I poured every ounce of my love into her. For every year I foolishly left town when she would come home. For the letter I ripped up and never read. For fighting my love because I was too fucking stubborn to let her back in. We had so much time to make up and I intended on starting tonight.

Our tongues danced with each other, and I nipped at her lip as she let out a low moan.

“I could fuck you right now, I’m so damn turned on.”

“And I would let you…if our family wasn’t on the other side of that door.”

“Who cares?” I said, pulling the dress up and running my fingers along her inner thigh.

“Tripp…we…can’t,” she said, her voice heavy with want.

“We can. Just be quiet.”

Her chest rose and fell as my fingers moved lightly along her lace panties.

“Five minutes. We said we only needed…five minutes,” she panted.

“I can be quick.”

Harley’s eyes turned dark, and I was on the cusp of getting to taste my wife.

The knock on the door and the sound of my mother’s voice deflated my hard-on within seconds. Harley let out a giggle and took a few steps back, adjusting her dress.

“Come in, Mom.”

My mother rushed through the door, shutting it quickly. Her eyes bounced between us and it didn’t take long for the dam of tears to break.

“Melanie!” Harley gasped, making her way over to her.

In some weird language I couldn’t understand, my mom started talking to us. Her mumbled words had us both leaning in to try and figure out what in the hell she was saying.

“What? Mom, what are you saying?” I asked.

“I think she said the words…happy…in love…new beginnings.”

“How in the hell did you get any of that?”

Harley shrugged.

“Mom,” I said, gripping her upper arms gently. “I need you to take a deep breath and talk slowly.”

“I…I…I…” Between each word was a sob. We’d be here all night, at this rate.

“Mom! Get it out!” I urged.

Waving her hands, she finally said, “I’m just so happy!”

Harley chuckled as I pulled my mother into my arms. “So am I, Mom. So am I.”

I motioned for Harley to join us and we stood there in a circle, hugging. When my mother was finished crying, she got herself together and let out a refreshed breath.

She placed one hand on my cheek, the other on Harley’s. “Five down. Two more to go.”
