“Damn that sounded hot as fuck.” Ali says, fanning her face. Axyl won’t be rough with her when she’s pregnant, which she hates, but if Hannah were to get pregnant, I would be the same way. “I can’t wait for this baby to be born.” She looks to Axyl and his eyes dilate, catching onto her meaning.

“And six weeks.” Hannah adds in causing both to groan. We stay at the restaurant for about thirty more minutes before we decide to go explore the night life of St. Thomas. We can’t stay out too much later, or our parents will come search for us. By the time we make it back to the villa it’s close to midnight. All our parents are sitting on the deck outside talking. When we step out of the car, the women stand up.

“Well?” They ask in unison. I chuckle and grab Hannah’s hand, holding it up in the air.

“She said yes!” I shout. There are cheers all around. Hugs and congratulations follow before we all join our parents on the deck.

“They also had the hottest sex I’ve ever heard in the bathroom of the restaurant. I’m pretty sure everyone in a thirty-mile radius could hear them.” Ali said. We all chuckle and talk for a little while longer before calling it a night. Hannah and I make it to our room and fall onto it. I fall asleep with my woman wrapped in my arms and not a care in the world.

It’s been two weeks since we came home from St. Thomas. The trip was everything we could have wanted and more. The rest of the members decided to take advantage of the villa and left last week. They’ll be back before Christmas. My brother officially became the head of the family. Wendy is living with Jackson and I now. She loves her new room. Abe has been staying with us as well. He’s planning on getting his own place, but there’s been talk about him starting a new charter for vets in Kentucky, so he doesn’t want to buy a place here and end up moving. Ali is seven months pregnant now and Lyndsay is three months along. She finally started showing and she is absolutely glowing.

Today is the day that Jackson and I are going to the courthouse to get married, but first I’m here at the clinic for an appointment. Ali and I took the day off so we could be at the courthouse. Her and Axyl are standing up for us as our witnesses. I wouldn’t want anyone else to stand up for me. She’s my best friend and I couldn’t do it without her. We haven’t heard anything from Blake or Sierra since before we left for St. Thomas and I’m nervous about that. I have a feeling they want us to let our guard down before they strike, but they should know that when there is a threat, I never let my guard down.

I didn’t want to mention anything to Jackson about how I’ve been feeling because he would worry. I’m not sure what’s going on, but I have a decent idea and so does Aliana. It’s why she’s here with me. She’s my support. “Are you worried? Excited?”

“I’m nervous. We talked about babies, but what if he thinks it’s too soon?” I panic.

“Girl, he would have put a baby in you that first day if you let him.” She retorts.

“You’re right. I don’t know why I’m freaking out.” Before she can reply the doctor comes in.

“Congratulations Dr. Mason. You’re pregnant. If I had to guess from the information you gave me, you’re about three weeks along and that would put your due date in August.”

“Thanks Dr. Heart.” He walks out of the room. That’s what I love about Dr. Heart. He’s direct and to the point. He gets in and gets out, but he’s not an emotionless pig either. He does his job well and is actually requested for by a lot of patients. Ali and I look at each other before we start squealing.

“I’m going to be a mama!” We rush out of the clinic and into the car after setting up an appointment for the eight-week ultrasound with our in-house OB/GYN. We’re supposed to meet the guys at the courthouse in an hour, but before then we’re meeting our moms at the diner.

“Our kids will only be six months apart! Oh gosh this is fucking awesome.” Ali exclaims.

“You’ve been saying that a lot.” I chuckle. She just shrugs as we pull in the parking lot of the diner, which is full of bikes. Bikers and their bikes. It doesn’t matter that it’s in the single digits, they still ride their bikes. They won’t let us ride it because it’s too cold, but they’ll ride them.

“Looks like you’ll get to tell everyone at once.” Ali quips. I nod and we make our way inside the diner. As we walk in, we see our family sitting in the back. After making our way over to them, Jackson brings me into his lap. I place a heated kiss on his lips as everyone hoots and hollers.

“Hello princess. How was the doctor?” Jackson asks. Do I tell him now? I have something planned for his Christmas present.

“It was good.” I say instead. I shoot Aliana a look and she nods. She’ll keep my secret.

“I have a feeling you’re hiding something from me, but I’ll let you tell me when you’re ready.” He says. I nod and kiss him again.

“What’s everyone doing here?” I question.

“You didn’t think we would miss you getting married, did you?” My dad says. I shouldn’t be surprised. We talk for a little while before we all head to the courthouse. It’s time for me to become Mrs. Jackson Johnson and I can’t wait. We decided to not have a honeymoon since we just got back from St. Thomas until after the holidays and all this shit is over with Blake and Sierra. I hope this all gets resolved soon. I don’t want it to ruin everything the family has planned. We have two weddings coming up and a baby coming soon. Things are going great, but I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop. I have a feeling it’ll drop soon, but I’m not going to let it ruin my day. Today is my day and no one is going to ruin it.

We all arrive at the courthouse and make our way inside. They ended up having to move us to a bigger room since there were so many of us. We stand up in front of the justice of the peace and before I know it, it’s time for us to say our vows. Jackson is the one that goes first.

“Hannah. Princess. You mean everything to me. I don’t know what I would do without you in my life. From the moment I laid my eyes on you, I knew you were it for me. You captured my heart that day and have had it ever since. You make me the happiest man on this planet and the chemistry between us is on fire. I promise to love, protect, and care for you until I take my last breath. You’re it for me pretty girl. I can’t imagine spending my life with anyone else. I never knew what was missing in my life until you came. You’re the light to my darkness, the soft to my hard, and the one that makes my heart beat. I love you princess.” Tears threaten to leak down my face. Not just from the hormones, but from the man standing in front of me.

It’s my turn. I clear my throat a few times so I can talk. Hopefully my voice comes out steady. “Jackson. My anchor. When I go into that place in my mind, you always bring me back. I knew from the first time I saw you that I was in trouble. You had me captured. I wasn’t looking for anything serious, but one time with you wasn’t enough. I’m not sure a lifetime with you will never be enough. I promise to love you, support you, and bring you back from the darkest pits until my last breath. You healed my battered heart and made me realize that what I was doing wasn’t living. It was hiding. You brought me back to myself. You’re the best thing to ever happen to me. I love you Jackson. With everything I have.” I don’t stop the tears that fall down my cheeks as I talk. I don’t hear the rest of what was said and before I know it, Jackson is smashing his lips to mine.

“It is my pleasure to introduce you to Mr. and Mrs. Jackson Johnson. May you have many years of happiness.” We did it. I finally got to marry my best friend. The man that owns my entire being. We walk in between our families as they clap and cheer. The women, and some of the men, have tears in their eyes. I’m glad my family was here to celebrate this day with us.

We all make it back to the clubhouse and I didn’t think of what I would do when I was offered a drink. Luckily, Ali came up with a quick response. “She can’t drink because I can’t drink. We made a deal that she wouldn’t drink until I could.” I send her a grateful look and lean back into Jackson’s chest.

“I think I know what’s going on here. No drinking, the doctor’s appointment. Is there something you want to tell me?” Jackson whispers in my ear.

“Not that I’m aware of. I only went to the doctor to get my annual physical. Nothing serious babe. If there was, I would tell you. Besides, I want to be sober for my wedding night.”

“I’ll let it slide for now. Just know, you have a punishment coming tonight for lying to me.” He growls, causing desire to flood my body. I love his punishments.
