I wish it was me getting ready to pledge my love to my soulmate.

CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE

GREER

“I’d liketo raise a toast to one of the best men I know and the woman who has made him even better. To Owen and Sophie, may your best days be ahead of you, all of your heartaches be behind you, and today be a day you’ll always cherish.”

Ross raises his glass and everyone joins him, toasting my best friend and her new husband.

“You’re married,” I whisper into Sophie’s ear a few minutes later, once the room resumes its regular programming of happy conversations and music.

Even Warner and Kitty Callahan seem to be enjoying themselves tonight.

She giggles, biting down on her bottom lip and shaking her head. “I know. It’s so crazy, but also, I feel like I’ve always been his, you know?”

I do. I can actually say I know what that feels like because even though Mack and I haven’t professed our love to each other, I feel it. Every time he looks at me, I can see it. And even when he’s not near me, there’s this subtle pull in my heart that reminds me he’s still there.

“We’re now going to have the bride and groom’s first dance as husband and wife,” the DJ announces as we all watch Owen and Sophie take the make-shift dance floor.

Most of the players from the Revelers team are in attendance, most with a plus one.

There are people I’ve known for years, mixed in with new friends I’ve made since becoming Mack’s girlfriend and also taking on the role as the correspondent for the team.

Owen’s parents are here, along with his sister.

The room is filled with so much love and that is never more prevalent than the moment, Owen dips her and kisses his bride.

“Now, we’d like to invite everyone else to the dance floor,” the DJ says as the song changes into something more upbeat. “Let’s celebrate these two lovebirds.”

Mack stands and pulls me to his side. “It’s our time to shine.”

Practically dragging me to the dance floor, he spins me and dips me, before bringing me back and hitting me with that smirk that only Mack Granger can give.

It’s panty-melting.

Life-changing.

And it’s all mine.

He’s all mine.

Leaning forward, I brush my lips against his, loving the feel of his scruff on my cheeks. “I had no idea all these moves were hiding under those muscles.”

“Oh, baby. I have moves you’ve never seen before.” His voice is low and gravelly, pure sin. “Just give me a couple more shots of whiskey and I will blow your mind.”

I laugh, tilting my head back as Mack dips to place a kiss right below my ear.

“Save it for the bedroom,” I tease, running my fingers through the hair at the nape of his neck.

“What about that bathroom down the hall?” His words are a low whisper, his breath brushing my ear, and it makes my stomach dip and my heart flutter. “I’ll be fast. But not too fast,” he purrs. “I’ll lick that sweet pussy until you come so hard you see stars and then I’ll fill you with my cock and get you off one more time before I finish deep inside you.”

Before I can give into his salacious offer, Sophie is standing beside me. “Would you mind helping me change into my reception dress? I would have Owen do it, but… well, we probably wouldn’t make it back, if you know what I mean.”

Mack groans and I can’t help but laugh.

“Duty calls,” I tell him with an apologetic smile. But before I follow Sophie off the dance floor, I lean in and give him a quick, but searing kiss. A kiss that promises I’ll be taking him up on his proposal, along with any others he might want to offer, as soon as possible.

Once Sophie and I are away from the crowd, she sighs. “What a day, huh?”
