We were finally in love.
Chapter Thirty-One
RIFF
Ihad never told a woman I loved her before.
Not by accident.
Not in a momentary glitch after great sex.
Never.
It never even occurred to me to say it either.
With Fiona?
Everything was different with her.
And for the record - I meant it.
Such a heavy thing to carry about in secrecy too.
At practice, Wren showed up.
Izzy at her side.
Her belly getting nice and round with the new baby.
Abel being an amazing father as always.
Getting Izzy her own ice skates.
Bright pink with black skulls on them.
He got her onto the ice and helped - mostly carried - her around.
He even got her a custom sized small hockey stick with her name on it.
Of courseUncle Mavhad to make sure Izzy scored a goal on him.
Watching Maverick move slow and pretending not to see the puck, then quickly hitting it into the net with his own foot… made me smile.
I even caught Remi staring.
I thought for a second the big prick would smile and enjoy the moment.
From the corner of my eye I saw Lay with Wren.
Which wasn’t exactly a good thing.
I skated to save Wren.
Even if it was a little too late.
“The milk seems like it’s coming in evenly,” Lay said. “Which I guess is good. Which side do you get the most out of?”
By now Wren knew how to handle Lay.
