“What does she mean our wedding will be televised?”
Devin rubs a hand on the back of his neck. “I’m alpha. So, uh, all the wolf shifters are going to want to see. It’s not like we could invite every single wolf shifter to our wedding.”
My heart pounds faster and my palms feel sweaty. “Can we just elope?”
He rubs his hands down my arms, trying to get me to calm down. “Don’t worry. It’ll be fine, you’ll see. More people watched the court case than will watch our wedding. Probably.”
Probably?
“Yeah, but I didn’t know anybody was watching that day in court.” I worry my bottom lip between my teeth.
Am I really ready for this?
One look into Devin’s green eyes and I know I am. I can’t wait to marry him. I just wish the entire supernatural world wouldn’t be watching our wedding live on TV. Talk about intimidating.
“Don’t worry. I’ll be standing beside you the entire time,” Devin says.
I relax at his words.
“Though nobody will be looking at me when I’m standing next to you.”
I swallow hard. I know he meant that as a compliment, but now I’m freaking out even more.
“I thought you were trying to talk me out of eloping, not into it.”
He chuckles, kissing the top of my head.
I know that I’ll do it, no matter how many people are watching. So what if the world is watching? Let them all see that Devin ismine.
I still miss them.
I don’t think I realized just how tense Devin was. Since Damian declared we don’t have to wait until summer to get married, Devin has been completely relaxed. He’s almost euphoric. Even his wolf seems more chill.
Before, Devin was having to go for a run every single day. When the time comes for his usual run, he instead stays home to hang out with me. His wolf is satisfied.
Devin and I sit on the back porch. It’s a little chilly out tonight, so Devin puts a blanket over the top of us. I snuggle into his side, stealing his warmth. No matter how cold it is, Devin is always warm.
I sigh, leaning further into his side. “You’re so warm.”
“Your hands are like ice.” He grabs them and rubs them between his own hands, trying to warm them up.
“If I were going to get any wolf shifter trait, I’d want the trait that keeps me warm,” I complain.
He chuckles, shaking his head.
I glance into his green eyes. “Are you nervous?”
He cocks an eyebrow. “About what?”
“Uh, marrying me.” Itshouldbe obvious what I’m talking about.
“Why would I be nervous about that?” He looks genuinely confused that I’d even ask.
I play with a loose string on the blanket. “I don’t know. I guess because it’s a lifelong commitment.”
“A lifelong commitment to the person I can’t live without.” He nudges my chin so that I look up at him. “You’re my soulmate. Trust me, I’m not nervous.”
My heart skips a beat.
