“Yes.” She grins widely.
Now I understand why Devin went for a run this morning. HeknewMonica was going to bombard me with this.
When Devin gets back, I’m going to murder him.
I take a sip of the coffee. “Why don’t you ask Devin? You know, it is his wedding too. Why should the female have all the say?”
She rolls her eyes. “You think I didn’t ask for his input? The only thing he said is he picked his bride—his job is done.”
“Seriously?” I let out an annoyed huff. “He didn’t even choose me—fate chose me for him. And fate chose him a mate who really doesn’t care what her wedding is like.”
“You two are so much alike.” She taps her pen against the notebook. “What is your favorite color?”
I shrug one shoulder. “I don’t know. Black.”
She narrows her eyes. “Your favorite color can’t be black.”
“It is.” I take a sip of my coffee.
“You can’t have a black wedding.”
“Why not?” I ask. “Black and white is elegant. If I’m having to invite all these supernatural leaders to my wedding, it may as well be fancy.”
“Fine.” She scribbles down the words ‘black and white’ on her paper. “What kind of flowers do you like?”
I shrug. “Hydrangeas have always been my favorite. Nico’s mom grew them in the garden when we were kids. After she died, that is where Nico and I would go when we wanted to remember her.”
She nods. “White hydrangeas it is.”
I grin. “That’ll be pretty.”
“See, youdocare.” She shoots me a smug look.
“But I really don’t.” I sigh. “I’ll answer your questions, but I really don’t want to plan a wedding. Can’t we just hire somebody to do it?”
She gives me a curt nod. “Fine. If you answer my questions, I’ll hire somebody and make sure you never have to do any wedding planning.”
I let out a breath of relief. “Thank you. I know it’s terrible, but I’m not into all this girly stuff. I just want to marry the man of my dreams and start living. The wedding is a necessary evil.”
She chuckles. “A necessary evil. Wow. You really are an alpha’s mate.”
I take a sip of my coffee, unsure what to say to that.
“Didn’t you ever dream of your wedding when you were a kid?”
“No.” I snort. “You’re joking, right? I’ve known my entire life that my father was going to arrange a marriage for me. I did everything I could to avoid thinking about weddings and marriage.”
“Then we have a lot of work to do,” she says.
I turn in my chair so that I’m facing her. “I want a wedding on the beach. I don’t want to wear shoes. And I want to spend the rest of my life with Devin. Other than that, I don’t care about any of it.”
“What if it’s raining on your wedding day? Don’t you want a backup plan?”
“Nah.” I shake my head. “I don’t care if I get wet. Besides, my grandfather is the elemental king. Certainly he knows an elemental who can cause the rain to bypass our island until after the wedding.”
She nods thoughtfully. “I wish I would’ve thought of that. There was a blizzard when Damian and I got married.”
“It snows a lot in Alaska, huh?”
