“Uh, girl, you better because I get the gist of what you are up to, but I have a million and one questions. Good luck, and go get your biker, babe.”

Winter ended the call, and Sloane handed me my phone.

Her eyes connected with mine, and finally saw my best friend staring back at me. “I’m getting married.”

Chapter Nineteen

Throttle

“Once all this bullshit is behind us, Sloane and I are doing this again, but back home.”

I drained my beer and crushed it. “Okay?” Their wedding today seemed pretty fucking perfect to me. I didn’t know why he wanted to do it again.

Aero and I were on the back deck of the cottage, leaning against the railing with the sun setting in front of us. “Don’t get me wrong, man, today was perfect, but it would have been even better to have my brothers and family surrounding us.”

“You weren’t a fan of Mercury being the officiant and Ice in the back consoling Hannah while she cried?” I chuckled. “I’ve never seen a chick cry so much when she’s happy.” Hannah had said she was going to invite the whole club but decided it probably wasn’t the best to have a room full of people we didn’t know watch Aero and Sloane marry.

“Yeah,” Aero sighed. “Thank god Dove and Sloane aren’t criers.”

“Why not have a big ass party to celebrate?” I suggested. “People do that, don’t they? When I was in high school, I had a friend whose sister ran off to Hawaii or some shit to get married, and when they got back, they had a big ol’ party. It was a fucking amazing party, too.”

Aero nodded and tipped his head to the side. “That would work. And you and I both know the Iron Fiends know how to throw a party.”

That we did. “But you might want to discuss this with Sloane, seeing as you married her,” I advised.

“Shut up,” Aero chuckled. “And I plan on running it by her.”

My phone buzzed in my pocket, and I pulled it out to see Head Dick on the screen.

“You know Yarder is going to kick your ass if he ever sees what you have him saved as in your phone,” Aero chuckled.

I shrugged and connected the call to speaker. “Hello?”

“Did she actually say yes, or is Aero crying in his beer?” Yarder asked.

“Fuck you,” Aero called. “She said yes.”

“Good, good,” Yarder laughed. “She must not be as smart as I thought if she actually went through with it.”

“You got a reason for calling other than giving me shit on my wedding day?” Aero grunted.

“Got a wedding present for you. Actually, a present for both of you.”

I tipped my head to the side. “I didn’t get married, Yarder.”

“Yeah, yeah, not yet. I give it a month before you’re headed down the aisle just like Aero.” Yarder chuckled. “Cue Ball might beat you to it first.”

“Uh, what?” I asked.

“Don’t play stupid, Throttle. I do talk to Aero when you aren’t around.”

“You bastard,” I growled at Aero. I was going to tell Yarder about me and Dove, but I hadn’t had the time yet. It’s not like it was going to matter what Yarder thought about it.

Aero shrugged. “It wasn’t like you guys were hiding it. The whole cottage could hear you two in the shower this morning.” Aero tipped his head to the side. “The camera crew, too. Yarder needed a heads-up about what was going on. It’s probably for the best anyway, so now you and Dove can be the ones distracting the camera crew.”

“Dove’s dad being the state attorney general is probably going to help with that,” Yarder growled. “I don’t know how the hell that one is going to play out on TV, but there isn’t much we can do about it now.”
