“I don’t know. I’m pretty good at reading people, and that kid is giving mob boss vibes,” Finn said.

“I agree. I’m fairly certain he’s the kid who stole my goody bag off the table when I was eating.” Hugh shrugged.

“Speaking of rule breakers…” Brinkley narrowed her gaze at Finn. “You’re the only one who hasn’t gotten your final fitting for your tux. My wedding is in two weeks, you slacker.”

For once, she wasn’t giving me shit. Presley had dragged me down to the tailor’s to get my fitting done last week.

“Hey. I’m with child. My mind is all over the place.”

Hugh’s head fell back in laughter. “Your wife is carrying a baby. You can’t keep using that excuse.”

“Really? Well, guys, Hugh and Lila are pregnant. But it’s a big secret.” Finn had a wicked grin on his face.

“You asshole. I was going to tell you guys at dinner on Sunday. No one knows. We just found out this morning.”

Georgia and Brinkley both lunged at the big ole teddy bear and hugged him.

“Well, now I feel guilty,” Georgia said.

“Why?” Brinkley asked.

“I’ve got a bun in the oven, too. We wanted to wait until after your wedding to announce it. So, keep this between us for now.”

“Oh, man, Cage looks like he’s going to start crying again. All these babies are making the big grump weepy.” Finn dodged my hand when I tried to twist his ear off his fucking head.

“It’s the sun shining in my eyes,” I said, and they all burst into laughter.

I looked up to see Presley walking toward me, and her gaze locked with mine.

I was the happiest man in the world, there was no denying it.

And I didn’t care who knew it.

Gracie had gone to Piper’s house for a sleepover, and Presley and I had taken the boat out on the water to watch the sun go down. I couldn’t take my eyes off her wearing this sexy white bikini.

I pulled over at my favorite spot in the cove and tugged my wife to her feet. I picked her up and held her like a baby before I jumped off the side of the boat. She squealed as we flew through the air and plunged into the cool water.

My hands found her waist, and I pulled her up with me as our heads broke through the surface of the water.

“Hey, Mrs. Reynolds,” I said, as she pushed her wet, long hair away from her face.

“Hey yourself, Mr. Reynolds. You’re going to pay for that.”

“You know how much I like it when you’re wet,” I teased, and she nipped at my bottom lip.

“Such a filthy mouth, Cowboy.”

“And you fucking love it.”

“I do.”

“Thanks for marrying me, baby.”

“Thanks for loving me.”

“Always have. Always will.” I moved us a few feet from where the boat was docked until my feet hit the bottom of the ocean floor, and my hands moved to her ass and lifted. Her legs wrapped around my waist.
