“How can you know when I’ve never said it?”
“Riss, I know ya love me, don’t need the fucking words.”
“Well, I do,” she whispered.
“Again, I sound like a fucking recording, but yeah, I know that’s why I said it. You need to hear it, then that’s what I’ll give ya, so ya know.”
“This is not romantic at all,” she teased.
“Babe, you ain’t with me ’cause I’m charming as fuck.”
She giggled, dropping her face against his chest. She mumbled. “As fuck? You’ve been spending too much time with Drake.”
He looked over at the clock. “Time for bed.”
“Cade.”
“Riss. No more talking. I got other things I gotta take care of.”
He rolled her over on her back, pressing his cock into her pussy.
She giggled. “I hope it’s me.”
He smirked. “It’s definitely you.”
Chapter Twenty-One
Marissa Reilly.
She smiled, staring down at her ring. The small diamond shimmered against the sunlight through the truck window. It wasn’t extravagant or flashy, but it was the most beautiful ring she’d ever seen. The engagement diamond settled next to her wedding band. Perfect.
The wedding had happened with little warning. Caden had proposed a month ago, and she was still on the fence with wanting anything big. It was the first for both of them, but Caden said he didn’t care, it was whatever she wanted. All he wanted was for her to be his wife. With no family, it seemed silly to go the traditional route and have a reception. The decision was made for them last week when she found out she was pregnant. They hadn’t been trying but weren’t necessarily taking precautions to prevent it.
She had grappled with her mixed emotions. She was beyond excited to have a baby one minute, and the next minute plagued with guilt. Another baby wouldn’t replace the child she’d lost, but it felt wrong to celebrate. It would be something she’d have to work through. Luckily, she had the perfect partner. She glanced over at Caden, who was driving through Ghosttown. She reached out and took his hand. My husband.
“I love being married to you.”
Caden burst out laughing. “Babe, we’ve only been married for an hour. Let’s see if you’re still saying that in twenty years.”
Marissa smiled and glanced out the window. I will. They had decided a quick justice of the peace ceremony was best. Just her, Caden, Jack, and Trevor. Kase had been invited, but he couldn’t make it. None of the men seemed bothered by his absence, but Marissa couldn’t help feeling a surge of disappointment. She’d thought she’d turned a milestone with Kase, a small bond. She settled in her seat. I guess not. It shouldn’t have bothered her, but it did. They were family now, yet Kase couldn’t make it to the town hall for twenty minutes? It was especially annoying when Caden announced he needed to stop by the clubhouse before heading home.
Jack and Trevor were staying for the weekend in Ghosttown to give Caden and Marissa the house to themselves for a little at-home honeymoon.
Caden turned the corner, driving down the long country road and then turning left up the hill. He waved to two prospects who were near the gate. The minute they passed, one of the guys grabbed his phone, bringing it up to his ear.
The lot in front was packed. Marissa scanned the area. Aside from all the motorcycles, there were quite a few cars and trucks. However, no one was outside. Usually when they visited, there were people milling around the yard. Not today.
“Are they having a party?”
Caden smirked but didn’t look at her. “Seems like it.” He pulled to the side of the house and got out of the truck. Marissa glanced around again, finding it extremely odd, for as many cars in the lot, not one person was visible.
Caden opened her door wide and reached out his hand. She smiled.
“I can just wait here.”
Caden snorted. “No.”
She frowned. “Why not?”
