I was worried somebody would hear us, but everyone was outside. His movements became faster and harder, more urgent and stronger. It didn’t take long for my body to let go, and I couldn’t stop my head from falling back. Giving him the leeway to kiss and suck along my neck stirred more sensations that coursed through my body.
“Fuck yeah… just like that… come on my cock with your sweet fucking pussy that’s mine…”
“I’m yours.”
His filthy words were my undoing, causing me to come again and bring him right over the edge along with me.
“I love you,” I repeated, needing him to hear it for all the months I couldn’t express it to him.
I owed him so much.
He turned me over, laying me down to kiss my lips.
“I should have done this eleven years ago, and I fucking hate that another man claimed what was always mine to begin with. I’ll spend the rest of my life making it up to you. I hope this room no longer causes you pain. Instead, I hope you remember when you became my soon-to-be wife.”
“I can’t wait.”
“Neither can I. I love you, sugar.” He kissed all over my face.
“I love you, too.”
He didn’t stop there. Once the party was over, he took me home and made love to me all night long. Where I’d become his wife and we’re finally…
A family.

Ledger
“You sure you’re ready to do this?” Chance asked, standing behind beside me in my backyard.
“I’ve never been more ready for anything in all my life.”
He smiled. “I can’t believe you’re doing this, and she has no idea.”
Six weeks had flown by, and as soon as Hazel finished her wedding dress a few days ago, I put my plan into action. She thought we’d go to the courthouse later this week since Hallie was due in another two, but I would never do that to her. She deserved so much more than a courthouse wedding.
I couldn’t wait to see her face. Everyone who mattered was there in attendance. Her parents still hadn’t come around, but I didn’t let that deter me from what I had to do. There wasn’t anything I wanted more in this world than to have Hazel take my last name.
“Ledger,” she called out, making her way outside.
She stopped dead in her tracks when she saw me standing there with Chance by my side.
“Oh my God!”
Everyone shouted, “Surprise!”
Her hand flew to her mouth, and she burst into tears. “You’re surprising me with a wedding?”
Hazel and Cove rushed to her side. Hazel said, “We need to get you dressed.”
I winked at her and watched them take her away only to bring her back dressed in a lacy off-white gown that was perfect. As soon as I saw my girl coming down the aisle to become Mrs. Beckham, all I thought about was how fucking lucky I was. My eyes never left her the entire time.
She was stunning.
Breathtaking.
Her hair was in soft waves, framing her face, while her train trailed behind her dress and was at least five feet long, blowing in the soft breeze. She was classy, elegant, and so goddamn sexy, making my cock twitch at the mere sight of her.
I smiled a reassuring smile as Chance placed her hand in mine. He was the one that gave her away and then moved to stand beside me as my best man.
“You take care of my sister,” he whispered in my ear. “Just know, I would have forgiven you back then, and I forgive you now.”
It meant a lot to me that he said that. Our friendship was better, and we were getting back to that place we once were where he trusted me, specifically with his sister. They always shared a special bond, and I hated that I may have come between them for a couple of months. Although, you wouldn’t know that with how they were with one another now.
The minister proceeded, and when we got to the part where we exchanged our vows, I peered deep into her eyes and shared what was in my soul. “Hazel, I’ll be forever grateful to call you, my wife. I don't know what I did to deserve you, but I promise you I will spend forever showing you how thankful I really am that you’re the love of my life and the mother of my children. I don’t know how I lived without you for so long and I thank God every day that he gave me a second chance with you. You own my heart, body, and soul. I love you. You’re my everything.”
She was crying, but she’d never looked more beautiful to me.
“Ledger, words cannot express how much I love you. I never imagined we’d make it here, but that didn’t stop me from hoping we eventually would. I can’t wait to start this new journey together. You’re everything I ever wanted and didn’t think I’d have. I will forever stand by your side, not only as your wife but as your best friend and family. Your family means everything to me and I’m so grateful to have them too. I love and cherish you in ways I’ve only read about in books. You’re my soulmate, my Prince Charming, and happily ever after and I’m—” she grabbed her stomach and seconds later…
