“I… show them how different options look and… ask what their mate would want,” Ryan stutters.

“Aisling always looks put together and beautiful, even when she’s not trying,” Aiden says. “She’s busy, so she wouldn’t want anything that would get caught on things.”

“Okay,” Ryan wheezes. I hope the asshole doesn’t have a heart attack. Fuck. “Do you want a wedding ring as well?”

Caelin blinks at the question, but I nod.

“She deserves a vacation, may as well be our wedding,” I grunt. “We’ll take her away and surprise her with one. It’ll be just us, with zero stress. If we don’t do it all, I’ll start freaking out again. I doubt we’ll get Ryan to work with us twice.”

“Can we get a wedding ring with orchids engraved in it with diamonds?” Aiden suddenly asks. Evan blushes, knowing why he’s asking. Even now, our alpha takes care of us all.

I wonder how long it’ll take until Aisling asks about his tattoo.

“Yes, I can do that,” Ryan says, looking at us funny.

“That diamond is pretty,” Evan says, pointing at what appears to be a four carat diamond. The brilliance is beautiful. He has a good eye.

“What would a floating band look like?” I ask, beginning to imagine her future ring.

“You all have really put some thought into this,” Ryan mutters. The bands are magnetic, allowing the diamond to sit on it for a visual depiction.

“She’s our forever,” Aiden murmurs. “Even though we just decided to do this, we know what she’d like.”

“Fair enough,” he says, showing it to us.

“I like it,” I tell them, and my pack nods. “How soon can you have it for us, Ryan? I know this is custom and takes longer?—”

“A week,” he interrupts. “Don't you want to know the price?”

“Doesn’t matter,” Aiden says. “Do you need anything else from us? Aisling should be home soon.”

“No, I’m good,” Ryan says, watching as we leave.

Sometimes, appearances are deceiving.

Chapter 37

Aisling

Two weeks later

Climbing the stairs,I glance around for the guys as I walk.

“Hello?” I call out, knowing their cars are in the garage.

“In here, Princess,” Aiden calls out.

Following his voice, I find him in the main bedroom. Since we bonded, I spend my nights between here and my nest. Sometimes I sleep in a snuggle pile in their room, and others with just a few of them in my nest. It just depends on who I need at that point.

The guys are happy to spend one on one time when they’re together, and it seems to be working.

Aiden is in a towel as he steps out of the bathroom, and I swear it feels as if I’ve swallowed my tongue. I should be used to how gorgeous he is, with his sculpted abs and thick, strong thighs, but I’m not.

“Close your mouth, baby girl,” he says teasingly, dropping the towel. I hardly ever see him in much light, since my nest has special bulbs. However, in the bright sunlight streaming through the windows, I can clearly see his tattoo.

“That’s gorgeous,” I whisper, walking closer until I drop to my knees.

“Aisling,” he growls, his cock bobbing in my face.
