"You good?" I murmur, resisting the urge to take her hand.

She nods, giving me a watery smile. "Aye. Just... been a while since I've seen something so beautiful."

I want to tell her she's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen, but I bite my tongue.

Instead, I nudge her gently with my shoulder. "Careful there, Ghost. Your soft side is showing."

She huffs out a laugh, discreetly wiping at her eyes. "Tell anyone and I'll gut you in your sleep."

"Wouldn't dream of it." I grin.

We fall silent as the ceremony begins.

Sakura officiates, her usual gruff demeanor softened by the obvious joy radiating from the couple before her.

I find myself only half-listening to the vows, too distracted by the warmth of Aggie's arm pressed against mine.

When it's time for the kiss, the crowd erupts in cheers.

I whoop and holler with the rest of them, watching as Shiver dips Siren low.

It's a picture-perfect moment, the kind you see in movies.

As the newlyweds make their way back down the aisle, a fleet of four-wheelers and side-by-sides roar to life.

The reception awaits, set up further out in the desert.

I turn to Aggie, offering her my arm with an exaggerated flourish. "Shall we, milady?"

She rolls her eyes but takes it anyway. "I suppose someone's got to keep you out of trouble."

We make our way to one of the fourwheelers, and I hop on, holding a hand for Aggie.

She gets up, tucking the skirt of her dress below her.

The drive is short but exhilarating, wind whipping through our hair as we tear across the sand.

I can't help sneaking glances at Aggie.

She's let her hair down, wild curls streaming behind her in the wind.

The reception area comes into view, and I can't help but let out a low whistle.

Shiver and Siren have really outdone themselves.

Tables are scattered across the desert floor, draped in crisp white linens that flutter in the breeze.

Twinkling lights are strung overhead, creating a canopy of stars that will shine even brighter once the sun sets.

At the center of it all stands a massive dance floor, surrounded by high-top tables and a bar that looks like it could serve an army.

"Holy shit," I mutter, helping Aggie down from our ride. "This is something else."

She nods, her eyes wide as she takes it all in. "Never thought I'd see the day when a biker wedding looked like it belonged in a fancy magazine."

I chuckle, guiding her towards one of the tables. "Yeah, well, Shiver's always been one for surprises. He told Siren she could have anything she wanted, and it looks like he followed through."

Aggie leans in close, her breath tickling my ear.
