The driver doesn’t rush it, but Oliver does.

“Autumn, you better get your ass in here so we can get you wedding ready.” He leans against the door of the salon they rented for the entire day.

I turn back to Zane, sucking in a deep breath.

“What is it?” He searches my face. “You can tell me.”

“This isn’t right,” I whisper.

Chapter 31

Zane

“No, not like that,” she says, climbing back into the SUV. The door closes behind her and we sit silently for a few seconds. I study her, not sure where this is going, but my heart might lurch out of my chest. Had I misread her intentions? Or the entire situation? Is this where she walks away?

“Zane,” she whispers, gently placing her hands on my cheeks, forcing me to look into her eyes. “Don’t ever doubt the way I feel about you. I’m not going anywhere.Ever.”

“Okay,” I say with a relieved breath, and she slowly paints her lips across mine, pouring every part of herself into me. “Please explain.”

“Las Vegas isn’t where we’re supposed to be. It feels all wrong.”

I breathe out with a nod.

“Why didn’t you speak up?”

“Because I want you to be happy, Pumpkin. I would marry you right here. I don’t care.”

I stare into her golden-brown eyes, tucking loose strands of hair behind her ear. “Where do you want to go? Anywhere in the goddamn world.”

After a soft sigh, she closes her eyes. “Cozy Hollow.”

I give her a sly smile. “I had a feeling you were going to say that.”

Harper plops down next to me, drinking a whiskey on the rocks. “Go ahead and say it.”

I shake my head at her.

“Oh, come on, you know I predicted where you and Autumn would get married down to the location.” She shoots back the whiskey. “But you doubted me.”

I exhale. “I did.”

“Did you doubt she was the one?”

“No, I just doubted your prediction being one hundred percent correct.”

She laughs. “You should be glad I booked the helicopter service for you just in case. You’ll have to owe me one.”

I roll my eyes. “And what would’ve happened if we hadn’t used it?”

“It would’ve cost you.” She shrugs. “You’re good for it.”

“Thank you, though. I’m not sure we could’ve pulled it off at the last minute.”

“It helped tremendously; the resort had no one scheduled for mountain tours today. It worked out like it was destined.”

“And you found someone to officiate?”
