“Hey.” Kelli leaned closer and tilted her head into his view. “Earth to Nox.”
“Sorry.” He smiled. “I was taking it all in. You did an amazing job.”
“Thank you.” She leaned closer. “But we have to cut the cake, darling.”
He looked across the hall at the four-tiered cake. They cut the dessert, and Kelli slid a piece toward him. He grabbed a fork and offered her a bite. While she moaned over it, he kissed her, spilling cake onto the floor.
The music started, and they danced together with Violet in their arms. Her little giggles and laughter filled Kelli’s heart as Nox spun them around.
The sun had started to settle, casting warm colors over the land. He studied his new wife, drinking her in. “When do we leave for our honeymoon?” he asked, holding her face against his shoulder. He was eager to get her alone.
“Tonight, as soon as we are done here.”
He smiled, looking around. He saw his brother dancing with his wife and Violet, who was half asleep now. She had been running around most of the day, and she was going to sleep well that night.
Kelli’s parents were dancing as well, laughing and chatting in the distance. He liked how he could see that they were still madly in love with each other, even years later. He hoped that would be them thirty years in the future.
Her sister was dancing with a groomsman and laughing. He could almost say he saw a spark between them but didn’t want to jinx it.
The pack was enjoying the wedding, and from the looks, he could tell everyone loved Kelli as much as he did. Being the alpha meant all eyes were on him, and now they would be on her as well. But he knew she would be able to handle it.
“Hey,” she whispered into his ear. “Let’s go into the photo booth. I have something to show you.”
His interest was piqued, and they made a beeline off the dance floor to the booth in the back corner. They slipped inside, and he looked around at all the little props and signs you could hold up.
“What did you want to show me?” he asked, looking back at her. His eyes froze as he watched her hike up her dress to show him the garter.
“I believe it’s customary for the man to take it off with his teeth.”
He blinked.
“Normally in front of people, but Elise said I didn’t have to do that.”
He swallowed, seeing just a few inches higher were some white lace panties. His cock grew painfully hard.
He slid his hand up, cupping her ass and sliding her closer to him. He listened as her breath spiked.
“And what if I want more than just slipping the garter off? What if I want to slip myself inside you and fuck my wife?”
He saw lust filling her eyes, but she swallowed, shaking her head. “You will have to wait until the honeymoon.”
He didn’t think he could. He bent down and ran his teeth over her thigh until he caught the garter. He slowly slid it down her leg until he slipped it off.
He looked back up at her, seeing her rosy face. He gave her a smirk. “Are you still wanting to wait?” he asked in a husky voice.
He waved the garter at her. “Because I certainly want you.”
The sudden knock on the booth made her jump, and he frowned. He couldn’t win. She chuckled, leaning over, and gave him a kiss. “We leave in a few hours, and after that, you can have me however you want me.”
He smirked. “Naked and shaking.” He was going to have precisely that.
FORTY-THREE
KELLI
They left the wedding, finished their last-minute preparations, and headed on their honeymoon at just a little after nine. Nox drove them to the airport and his private jet. They flew to his property on the east coast of Virginia. She was stunned when she saw the yacht waiting for them at his private dock.
She knew of the plans and expected the boat, but she was still surprised when she saw how big it was. “Wow,” she said as they stepped onto it.
