“Somewhere I can have you all to myself.” His heated gaze slid down to my cleavage. “Did I tell you how beautiful you’re looking in that dress? More than I’d imagined you’d look.”

I blushed.

Alone with him to have him all to myself?

Tingles ran down my body as unholy thoughts flashed across my mind. The idea sounded tempting.

“Thank you. But we can’t. The reception.”

“I don’t care. Now that I finally have you in my arms, I don’t want to let go of you.” He placed a sensual kiss on my neck, arms tightening around me.

A moan threatened to leave my lips.

I had to stop him before I lost my control. We couldn’t do anything right now. At least not until the reception was over.

“You can have me all to yourself after the reception is over. Everyone must be looking for us. We need to go outside.” I tugged at his hair gently.

He groaned, latching his mouth on my throat. “I don’t want to. I need you, Rosebud. I need you right now. I’ve waited so long.” The last sentence came out like a breathy whisper.

I clenched my thighs at his deep voice. No matter how much I wanted to stay locked in that room with him, I couldn’t. As a maid of honor, I had to see if everything was going smoothly for the reception.

Tonight. I could wait till tonight.

“Later, baby. We’re needed outside right now. Caleb and Tess must be looking for us.” The sexual tension that was floating around us from the last few months threatened to burst right now. Now that there was no barrier between us, we both wanted each other like two broken poles of magnet needed the other to be completed.

Pulling away, his eyes held mine. They held dark promises.

“Later?” A mischievous smile tugged at his lips. “I will keep that in mind.”

With my cheeks burning, I looked down.

Grabbing my chin, he tucked a strand behind my ear. “Let’s go outside and get done with everything as soon as possible. I can’t wait any longer.”

Neither can I. I wanted to say, but remained silent. It wasn’t a wise idea to tease the beast now.

Nodding, I placed one lingering kiss on his lips before opening the door and stepping outside. He followed behind, pulling me into him again. But when his phone rang, he had to leave me.

When I was finally outside, Tess and Caleb were busy chatting with some guests and clicking photos. She didn’t seem to be bothered by her pimple anymore.

After making sure everything was good with the reception preparation, I stepped outside again to find Warner approaching me. Instinctively, I glanced around to see if my caveman was anywhere around. I didn’t want his horns to come out seeing Warner near me again.
