Three Weeks Later
I rubbed my eyes as I sat up in bed. When I realized the other side was cool, I frowned. Cade wasn’t there, and suddenly there was a lump in my throat as I wondered where he’d gone.
Three weeks after the incident, I was finally able to sleep without having a nightmare. After Cade and I had talked to Colton that day, we’d decided on having a short engagement. He told me that I could expect a wedding any day, but I wasn’t holding my breath. After all, the Prophets were pushing a tremendous amount of E right now, and I knew that I should probably wait until things had really settled down.
I’d moved out of my small, shitty apartment and into a house owned by the club. Cade had lived there with Boulder and Tyler but they moved out, into another house that was down the block. Cade and I had been on our own for weeks, and it already felt like newlywed bliss. I couldn’t imagine how it would feel to be actually married to the man I loved so much.
“Cade!” I called as I slipped out of bed and pulled a robe around my naked body. “Where are you?”
“Babe, I’m in the kitchen,” Cade called back loudly.
It smelled delicious in the hallway. I grinned to myself and padded down the carpet in my bare feet.
Cade was standing at the stove flipping pancakes. There was a plate full of bacon and sausages on the table and my mouth began to water at the delicious aroma. Stepping close, I grabbed a piece of bacon and popped it into my mouth behind Cade’s back.
“Hey!” Cade said. “No sneaking!” He winked at me, walking over and wrapping me in his arms. As we kissed passionately, I felt myself melt against his strong, muscular body.
“Sorry,” I murmured. “I couldn’t resist.”
“You ready for today?” Cade raised his eyebrows at me. “I bet you’re pretty damn excited.”
I frowned. “Wait, what’s today?”
Cade grinned. “Something that you’re really gonna love,” he said. He reached around and swatted me playfully the ass. “Go get dressed!”
I pouted. “It’s ten in the morning,” I whined. “What’s the rush?”
Cade tapped his wrist, where a watch would be if he wore one. “Just go put some clothes on,” he said. “And then I promise, you can pig out on breakfast.”
As I stepped back into the bedroom and opened the closet, I was stunned to see a gorgeous white dress hanging there. All of my other clothes had been pushed to the side and the beaded white dress was front and center. I gasped It was beautiful. I’d never seen anything like it before.
“You like it?”
I jumped. Cade was standing in the doorway right behind me. I grinned and nodded enthusiastically.
“It’s beautiful,” I said softly. “What’s the occasion?”
“Thought you might like something nice for your first patch day,” Cade said. He winked at me.
I clapped a hand to my forehead. “I can’t believe I forgot!” Today was the day that Colton and Rudy were finally going to patch me into the Bleeding Prophets. I was going to be an honorary member. I wouldn’t have my own bike, but I’d ride behind Cade, on his. And I’d be the official medic.
“And,” Cade said with a grin, “it’s our wedding day.”
I gaped at him. “Are you kidding me?”
Cade shook his head. “Nope,” he said. He winked at me and I felt my heart melt. “I called your gay buddy, Calvin, to ask about wedding dresses. He sent this one over. He couldn’t make it to the ceremony, but he sends his love.”
Tears welled up in my eyes and I felt my throat swell. “Oh my god,” I breathed, stepping closer and looking at the dress. It was truly beautiful, the most beautiful piece of clothing that I’d ever owned. “Cade, I can’t believe this! Are you serious?”
Cade nodded. “Serious as anything,” he said. “I thought today, we could knock out two big birds with one stone.”
I blushed. “I can’t believe it,” I said softly. It wasn’t that I hadn’t trusted Cade when he’d told me to expect a wedding any day, but it seemed so…well, unbelievable. “This is amazing.”
Cade stepped closer and wrapped me in his arms. His lips warmed the top of my head and I shivered as a bolt of lust crawled down my spine. When our lips met in a passionate kiss, I moaned softly into his mouth.
Cade pulled away and looked down at me with love shining in his blue eyes. “Are you happy, baby?”
“I’ve never been so happy in my life,” I replied quietly. “And I can’t believe that you’re going to be my husband.”
“About damn time,” Cade said huskily. We kissed again and I felt my crotch begin to thump with heated arousal.
“You should leave me alone so I can get dressed,” I said coyly. “You know, bad luck and all. Groom’s not supposed to see the bride.”
Cade snorted. “Like hell,” he said. “After what happened, I’m never leaving you again.”
I sighed and stood close, pressing my forehead against his chest. “I think I can live with that,” I said softly. “As long as you promise it’s forever.” Cade’s fingers lifted my chin until my blue eyes were staring into his own.
“Baby, I can do better than that,” Cade said lustily. He kissed me softly and I felt a jolt of electricity between our bodies. “I can swear it.”
The grin that stretched my face was almost painful as I looked into his eyes. “I love you,” I said softly. “And I never wanna be apart from you ever again.”
Cade grinned. He gripped me tightly and kissed me on the forehead. Love radiated through my body. “I love you, Mrs. Mitchell,” he said softly. “And I always, always will.”
