I held my stomach which hurt from all the laughter spilling out of me. “Okay, bouquet toss it is.”
Alley took control and lined up all the single women, Embry and any of the little girls too who wanted to participate. It was just flowers, right? I glanced at Capri, Gemma, and a few ladies from work, then I turned my back to them.
On the count of three, I tossed the arrangement over my shoulder high and far. There was a gasp and a few cheers. When I turned around there Gemma stood looking down at the bouquet tucked neatly in her grasp.
She glanced to her side and looked over at the men, but quickly diverted her gaze. What was that about? When I noticed a few sparkly tears in her eyes, I knew we needed to do something soon.
Alley, always the observant one, quickly called out that it was time for the garter toss. The mood changed fast as Lyric sat me in a chair, then ran his palm up my leg slowly and seductively. Tingles raced up my spine and my heart fluttered with love, along with desire. It burned inside me like the hot sun shining down on us.
“I love you and if you love me as much as you say you do, you'll find a way to sneak me into the house as soon as possible.”
Lyric’s hand stilled on my thigh and his eyes heated.
“Your wish is my command.”
I loved it when he said that to me.
Lyric grabbed the garter, threw it over his shoulder, and then plunking me off the chair, he tossed me over his shoulder.
Cat calls and roars of laughter followed us as he marched toward our home.
The whole day had been great, but it was about to get even better.
ChapterThirty-Seven
LYRIC
I sankinto my wife with no barrier between us and pleasure like I’d never known took over my body.
Sex with Ruby had always been phenomenal but something about making love to her now that we were married added a whole new layer to the mind-blowing feeling that was racing through my body as her channel gripped my cock.
I’d say we had snuck into the house, but that wouldn’t be true. Every one of our guests watched me throw my bride over my shoulder and I knew they all knew exactly where we were going. As we marched away, I heard Summer tell Ruby that she had Autumn covered.
Thank goodness for wonderful friends because I had to get my wife alone.
It was our chance since we were not going on a honeymoon right then. We talked about it but decided to wait and we were both okay with that. Jett had gotten his orders to leave in September and we wanted to spend as much time as we could with him. Plus, Autumn was just settling in better again since Ruby had been kidnapped and we didn’t want to upset her progress.
“God, you feel so good.”
Ruby’s warm brown eyes peered into mine. They reminded me of rich hot cocoa and could heat me up with just one look.
She moaned in response and I covered her mouth with mine needing to taste her. It was sweeter than chocolate.
When we got to our room, things had gone from zero to sixty in a few seconds flat. We both kicked off our shoes and came together. Ruby had stroked my erection through the fabric of my dress pants, a barrier I needed to remove quickly. I unzipped them and pushed them down my thighs, which shook with the need to get my wife naked.
I finished getting undressed and then went to work on her clothes after taking a second to take her in one last time in a dress far more stunning than the one she’d worn during her photo shoot. My woman would look good in a potato sack, but in her dress, as she walked toward me down the aisle, all the air had left my lungs.
Once she was naked, our hands roamed over each other’s bodies urgently trying to touch each other everywhere.
She arched up into my thrust and I pistoned into her over and over. When she detonated with her release it triggered my own and my vision blurred as she squeezed every last drop of come from me as the orgasm took over my entire body.
We were both breathless as we came down from our high.
“That was—”
I finished for her. “Extraordinary.”
Ruby ran her hands up and down my bare back. A shudder ran through me and I swear my cock was growing already. Her touch had that effect on me. It could send desire straight to my groin and it could also fill my heart withlove.
