Lindsey“Well, my investment sure did pay off. You are beautifully kept as always. I knew you would be my most valuable possession.” He says with a smile that looks more like a sinister sneer.I am doing everything in my power to control my breathing. He is making a spectacle as always and drawing attention to us, which I am sure was his whole intention. Reece grips my waist tighter, reminding me that I am not alone. He doesn’t say anything though, allowing me to dictate how this interaction with my brother will go. I decided to try the tactful approach and then go from there.“Fabian, it’s nice to see you. Are you here with anyone tonight?” I try to open polite conversation and ignore all of his previous comments.“As a matter of fact I did arrive with a beauty on my arm.” He looks around as though he just realized she wasn’t by his side. I had to fight the urge to roll my eyes at him. “She had to make the rounds to a few business colleagues, but she should be….there.” He p

36LindseyThe rest of the night Dominique and my brother avoided us, but the situation we had was definitely the biggest rumor going around, based on the way that people would avoid eye contact or quickly change topics when Reece and I would walk by. Reece kept his promise after that and didn’t leave my side. We danced and he introduced me to many people throughout the party. I was going to need an index of all the names. That was something I would put Angie on. She would love to dig up info on everyone. I laugh to myself.“What’s so funny?” Reece asked as we were walking toward a balcony to step out and get fresh air.I didn’t realize I laughed out loud. “I was just thinking of my first assignment to Angie, outside of stalking the paparazzi. I am going to have to have her create an index of all of the people I met tonight.”“How is that funny?” He raises an eyebrow.“I am going to have to reign her in and have her get socially helpful information, instead of incriminating inf

LindseyWe walk over to our friends, Max and Nancy.“It’s nice to finally meet you, Lindsey. I’ve heard a lot about you” Max says with a little half smile and glance at Reece.I scrunch my eyebrows and look at Reece. What in the world does that mean? Reece avoids eye contact and walks to my side wrapping an arm around my waist.“What do we need to sign first?” Reece asks Max, diverting the attention from Max’s comment. I’ll have to ask him about it later.“So, we have the usual paperwork for your marriage certificate and the prenuptial agreement. I also have everything you will need for your new ID’s. It’s just faster if we do everything at the same time. Mr. Raines has had me adjust the agreement to allow you access your allowed inheritance and your portion of the Raines corporation after five years of marriage instead of ten. We have also removed the contingency of producing a male heir.” He rolled his eyes like he thought that the clause was ridiculous in the first place. “ Should y

***Mature Content***ReeceI have died and gone to heaven. This incredible woman is my wife. She is timidly walking out of the bathroom in a black lace bra that highlights her perfect boobs and matching lace panties that barely cover anything. If she thought she was doing herself favors by putting on my white button down shirt, she has another thing coming.It’s taking all the effort I have left to keep myself planted right here on the bed. The way she looks right now is better than any wet dream I have ever had.“Come here.” I beckon her over with a flick of my finger. She slowly moves towards me, biting on her lower lip like she is unsure. I have to remember this is all new for her, but she is unconsciously doing everything that drives me crazy.She walks up and stands in between my legs. My hands automatically find her hips and slide to her perfect ass as I pull her flush to me. Her hands slide to my shoulders then to the back of my neck.“Do you have any idea how beautiful you are?

LindseyI never understood what the pull was to have s*x until last night. Reece made me feel amazing. While I am glad I waited for him because of the way he took care of me, I now understand people wanting to try out different partners before settling on ‘the one.’I lay there, very early morning light creeping in the window, in the warmth that I associate with Reece, not opening my eyes, wanting to savor the aftermath of our night together. But, I also knew whirlwind Brandon was probably already up and making preparations for our wedding today.As if I conjured him, by thinking about him. An over enthusiastic knock at the door and his cheery morning voice let me know he was coming in whether we liked it or not. Before I could truly register what that meant, the door came flying open and Brandon sauntered in wearing a cranberry colored suit with matching shoes and black tie. He took one look at me pressed up to Reese and smiled. I looked around myself and realized the sheet had slippe

LindseyWe step out of the car and Angie helps me adjust my dress and make sure everything is picture perfect. She looks amazing in her off the shoulder cranberry colored dress. I think everything fits her perfectly without trying. The sheer material falling off her shoulders highlights her ivory skin and her raven hair is pulled into a loose messy bun behind her right ear. Her make-up is simple, similar to mine.She gives me a tight hug and then we both start following Brandon around the side of the building down a cobbled pathway and through two more vine covered archways to a garden with high vine and flower covered walls making the space feel intimate and private.At the opposite end of the garden I see Reece’s massive form filling out a tux jacket to almost breaking point. His head is down and his hands are in his pockets. He looks lost in thought.I don’t even hesitate or wait to be told to move. Everything in me wants to be near him, like that is where I belong and this is far t

Reece“ARE YOU F**KING KIDDING ME REECE?! What were you thinking, marrying that child without my consent?” My grandfather is raging after the girls left. “Do you realize what you have done to this family? You have ruined us all now, all of our plans have been f**ked in a matter of stupid hormonal moments from you. You have never been this impulsive before, you have to leave now, while she is being distracted. We will get this annulled and you can complete your union with Dominique like you were supposed to. I will make your excuses to the family. Just go now.” He sits down and rubs his hands over his face as if I am the one being unreasonable. I just let him yell and get it out, my rage growing as he insults Lindsey. I finally break when he just assumes I am going to leave her, just because he said so.“You had better start explaining yourself old man. You have exactly five minutes to tell me what your real issue is.” I growl out and cross my arms over my chest, Max matching my moveme

LindseyI can tell whatever was said after Angie and I left Reece and the guys really affected him. He hasn’t put me down since he carried me down the aisle. He said he would tell me later and we haven’t had a moment without other people around the whole day, but something feels off, like he’s keeping me close out of fear.I have to take a deep breath and trust him. He hasn’t lied to me yet, I just hope he won’t keep whatever this is from me thinking he is protecting me. He settles in a chair sitting me sideways across his lap wrapping both arms around me. I snuggle into his chest, and rest my head on his shoulder, letting his body heat calm me down. Brandon brings us both water and I am so thankful. I don’t know if I could start drinking anything right now.“Well, my lovelies, and Bossman, after that very interesting ceremony are you ready for the rest of the wolves?” Brandon laughs and I try to smile, but I can’t even force it. I don’t know if I can handle any more bulls**t today fro
