MasukQuin's POVI had received a message while Tyler was looking around and admiring everything like a lost sheep.I smiled despite myself. The idiot was adorable. The past twenty-four hours had felt unreal. For the first time in months, maybe years, I felt genuinely happy. I really wished Billie was around to see me finally happy.Which was exactly why the message immediately put me on edge.~ Come Behind the food stalls.I looked at it and ignored it, but shortly after when I went to get a drink another message appeared.~ If you don't come you might put him in danger.My smile disappeared. I glanced toward Tyler. He was still standing where I had left him.I typed quickly. ' Who is this?'The reply came instantly. ~Come alone.I almost laughed. It was definitely a trap which unfortunately for them, I wasn’t stupid to fall for it. I started typing again. Then another image appeared. My entire body went still.A photograph. Taken recently. Tyler. Standing outside our house yesterday. Comp
Tyler's POVNo. No. No.This isn't happening.My hand tightened around my phone as I stared at the screen. Not reachable. Again. I pressed call. The same result. My pulse pounded harder in my ears.Around me, people laughed and talked as if the world hadn’t just tilted beneath my feet. Music drifted through the market. Someone nearby was arguing over the price of handmade bracelets. Everything looked normal. But Quin was gone. And nothing about that was normal.I swallowed hard. Maybe his phone died. Maybe he found someone he knew. Maybe... Enough with the maybes Tyler, I scolded myself.Quin wouldn’t disappear without telling me. Not tonight. Not after everything.A cold knot settled in my stomach. I tried calling again. Nothing. The knot tightened. I could feel panic trying to claw its way into my chest. Not again. Please not again. I forced myself to inhale. Then exhale. Think. Panic wouldn’t help Quin. Panic wouldn’t help me."Come on, think Tyler."My thumb immediately found Jake
Tyler's POVI was awake but my eyes were not cooperative. They stayed closed until the smell of Something sweet drifted into the bedroom.I blinked slowly, opening my eyes. Quin was not in bed and the door was open. I stared at the ceiling for a moment, praying for the strength to move cause my body ached all over. Last night had been a dream come through. Excitement coursed through my body as realisation of The fact that Quin was officially my fiancé hit me again. This time it wasn't fake or a mistake.A stupid grin spread across my face before I could stop it. God. I was engaged. And this time it felt completely real. Quin McKenzie is mine.I rolled onto my side slowly and reached toward the space where Quin should have been and breathed his scent in. The sweet smell drifting into the room caught my attention again. Pancakes? My curiosity immediately won. I climbed out of bed, grabbed one of Quin’s shirts from the floor, and pulled it on before making my way downstairs.The moment I

Tyler's POVI just experienced the happiest moment of my life.For years I had been the one nobody really saw, the one who never quite fit anywhere, but tonight the universe finally seemed to be shifting in my favour. I had a family that wanted me just as much as I wanted them. I had Quin. And Quin had said yes.His reaction had been worth every single hour of planning, every nervous second, every secret I had kept from him. The look on his face when he saw the ring, the way he laughed and then cried, the way he kissed me in front of everyone—it was better than anything I had imagined. It was the best.After carrying me into our bedroom, he placed me gently on the bed. The door closed behind us with a soft click. The party noise faded into the distance. Quin leaned down and captured my lips with his.The kiss started slow and deep. His mouth was warm and familiar. He tasted like the champagne we had been drinking. I melted into it, hands sliding up his chest, feeling the solid strengt
Quin's POVEverything felt surreal.Everyone else vanished and all I could see was Tyler kneeling in front of me with tears in his eyes and a ring in his hand. A fucking ring for me.My brain had completely stopped working. I stared at him. Then at the ring. This definitely felt like something from a sweet dream. Tyler looked terrified as if there was even the slightest chance I would say no.The idiot. The beautiful, reckless, impossible idiot.A laugh escaped me. “Quin?” he asked carefully.I covered my face with one hand. “Oh my God.”Cassie immediately burst into louder tears. “I CAN’T TAKE THIS ANYMORE.”Jake shoved a napkin into her hands. “Pull yourself together.”“I’M TRYING.”“You are absolutely not trying.”My mother was crying too. Even my father looked suspiciously emotional.Damn it!This was officially the happiest day of my life.I looked back at Tyler. He was still kneeling, waiting for my reply with those ridiculously pretty eyes and hair that had completely ruined my
Tyler's POV "Heir to the Makell Empire Allegedly got married to a man in Vegas" Below the headline was a picture of me wearing a mask and Quin standing opposite me putting a ring on my damn finger. Wait, why was I even panicking? It's not like anyone would recognise me. The picture was kinda bl
Tyler's POV It couldn't be. How was Quinn seated behind the huge desk of the office of the CEO.Was I missing something ?" Good morning sir" my voice came out clearly hiding any form of suspicion. Thank goodness I was wearing glasses and I dyed my hair black last night . Although I did it because
Tyler's POV I prefer dream Quin to real Quin. Real Quin hated me and was most definitely straight. He kept fucking and hitting my prostrate, earning more screams from me. At some point he pulled the pillow from under me , flipped me over and held my ass to the air. I was soo close to the edge. I
Tyler's POV Quin and I didn't really play any drinking games. It was probably just his way of making me drink with him. I couldn't remember how we got to his room. Fuck. I drank too much. My eyes felt heavy, I could barely stand. I saw a figure moving towards me through my blurry vision. I rubb
