Once the song finishes, Ryker returns to the dance floor and lifts me off my feet, spinning us in a circle. I laugh and toss my head back as the song he picked out begins to play.

When we were planning the wedding, I told them they could pick the songs for the first dances because I wasn’t sure what to do for them.Latch - Acousticby Sam Smith plays as Ryker takes my hands and begins to dance with me. My brows raise as shock races through me. “What? You think I learned to dance just for this?”

He smirks before leaning close to my ear. “I did, little flame. Let me lead you. Just listen.”

And I do. I let him lead me around the floor as we dance together, our eyes locked as I take in every word of the song. Tears spring in my eyes as I realize how truly lucky I am to have found them.

I won’t let go of you.

When the song comes to an end, Ryker stops by Grayson and dramatically hands me off to him. “Your turn, my love.” He winks at us and struts towards Cade.

We both chuckle, and Grayson takes my hand, leading me out as the last song begins to play.

I Get to Love Youby Ruelle.

We move slowly, swaying to the song as I look into his bright green eyes that have brought me nothing but peace and comfort over the years. Every panic attack, every nightmare, every time I have felt myself crumbling, these eyes always bring me back down.

Grayson leans in and rests his forehead against mine, his eyes falling shut. I let mine close as well and breathe him in as I listen to the lyrics to the song. How lucky I am.

I get to love you.

Our wedding was a day I’ll never forget. It was everything I could have hoped for and more. We danced, ate good food, and spent hours down on the beach together, celebrating the four of us.

My mom and dad may have been missing from the moment, but I felt them in my chest through the whole night. I can only imagine how happy they are for me and the guys.

Now that the wedding is over, we have to jump right back into work. Unfortunately, with the timing of things, we can’t go on our honeymoon, but we are planning a trip as soon as possible.

There’s a soft knock on my office door here at SOR club, but before I can say anything, the door opens and Bear comes barreling in, heading straight towards me, Grayson a few steps behind him.

“Hi, Bear.” I chuckle and scratch his head when he lays his head down on my lap. Once we officially took over the club, the first thing we did was build a fence around the entire property which is about ten-acres. Bear lives here most of the time, but if we are going to be gone for more than a day, he comes back to the beach house with us.

Glancing back up at Grayson, I grin at him as he takes a seat in one of the chairs across from my desk, “Hi, husband.”

“Hi, wife.” He chuckles. “We have church in about thirty minutes.”

“Okay.” I glance at my computer screen. “Are we going to go over these prospect applications?” I ask, gesturing towards my screen, where I had been scanning through them.

Grayson nods. “Yeah, Ryker thinks asking the few members who stayed with the club even with the changes will build some trust.”

I agree. Once we took over, Sugar and a few others stayed for a few months to get us settled and help us decide on roles.

Ryker is now the President of the club while I’m the VP. Grayson is our tech guru, and Cade is the sergeant at arms. Chains, who owns the tattoo shop where Cade works, decided to become a full member of our club and has since become our road captain. So now, we’re just looking for the right person for our enforcer.

A few minutes pass before Ryker pokes his head through the door. “Time for church, wife and husband.”

I grin; I don’t think those terms will ever get old. Standing, I grab my SOR cut and slip it on before heading out of my small office that doesn’t hold much yet and follow the guys down the long hall to where the large meeting room is to hold church.

We have the same set up as SOS with the long oval table and both SOS and SOR logos on the walls.

We all take our seats and the select few members we have come into the room and sit down as well.

“Let’s get started,” Ryker announces, smiling at everyone as he stands at the head of the table.

Our lives are just getting started, and I can’t wait to see where the future takes us as we navigate this new era we find ourselves in.

THE END.
