“There's more. It would be better if I showed you, but after today, I'm free. I called in a few favors, and all of Missi’s evidence, including the shit she sent to her friends in case something were to happen to her, is gone.”

He moves back to the TV and presses a button. “Are you really showing us your sex tape with Missi?” Rylee mutters, moving closer to the screen. She grabs her stomach and groans. “I might be sick.”

Trevor moves behind her and pulls her into his chest, whispering something into her ear that has her nervous.

“No, just watch. After today, everything is going to change, but I need your help.”

We watch the video and I grin. Rylee laughs, then jumps forward and kisses Lennox hard.

“Oh, this is going to be so much fun. Karma’s a bitch, Pissy Missi, and it’s time you guys met,” she says, then turns toward the door to leave.

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

There are so many different emotions running through my head right now. Shock, after watching that video. Repulsion, because of the fucked up lengths that bitch has gone to in order to destroy so many lives. Relief, like a weight has been lifted off my chest at the fact that Lennox didn’t cheat on me and Mateo. Fury, that we’ve missed out on so much time with the man we love, because of that evil bitch, and pure fucking glee over what’s about to happen next.

It’s nearly impossible for me to keep the shit-eating grin off my face as we walk out of the room and into the church lobby.

Missi wanted a day she would never forget, and we’re more than happy to give her exactly that.

The guys follow behind me, except for Lennox, who hangs back, waiting for his time to shine.

“I’m so happy. I’m practically vibrating with excitement.” Donny rubs his hands together like an excited kid on Christmas morning.

“Me too, but we need to get our asses in those seats.” Mateo guides Donny toward the door to the main part of the church, where the ceremony is being held. “We’re going to want front row seats for this.”

“Fuck yes, we are.” Donny cackles.

“Are you sure you’re going to be okay?” Colton asks, concern written on his handsome face.

“Oh, I’m going to be just fine, baby.” I grin widely, lifting up onto my tip-toes to press a kiss to his lips. “Go on. We have a wedding to watch.” I wink.

Colton grins, before following after the guys.

Now it’s time to do my job. Letting out a deep breath, I allow my face to fall into a neutral expression, and try to calm my racing heart.

As I walk toward the bridal suite, I don’t have to bother knocking on the door as it swings open and I practically crash into Missi. “Watch it!” she barks, realization dawning on her. Her lips curl into a sneer. “What the fuck are you still doing here? You and your merry men of freaks need to leave. Before I get angry and kick you out on your asses.”

“No need to worry your pretty little head.” I bat my eyelashes at her mockingly. “We found your man. He said he’s going to be right out. So you better get ready to walk down that aisle.”

Her face lights up. “Really?” She lets out a breath of relief. “Thank God. He better be happy that I love him so much.” She gives me a pained smile, and I can see now how fake it is. Shemight like the idea of having Lennox, but she never actually cared about him. She doesn’t care about anyone else but herself.

And after watching that video, it’s taking everything in me not to claw her face off. It’s that baby in her stomach that’s saving her crazy ass.

“Yeah.” I nod. “Anyways, I’ll let you get ready. Bye.”

Missi slams the door shut. I can hear her screaming at someone on the other side about needing her hair and make-up fixed.

Rolling my eyes, I leave to sit with the guys.

“Eveything good?” Mateo asks.

“Yup.” I grin up at him as I take a seat between him and Colton. “She’s getting ready. Any moment now.”

“I’m so excited, I might pee,” Donny says from Mateo’s other side, practically bouncing in his seat.

“Please don’t,” Mateo grumbles. “You're not a damn puppy. Although, you follow after Rylee like one.”

“She loves it.” Donny grins over at me. “Woof.”
