Fifteen minutes later we were escorted to a table in the resort’s breakfast nook, where a server greeted us immediately.
“Congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Silver!”
The words hit me like a slap to the face. I blinked, my head throbbing as I stared up at the resort employee in front of us. “What?” I stuttered.
She beamed at me. “Your ceremony was beautiful! The two of you are so in love. It was truly magical. I hope I can find a love like yours.”
My stomach flipped. I snapped my head to look at Griffin, who looked equally dazed.
“Oh shit,” he mumbled.
“We got married?” My voice was barely a whisper, my pulse roaring in my ears.
Griffin was staring at me like he was trying to remember. “I…I think we did.”
My heart pounded as flashes of the night came back to me. The crowd cheering. Griffin kissing me so deeply I forgot to breathe. Signing something.Oh god. Did we actually sign something?
The server watched us with curiosity before quickly mentioning brewing us a fresh pot of coffee.
“We need to fix this,” I blurted out, suddenly feeling like I couldn’t breathe.
Griffin snapped his gaze to mine. “Fix it?”
“Yes! We…we aren’t supposed to get married…yet!”
He frowned, rubbing his temples. “I mean…yeah, but it’s not like Ihatethe idea of you being my wife.”
I gaped at him because as much as I loved the idea of being his wife, we had only been dating for a month. “Griffin, have you lost your damn mind?”
He let out a low chuckle, shaking his head. “All right, all right. We’ll figure it out. But, uh…” He lifted my hand, running his thumb over my fingers in a soothing gesture. “Tate Silver sounds good, kitten. Really good.”
I narrowed my eyes at him, but the warmth in my chest betrayed me. Because as crazy as this was, as unexpected and wild andabsolutely ridiculousas it seemed, Griffin Silver, the boy who had been my best friend and arch enemy all in one, was now my husband, and he had never looked happier.
