Kael.
My heart raced in my chest like the motherfucking traitor it has been for a while now as my brothers and I walked up the aisle in our expensive dark tuxedos amidst the crowd of family members, business associates and friends that had come to celebrate this moment with us.
As we went, my eyes scanned the crowd for any signs of Leilani, but she was nowhere to be found even though Alpha Frostclaw was here. I sighed, looking away as it felt as though a large boulder now settled at the base of my stomach.
And hades, I didn't know why her absensce affected me so much. I didn't know why I wanted her to be here so badly.
Maybe I had half expected her to come today and ruin the wedding, forcing my brothers and I to elope with her.
My chest felt tight when we arrived at the alter and in that instant, it felt as though my knees had suddenly gone weak… like my legs could no longer hold the weight of my body anymore.
