“Sir, I must ask you to take your seat.” Glancing to my left, I see a man standing there with a walkie-talkie in his hand. The bridesmaids begin walking as music starts to echo through the venue.

I hear the music immediately and pause.

Heels click on the stone floor, coming up behind me, and there she is…

Lilly.

Beautiful as always, wearing a white sleeveless dress with a lace skirt and a massive train. She spots me, pauses, and locks her emerald eyes on me. “Kyson.”

I remember how she used to whisper my name from those plump, luscious lips.

“You aren’t supposed to be standing there.” As she says it, the man who ushered me in walks up and reaches for the door; it must have closed after the bridesmaids.

“You look beautiful,” I tell her, because she does. Stunning. She is getting things from this man I would have never given her. It’s why I ended things. Lilly deserves so much more.

“Sir, you need to move out of sight.”

I step back as the doors are opened. Lilly’s father is on the other side, and his eyes narrow at me, surely not expecting me to be here, before I smirk at him. Then they land on his daughter. Amicable or not, no father is going to be happy seeing the guy who broke his daughter’s heart. And I did break her heart. Lilly loved me more than I could ever have loved her. It’s just how some things go. He offers his arm, and she takes it with one brief glance back at me.

Could I have changed for Lilly? Possibly.

She wanted me out of the life I am in.

Back then, I wasn’t willing.

But lately, I’ve been thinking differently.

I’m not sure this is the life I want forever.

In fact, I’ve already told Zuko I want out.

I’ve earned enough money to never have to work again.

Contract murder pays well.

Extremely well.

I stand there for what feels like an eternity until the music stops. After stepping in through the open doors, I find the closest seat at the back and slide into it. I look up, and Lilly’s smiling at her soon-to-be husband, and my leg starts bouncing.

Do I want this?

The white wedding.

A bunch of hypocrites smiling with false congratulations when they’re either envious or there for God knows why, like me.

I want what Zuko and Alaska have, but let’s be real, what are the chances of falling in love with a woman who’s going to be content to be in a relationship with a contract killer, let alone marrying him?

Movement next to me has me turning to see the little bird, who obviously likes to drink, throwing back another swig from her flask.

Who is this woman?

“Care to share?” I ask her, nodding to her flask.

She pulls it away from her mouth and wipes her pink lips.

Fuck! They are some good cock-sucking lips, that’s for sure.

“Fuck off.” Her voice is sweet. So sweet I almost miss the words that actually came with it. She faces forward and slides the flask back down her dress top and looks at the happy couple exchanging vows.

“Dale, I take you, and only you, to be my husband. If I ever get feisty…”

That’s all I hear.

I’m standing before I can stop myself, my hands fisted at my sides.

A few people turn back to see what the commotion is about, and Lilly looks back over her shoulder.

She fucking knows.

Of course, she fucking knows.

Dale, on the other hand, looks around with confusion etched in his forehead. He has no idea what she just did.

She smirks before she spins back to Dale and continues her vows.

What a cunt.

“Yo, sit the fuck down so people stop staring this way.” The little bird next to me pulls at my jacket, and I go willingly back to the seat.

“Give me some of your drink, or I’ll reach between your tits and grab it myself.”

“That’s assault, dick.” She reaches in, screws off the top, and I go to take it, but she puts it to her lips and chugs the last drop. When she pulls the flask away from her lips, she turns to me. “All gone. Now fuck off and find your own.”

Goddammit! I look back to Lilly.

Her vows are finished, and Dale is now saying his.

How could she?

Who the fuck does she think she is using that word in her vows? Especially knowing there was a chance I would attend the ceremony.

“You’re grunting. Stop it. People are looking.”

Fuck, this bitch is annoying. I turn and notice her white dress is way big. I mean, I saw the length when she walked up the stairs, and it was dragging behind her, but damn, it swims on her.

“You couldn’t find something that fits?” I grumble at her.

“You can’t shut your fucking mouth long enough to have a sensible thought, can you?” she grumbles back.
