“That’s my job,” Hunter responded to Ash, on the topic of throwing Ben out of the wedding if he got out of hand. My brother took his work as the head of security for Raven Industries seriously. For a time, it seemed to be an obsession. Thank god he fucked his therapist, because she’d been the catalyst to rein in his demons. Not that I didn’t understand or blame him for his issues. I was so fucking proud of my big brother’s time in the military. War had taken a toll on him, and there was a time when we thought we were going to have to boot him out of the business. Fortunately, Grace came along, and what a difference love made in his life. Marriage looked really good on him. And it helped him be civil.

“Hello gentlemen,” Grace said as she approached us. She went straight to Hunter and straightened his collar. It had looked alright to me, so I suspected it was just an excuse to touch him. It worked, because he grinned and kissed her. People in love were fucking weird.

I’d nearly told them to get a room, but Grace ushered us to the entrance of the church to get started on the rehearsal for Ash and Beth’s wedding.

In the foyer, the long-legged wedding planner, who I’d considered hooking up with when I first met her, barked out orders telling tell us where to stand. The way her hand brushed over my chest suggested that she’d take me up on my offer, if I gave it. But it was my brother’s wedding, and while I liked to rile all my brothers up, even I understood how important and sacred the event would be. I didn’t want to fuck that up for Ash. So, she was hands off — for now.

The wedding planner put Chase with his wife, Sara, at the front of the line. I felt sorry for the poor woman, as she was so pregnant that she looked like she was about pop. I wasn’t sure how she could still stand. Chase absently rubbed her back as he asked her how she was doing. Seeing romance and sweetness from Ash wasn’t unexpected, but the first time I saw it in Chase towards Sara, I was sure that pigs were flying and hell had frozen over. He’d been the most like our father; driven, ruthless, and aloof. Today, he was as sappy as my other brothers.

Next in line, the wedding planner put Hunter and Grace. Hunter, as usual took the moment to squeeze her ass.

“Kade,” the wedding planner cooed at me, as she looped her arm in mine and moved me behind my brother Hunter. “Normally, the best man stands up with the groom, but Beth and Ash want you to escort the maid-of-honor.” The wedding planner waved a hand and a woman appeared.

There were two things in the world I liked most: food, and women. Often together. This woman made me do a double take as her stunning beauty hit me. She had hair as black as night, and eyes nearly as dark. Her amazing curves that told me she liked food, too. Her tits were plump and round, and my dirty mind immediately imagined fucking those wonderfully full globes. I shifted on my feet to try and keep my dick from joining in the fun my eyes were having. The last thing I needed now was a hard-on.

“Hi, I’m Morgan. Beth’s friend,” she said with a perky smile.

Her lips were full and red even without lipstick, and my brain jumped to the image that luscious mouth on my dick. I swallowed, because she’d said something and I was sure I was supposed to reply with something.

“Kade,” I managed.

She smirked. “Yes. I know.”

I frowned.

“Everyone knows the Ravens,” she said by way of explanation.

“And you, miss cutie patootie, will line up right here,” the wedding planner said to Hannah, my five-year-old niece who, until a few months ago, I didn’t know I had. “Beth, you and Ben will walk in after.”

Beth came to stand behind us, but Ben was MIA. We all looked at her, and she gave a sheepish smile. “I’m sure he’s caught in traffic or something.”

I was sure he was lost in the bottom of a bottle.

“Would you like me to stand in for him?” I asked. I hated to give up getting to know Beth’s voluptuous friend, but this was her wedding, and I wanted to make it go smoothly for her and Ash. Later, I’d think about kicking Ben’s ass.

“No,” Beth shook her head. “I’ve learned long ago that sometimes I need to do things on my own.”

“Not anymore,” Chase said. “You’ve got us now.”

Her smile was lovely, and it made me happy for Ash.

I turned back to my raven-haired beauty. She was smiling up at me like I was some sort of god. It made me uncomfortable, even as it filled my chest with a strange, powerful feeling.
