Rowdy(A Taboo Short)(14)

I nodded.

He grinned. “There isn’t a better man I’d want my little girl to be with.”

I snapped back to the present and exhaled. “I’m scared as fuck, man. I’m afraid I’ll screw everything up, that I’m not good enough for her—”

Eric chuckled, cutting me off. “Yeah, kind of goes with the territory, Rowdy. I was the same way with Cass’s mother.”

That made me feel better.

“You having second thoughts?” Eric asked, his brows low, seriousness covering his face.

“Fuck no,” I said instantly.

Eric laughed again. “Good. That’s real good, son.” He came up to me and clapped me on the back. “You ready to do this, because I know Cass is.”

Now it was my turn to grin. “I think I’ve been ready for this moment my entire life.”

We left the dressing room, and once I was standing on the podium, Cocky standing beside me, my Best Man, my best friend, I blew out a stream of breath slowly. Violet was on the other side of us, Cassandra’s Maid of Honor.

And then the music started, and there she was dressed in white lace.

The love of my life.

The one woman I would die for.

My soon to be wife.

Yeah, this was good, really fucking good.

And as I stared into her eyes as she came forward, I knew without a doubt this was exactly where I was supposed to be in my life. Cassandra was who I was supposed to be with.

The End
