Chapter 26 (this isn't beta'ed yet and may change)
Nate’s POV
I held Meena in my arms as we swayed to the music at our reception. The day had been perfect so far. The weather had cooperated. There hadn’t been a breakout of fighting—though I’d have to be blind and stupid not to notice how Ryan had been staring at Gabe all day…like he wanted to rip out Gabe’s throat or something. But he’d been behaving so far. And then there was Meena.
She was so beautiful, she literally took my breath away every time I looked at her. And she was all mine now, by law and in every other way. The wolf inside me groaned its contentment.
We were going to be leaving for our honeymoon soon, and I was nervous and excited over that. Excited because for a whole week, it was going to be just Meena and me. No pack duties to worry about. No family drama. Just me and my imprint, basking in each other’s presence.
And nervous, because as much as Meena and I had messed around since we’d started dating, we’d never actually done the deed. Hell, we hadn’t even seen each other fully naked yet.
The guys had given me all kinds of advice at my bachelor party the night before…
“Take it nice and slow…and don’t forget the syrup…” was Emmett’s advice.
“One word…blindfold…” Seth had said—not very reassuring.
Quil’s input was the following, “Hey, the first time Claire and I had sex, it wasn’t great. I hadn’t had sex in over fourteen years at that point and I friggin’ lost control. But the next time we did it, it was fucking phenomenal—”
At which point I cut him off with, “Ew, please don’t talk about my cousin and sex in the same sentence ever again.”
