Author’s POVRegret flooded Lucas upon realizing that he had shouted a little bit more than he should at them.His yell has echoed through the hall and if their laughter hadn’t gotten people up from their sleep then his yell had.Raegan and Gunner stared at him in surprise as they tried to understand why he had yelled at them in the manner in which he had.His outburst and obvious recklessness made he, himself to be equally surprised, but instead of apologizing, he asked, “Why the fuck are you standing there and staring at me like a thief caught on headlights?”“Do you fucking know that this period isn’t one where you linger around at night?” He decided to play that card upon realizing that nothing he would have said would have made him right.“We had played it safe and weren’t running around attracting unwanted attention but rather we had just watched the sun…”“Shut your fucking mouth filled with excuses and go to your rooms, he commanded to which they both listened to, without argui
Raegan's POVI woke up in confusion and my head pounding hard against my skull. My eyes got familiar with my surroundings dings and I scowled at the unfamiliar room…before it all cleared up.The only thing I could remember was watching the sunset with Gunner before we headed to the bar to drink away or last moments as singles.We both have come to the agreement that since Lucas wanted a marriage on paper we were going to give him that.Lazily I lay in bed and just then the unclear memory of Lucas yelling and then following me to my room flashed causing me to scowl.Was he here or was my subconsciously messing with me?I sank the tea that was at my bedside before washing up but for some reason, I just didn't feel the need to see anyone.Everyone was busy in their way…tomorrow was when the reality was going to dawn on me.My mind flew back to the man that has offered me a way out…brushing the back of my phone where the memory card was…I thought of doing it.It was funny how it slipped o
Author's POV It was finally the day…the day when reality had dawned on him. It was the Pre-wedding day. Just like reality has dawned on Raegan, Gunner woke up on the wrong side of the bed. He had earlier wanted to confess to his father the previous night after Rae had left but he just couldn't afford to ruin the mood not when his father seemed so genuinely happy. This wedding couldn't hold, he could see the pain in Raegan's eyes whenever they talked about the wedding. Her pain was haunting him, all night he had wondered what she thought of him for subjecting her to this kind of life. As soon as he woke up and without thinking twice in order not to let fear make him back out, he headed straight to Lucas's room to tell him that he was gay. All these while Raegan has been the one making the decisions on how to stall the wedding but he hasn't made any. It wasn't reluctance but he just didn't know how and was so scared to tell his father that he was Gay… It wasn't worth it then bu
Author’s POVMaya's eyes suddenly widened as she realized one thing Lucas lived more than himself was his reputation and there was no way he was going to react rashly outside under the scrutiny eyes of everyone.“Lucas Dear…” she began and Lucas' rage grew, if possible.Regardless she took steps backwards before dying while flagging down an invite that looked so similar to the one on the others hand. “I was invited Lucas and it’s funny how poor your memory is becoming faint” Gm“You seem very careless to dare show your smelly ass here and then threaten me to keep you still”His attention was called so he nodded at Gunner to hold her still while he welcomed in a guest, they stood discussing for a while before the man alongside his boys walked in.“You don’t near this disgrace and embarrassment you are asking for!” Lucas threatened as he returned with a scowl on his face.Maya didn’t know where her courage was coming from perhaps taking wine early was a bad idea but she loved the contro
Raegan’s POV THIS WAS REALLY HAPPENING?! When I was being dolled up, I badly wanted to be slapped and pulled back into a reality where I was getting married to a gay man. I wondered why he couldn't just tell his dad that he wasn’t into women and save us this stress. I wasn’t homophonic and I'm pretty sure anyone in my place would feel the same way but it wasn't in my place to spill Gunner's sex. If only we weren't that close then I would have spilled his secret a long time ago to save myself from this wedding. My mind began judging me for not using the opportunity but the memories I had created with Gunner shut them up. I loved Gunner as nothing more than a best friend but the thoughts of being tied to a man that could never satisfy guy my sexual desire and it wasn't like I could cheat. It was no big news that they weren't big fans of cheaters due to Lucas's bad history with such women. Upon entering the hall, his stare immediately lit me on fire, and knowing that he felt s
Raegan’s POV I knew there was no way she was going to leave me alone. Being the pest that Maya was, she didn't leave like I had predicted but instead, she proceeded to sit down beside me causing me to groan loudly. What was more painful was the fact that no one could sense my discomfort rather anyone whom my annoyed smile met, flashed me theirs. In the blink of an eye, so many crazy thoughts flashed through my mind and funny how they were all thoughts of how I could embarrass her to get her away from my sight. It was already displeasing enough that I was here but having to answer to this bitch was just out of the question. I thought of pouring her the glass of wine that was in my front because I knew that everyone here would take my side as it would be seen as self-defense but I shook my head as it was just too much stress. Ignoring her didn't work like planned unlike what I expected, she didn't get the hint and left rather she thought it wise to taunt me. Maya's presen
Lucas had been waiting for a chance to spend some time with Rae ever since he saw her looking so beautiful in that dress. “Do you want to dance, Rae?” Lucas asked gently. “No,” Rae said, not entirely convinced. Lucas didn't accept this and questioned her again. “Are you sure about that?” Lucas asked again. “Just one dance.” Rae eventually agreed and both started dancing, which gave rise to the sexual tension they’d been trying so hard to fight for a long time. They were dancing in each other's arms, their mouths moist and their gaze locked. Rae was doing the same thing with Lucas as her eyes bore into his, his lips were inviting, and she desperately wanted to explore his body, which she had only been able to do in her imagination. Lucas's eyes moved from Rae's eyes down to her lips, where he could see himself kissing her profusely and eating up her lips with his hands around her luscious body. “You look so beautiful, Rae.” Rae tried to pretend that his words meant noth
Rae was extremely uncomfortable that Gunner had found her in that inappropriate situation with her father-in-law, who was also his father. She was trying to think of the ideal response to give Gunner should he question her, but nothing was coming to her because her thoughts were primarily focused on Lucas; he was simply there, and oddly, she wanted it to stay that way. She took advantage of the fact that Gunner remained silent about what he had seen, believing that it would be futile for her to bring it up. Instead, she dutifully followed him wherever he led her. It was nice that he put her into the middle of some boys who were around her age and introduced them to her. However, the conversation turned dull when they started discussing business and the difficulties they faced as entrepreneurs. Rae politely excused herself to use the loo, but Gunner was hesitant to let her go. Rae sighed, realizing that he was acting clingy towards her after what happened. In an attempt to
