“Ryan! What the hell are you doing?” Emily screamed, taking a step back.Ryan jumped off the bed, sweat glistening off his skin as he stared at her. The lady in bed with him covered her face.“What are you doing here? I told you to inform me whenever you are coming over to my place,” Ryan said, breathing hard.“Is that what you are concerned about, and who is the whore you are with?” She walked up to the bed and ripped the blanket off, and her eyes widened in shock. “Kayla…”Ryan ran his hand through his hair. The fact he was avoiding her gaze made it harder to deny what she was witnessing.“I wanted to tell you, Emily,” he said“How long has this been going on?” Emily asked.“We have been dating close to a year.” Ryan said.“Is a joke right?” She let out a humorless laugh.

Emily bites her lips. She could feel her heart pounding against her ribcage. She stared at the big rock on her finger, still in disbelief that she married this man seated beside her in the car, a week ago. The car stopped at the venue. “It’s time to let the world know you are married to me,” Logan said, stepping out of the car. He offered his hand to her.
