I held my hand out in front of me, letting my silver engagement ring sparkle in the light of the fire. Silver accents like sun rays set off a gorgeous round stone.
“It was my mother’s,” he said, his breath on my ear as we admired the way it shone. “I know she’d want you to have it.”
I lowered my hand and turned back to him. “What about Dyonne and Diana?”
He traced his hands down my arm and back to the ring. “They wanted you to have it too.”
“They knew?” I asked, surprised.
He kissed the soft spot at the back of my neck. “From the moment they met you.”
I nudged against him. “I can’t believe you proposed on the first date.”
His voice betrayed a smile. “You’re the one who said ‘yes.’”
I did. And I’d meant it. I’d never stop saying ‘yes’ to this man.
Neal plopped down next to me. “Lookie here,” he said, holding out a half-weaved wreath of poppies. “I can make you a wedding tiara.”
“Oh you know, as lovely as your place is,” I glanced out over the sagging hulk of his VW van, “I don’t think I’m going to get married here.”
Grandma slapped her thigh. “Of course not. This isn’t your home.”
“Home?” My stomach sank. Grandma had a point. Hillary would want the country club.
Grandma held up her drink. “We could hold it at Big Nose Kate’s. Get those beer can cozies with your names on it, nice and big.”
“No, no no,” Frieda butted in. “We need class.” She spread her arms like a visionary. “Think taffeta!”
This wedding was going to kill me.
“And little stuffed doves,” Frieda mused.
Maybe I should let them fight it out. Then I could have a hippie biker witch country club wedding, complete with griffin bridesmaids and a dragon pulling the wedding carriage.
Dimitri rubbed my arms. “Are you sure you know what you’re getting yourself into?” he asked, the smile evident in his voice.
I snuggled against him, savoring his warmth and protection. Knowing my luck a demon invasion would break out during the vows. “I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
