tightly against his hard body. He was reaching for her breast when Nicholas and Sophia strolled into the room.
“Gross.” Nicky rolled his eyes as Maya and Dani joined them.
“I’m so excited!” Dani grinned at the others. “I can’t wait to try on dresses and look at decorations and – “
“Dani, remember that it’s Bree’s wedding.” Maya chided gently.
“I know, mama.” Dani replied. “But it doesn’t mean I can’t make suggestions.”
Avery laughed and led the others towards the door. “I’m sure Bree will be very happy for your help, Dani.”

“Kaden? Are you ready to go?” Bree climbed the ladder to the hayloft and peered into the room.
“Aye. Just packing my things.” He grinned at her and showed her the empty bag.
She laughed. “It’ll be nice to get your own clothes will it not? James’ clothes fit you fairly well, all things considered, but your pants are a little short.”
He looked down at his legs. “You don’t like the look of my ankles?”
Bree laughed again as she climbed down the ladder. “Hurry, Kaden. We’re leaving in ten minutes.”
He followed her down the ladder and stared at Bandit’s empty stall. “Where is Bandit?”
“I believe Ian has already saddled him for you and brought him into the yard.” Bree opened the barn door as Kaden joined her.
He stiffened when he saw Sophia swinging into the saddle of her own horse. “Why is she going with us?”
Bree smiled. “Because Kaden, she is my maid of honour. I need her with me.”
“I’m not going.” Kaden replied. He turned and headed towards the hayloft. Bree gave a grunt of frustration and ran after him. She grabbed his arm and swung him around. He blinked in surprise at the look of anger on her face.
“Stop being such a baby, Kaden!” She huffed at him.
“Bree, what – “
“You cannot avoid Sophia forever. I don’t know what happened between you two but if she’s willing to put it aside for the wedding, then my own brother should be able to do the same.”
He stared at her for a moment and then suddenly grinned before tugging lightly on her hair. “What has happened to my timid baby sister?”
She slapped at his hand. “Nothing’s happened to me. I am just tired of you being a pain in my ass.”
He laughed out loud and she shrieked with surprise when he suddenly lifted her and dumped her over his shoulder. “I never thought I would say this Bree, but living with these Lycans might actually be good for you. It’s nice to see you with a bit of spirit.”
She bit him sharply on the back and he flinched before setting her back on her feet. He rubbed at his back. “So the Lycans have taught you to bite?”
She stuck her tongue out at him. “Let’s go, the others are waiting.”
He followed her towards the door and she gave him a warning look. “I want you to play nice, Kaden.”
He stared at the light reflecting off Sophia’s dark hair. Playing nice with Sophia was something he dreamed about on a nightly basis. He snorted to himself and followed his sister.

“Bree, are you sure you don’t want to get married in a church instead of at the house? There’s a lovely one in the town we’re going to. We could decorate it so beautifully, and there’s a small building next to it that we could have a dinner in and dancing!” Dani smiled eagerly at her.
“No, I want to be married at home.” Bree said firmly.
“Can Lycans even go into a church? Don’t they just, I don’t know, burst into flame?” Kaden raised his eyebrows.
“It’s leeches who burst into flames if they go into a church.” Leta said solemnly.
“No they don’t, Leta. That’s just an old ancients’ tale. Leeches can go into a church as easily as Lycans and humans.” Sophia said. “And Kaden is only teasing – he knows that Lycans can go into churches.”
Leta gave him a
