wedding chapel at The Castillo for tonight. You have a private appointment with the finest wedding shop in Las Vegas as well as spa and hair appointments.”

    *****
     
    Jason paced outside of the Castillo chapel. What a crazy week it had been. He’d been blackmailed by an insane ex-girlfriend, and accused of doing the same to government officials, been arrested, cleared, engaged and soon he would be married. What was next? For once, he wasn’t sure where his life would take him. Earlier that day, Sam recounted the full story of Stephanie’s confrontation with Jessica in his home in Seattle. He winced at the thought of Stephanie at his house alone with Jessica. He imagined it must’ve hurt her to see his ex live in girlfriend in his house. He vowed to never take her there. He already placed the property on the market. They were beginning a new life together and he would let her decide where they would live.
    He was also uncertain as to the fate of Royce Homes. The blackmail accusations damaged his reputation. He had his public relations team working night and day on repairing and building his brand back to the stellar name it once was. For once, Jason Royce didn’t know what his next move was. However, one thing he knew for certain, Stephanie would be at his side.
    Stephanie. He’d only spent a handful of days with her but felt a lifetime of love. He hated being apart from her even for the afternoon. He checked his watch and glanced down the hall leading to the chapel.
    His heart pounded in his chest when the door swung open. But his spirits sank as Sam appeared in a tuxedo.
    “Sorry I’m late, boss. I couldn’t tie this thing,” Sam said tugging at his bowtie.
    “Have you seen Stephanie?” Jason asked and looked at his watch once more.
    Sam shook his head. “Don’t worry, I’m sure she’s--”
    Both men turn toward the long hallway and watched Stephanie slowly walk toward them. Jason’s breath hitched as she walked through the light cast from the stained glass windows flanking either side of hallway. She reminded him of an angel and he couldn’t take his eyes off of her. His gaze started with her white crystal encrusted stilettos and moved upward to legs that seemed to go on forever. She wore a short white lace dress that hugged every beautiful curve. His eyes met hers as she flashed him a smile that made his insides melt.
    “You look beautiful, sweetheart.”
    She spun around. “Do you like the dress?”
    Stephanie’s hair was pinned up into a loose bun. As she turned, Jason admired the nape of her neck and curve of her exposed back. The dress was cut low enough for Jason to make another speculation.
    “I love the dress and I love you. Are you ready to become Mrs. Royce?” he asked as he extended his arm and handed her a bouquet of deep red roses with the stems tied in a thick satin ribbon.
    Stephanie hooked her hand in his arm. “I love you too and guess what?”
    “What, sweetheart?”
    “I’m not wearing any panties.”
    “Damn, I knew it!”
