Rowan.
Fuck, I am a nervous wreck. My heart was beating erratically, and I could barely contain the shaking in
my hands. The last time we did this, we were both young, and neither of us wanted it.
She’d been trying to escape from me with my baby, and I’d been angry at the whole universe for the
fact that I had to marry a girl I hated. Parts of me still wonder what would have happened if Ava had
managed to run away. Of course I would have been fucking angry that she ran away and denied me
the chance at knowing my baby, but would we still have found our way back to each other?
I didn’t see it before, but I truly, fucking believe that Ava is my soulmate. It took a while to see that, to
realize that, but better late
than never.
“Will you fucking come down?” Gabe growls beside me.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTaking a deep breath, I try to calm myself down, but nothing happens.
I guess I won’t be able to calm down until I see her walking down the
aisle.
“I can’t”
“Well, you better; you’re making me nervous, and I’m not the one getting married.”
We were standing at the front, waiting for Ava to arrive. Neither she nor her bridesmaid had arrived yet.
Despite me wanting the most lavish wedding money could buy, Ava didn’t. I wanted the whole damn
world to know that she was mine.
That she’d chosen me. That she’d given me a second chance.
Nobody was ever going to be able to take her away from me.

Ava, wanted something simple and intimate. That is one thing that still surprises me about her. She is
one of the richest women in the city, yet she’s so simple and down to earth. She didn’t want any
paparazzi at our wedding, or strangers. Just friends and family.
“I saw mom’s wedding dress, it’s beautiful, and she looked beautiful in it.” Noah says it on my other
side. “Wait and see, you won’t be able to take your eyes off her.”
You fucking guessed it. My groom’s men were Gabe and Noah. I would have chosen Travis, my oldest
friend, but our friendship has been the same since everything went down between me and Emma. Ava
has also yet to forgive him, so there is that.
“I can’t wait to see her.” I smiled at my son, who was bouncing in
excitement.
He was our biggest champion, always trying his best to push us together when Ava and I divorced. He
never gave up on us. I guess he saw something between us that we didn’t until it was almost too late.
I turn and stare into the crowd. My parents were seated at the front. The talk between my mom and
Ava had somehow brought them a bit closer. They’ll never be best friends, but there’s no longer bad

Nora and Theo weren’t here, but that’s understandable. They’re with Ava and her bride’s maid. Travis,
Kate, and Emma were also present. Only a few of the kids Ava has helped were present here. The rest
would join us at the reception. Her assistant and a few of our colleagues were also present. Also
present are Calvin and Gunner.
“What if she doesn’t come?” I whisper to my brother as a different kind of panic takes over.
“You’re kidding me, right?” He gives me a look that suggests he finds

me to be the dumbest human being in existence. I ignore that.
“Maybe she decided I’m not good enough for her, which, by the way, I’m not. I wouldn’t blame her if she
decides she’s better off without me in her life.”
Gabe discretely shakes me. “Get a fucking hold of yourself!”
