“Don’t put me out there like that, baby. I’m not like that with everybody, and I don’t want nobody to get the wrong idea and get their feelings hurt.”

Everyone in the room laughed, and I took a deep breath before continuing.

“I should’ve gone first because I had so much I wanted to say, but I think myhusbandsaid it all. So, I just want to thank everyone who was involved in making this day the absolute best day of my life so far. I love y’all real bad for doing all this for me. I’m just a girl from the Southside of Chicago who loves to do hair. Today, I felt like a princess walking into her queendom, and for that, I thank all of you.”

Another round of applause filled the room, and we settled into our seats again to enjoy the soul food on the menu. As we ate, I looked around at all the guests. Although there were probably only thirty people in attendance, a few of them were heavy hitters.

Of course, the whole crew was here, including Yvonne’s boyfriend, Kayce. However, Mayor Harris and his very pregnant wife, Desire, were in attendance. Our two favorite clients, Jahzara and Yazmeen, were present, along with their husbands, Dakari and Bronx, who played for the world champion Onyx City Blazers.

There were a few unfamiliar faces who only socialized with Mayor Harris, Dakari, and Bronx, and I wondered if they were celebrities as well. I leaned toward Breeze to get his attention.

“You good, baby?”

“I’m fine. Who are those people talking to the mayor?”

He looked in the direction I’d indicated. “That’s Rocky, Russell, Semiyon, and Noel. I assume the women with Rocky and Russell are their wives or girlfriends.”

“Are they clients of yours?”

“Nah, we cool though. I’ll introduce you. C’mon.”

For what seemed like the hundredth time since we’d taken our seats, our guests gently tapped their silverware and glasses to make the clinking sound, encouraging us to kiss. Our lips connected for a moment before we stood. He took my hand and guided me towards the unfamiliar group. After speaking to Mayor Harris and the First Lady of OC, I thanked them for coming before they bid their farewells, and Breeze introduced me to everyone else.

“Baby, this is Rocky and Russell Rush. They own the Rush Brothers Youth & Recreation Center.”

I offered my hand, and the two gentlemen gently shook it and introduced me to the women with them. Rue and Rosemary were gorgeous, and I knew they were sisters before they mentioned it.

“Since this was a surprise, you aren’t aware, but the flowers and centerpieces are from our flower shop,” Rue offered.

“Really? My goodness. They are beautiful. What’s your shop called?”

“Bloom,” Rosemary responded.

“I’ll make sure I recommend it to my clients. Thank you.”

“Baby, this is Noel and Semiyon. They work for Rocky and Rush.”

I shook their hands as I thanked them all for coming.

“It’s nice to meet all of you, and thank you for coming to be a part of our special day.”

“Girl, this was nice as hell. I’ve never been to a surprise wedding, but I sure like the idea. Planning a wedding is aheadache, and you didn’t have to do any of it,” Rosemary pointed out.

“You know what . . .? I hadn’t thought of that. You made a good point. How long have you all been married?”

“Oh, I have no interest in marriage, and they’ve been married for a year,” she responded, pointing to Rocky and Rue.

Russell’s demeanor and body language shifted, and it was time for us to move on.

“Well, again, it was nice meeting you all. We’re about to get this party started.”

“Mmm,” I moaned as Breeze’s tongue slid over my pussy lips.

It was the morning after our wedding, and he woke me up with his face between my legs. I wasn’t sure how he managed to still find my pussy because it had been weeks since I’d last seen it without using a mirror.

“Good morning, wife,” he mumbled against my pussy lips.

Hearing him call me his wife had my smile as wide as the Pacific Ocean, and my pussy as wet. If he only referred to me as ‘wife’ from this day forward, I wouldn’t be mad at all.
