CHAPTER TEN

I shovel another spoonful of cake into my mouth, mumbling to the guy in the polka-dot bowtie. “What did you say this one was?”

“Lemon myrtle sponge with almond glaze.”

“It’s delicious.”

Archer is shaking his head. “You said the same for the other six. Looks like I’ve found the way to your heart.”

I place the mini-fork down, a stack of teeny plates accumulating fast before me. I could do this cake-testing thing all day. Screw the wedding. Screw Archer. Cake is all I need. “I love sweet stuff. What can I say?”

“You can say which one you like best.”

Tough one. “We can’t have them all?”

Archer looks to the guy with the bow-tie who’s been busy running us through this cake-a-thon. He looks like he’s been doing sprints. “Can it be done?”

“I suppose so. I can’t say we’ve had a seven-tier cake before, but there’s a first time for everything.”

I almost choke on the next bite. Ain’t that the truth!

We leave the ‘testing room’ hand in hand, laughing.

I squeeze Archer’s fingers. “He thought you were serious, by the way.”

Archer remains straight-faced. “I was.”

“What the hell are we going to do with a seven-tier cake?”

Archer pats my stomach. “Judging by the way you were putting it away, I don’t think we’ll even need guests.”

I swing us around a corner and push him up against a wall, my hand rubbing his crotch. “Now, now, Mr Talbot, is that any way to talk to your new wife?”

“I suppose not. How should I make it up to you?”

I smile, biting my lower lip. “I have a few ideas.”

I throw my keys onto the bench at the apartment still ringing like a bell from the fucking I just received back at Archer’s place.

Reece stands up from the sofa. She takes in my sweaty form. “Where have you been?”

“Ah, working out.” That’s one way to put it.

She claps her hands together. “Yoga? Pilates? What was it?”

“More like boot camp, actually.”

“Oooooh, can I come next time?”

Wouldn’t that be something? “I don’t think so. The class is kind of full.” Yeah, real full.

Reece pouts. “I never get to go out.”

I sit down beside her and pick up the remote, funnily enough thankful to be free of wedding stuff for one day. It’s actually kind of exhausting… sex aside.

I know how to cheer her up. “Say, Reece, how do you feel about being my Maid of Honor?”

She eyes me. “I thought you were already married.”

“We are, legally, but Archer wants to have a proper wedding, our coming out, so to speak. What do you say?”

She kneels up like an eager puppy. “Will there be cake?”

“Seven tiers of it.”

“Hot guys?”

“The hottest.”

“Cameras?”

I gulp a little, unsure whether I’m ready for all that just yet. “Probably.”

“And what would I have to do as this Maid of Honor?”

I act casual. “You know, make sure I’m looking pretty, organize an embarrassing hen’s right, really girly girl stuff.”

She salutes me. “It would be my honor to be your Maid of Honor.”

“You’re such a goose.”

“You know it.”

Archer is running the tip of his finger around one of my nipples.
