Chapter Fifteen

“If I would have known I was going to be your maid of honor I would have worn something besides black,” I whispered as we walked up the aisle—actually just the center of the small room near the back of the club, which was usually rented out for corporate functions.

“That’s all right—it’s not like it’s for real,” Taylor whispered back, clearly trying to be brave. “I mean, is it?”

“No, of course not. Not really,” I assured her uneasily as we paced slowly forward.

Corbin had been thoughtful enough to have the room decorated with white lilies and blood red roses. There was even a small altar at the front with a padded bench, presumably where the bride and groom would kneel across from each other. Corbin stood beside the altar, waiting patiently and holding a large, ornately carved golden chalice in his hands. The soft strains of Pachelbel’s Canon piped in through the hidden speakers completed the wedding feel of the place.

“At least the room looks nice even if I am dressed in black,” I said, trying to comfort her. “And you look beautiful.”

“Fat lot of good it does me,” she muttered back. “Marrying a guy who already hates me.”

“He’ll love you when he gets to know you,” I said. “And if he doesn’t, screw him. You’ll be out of it in three months.”

“Three months. Right.” She sighed unhappily. We were almost to the end of the aisle where Corbin and Victor were waiting. The were had put on a black suit coat, probably loaned to him by Corbin, which was stretched tight across his massive shoulders, and he was glaring at poor Taylor.

“Stop looking at her that way,” I snapped at him. “She’s beautiful and perfect and you’re lucky to get her. Besides, she’s saving you fifty thousand dollars, you ungrateful bastard.”

“Addison…” Corbin gave me a warning look. “Here at the altar of unity only words of love and devotion may be spoken.”

“Fine,” I muttered. Giving Taylor’s arm one last squeeze, I stood back. “Sorry.”

“It’s all right.” She gave me a grateful look and then turned to face Corbin. “I am ready, Master.”

“Very well.” He nodded and cleared his throat. “We are gathered here tonight to join this male and female and give them in ownership one to another. If anyone can show just cause why this should not be so, speak now or forever hold your peace.”

He gave me a stern glance and I bit the inside of my cheek. I had plenty of reasons why my poor friend shouldn’t be handed over like chattel to a rude, ungrateful werewolf but it was the only way to save her.

I kept silent.

“Good,” Corbin said after a pause. He looked pleased. “Will the two of you kneel before me now and join hands?”

Taylor knelt at once side of the padded alter and Victor knelt opposite her. He was so much bigger than her that even kneeling, he towered over my friend. Then they just looked at each other.

“And join hands,” Corbin repeated, frowning.
