It was eight in the morning before Bryson reached his destination—a jewelry store close to the chapel he was taking Milo to. Milo was passed out next to him, splayed out like he’d been ridden hard and hung up to dry. The guy was even slightly drooling.

Bryson cut the motor and just sat there, staring down at the human. It amazed him that he’d gone from being afraid of asking Milo out to buying wedding bands, all in under a week.

Things were moving so fast his head spun.

But his bear told him that Milo was his mate. Bryson just hoped like hell the creature knew what it was talking about.

Milo roused, his eyelids fluttering open as he yawned and stretched. “Why did we stop?” He moved his mouth around as if he had hair on his tongue before wiping the drool away.

“We landed on Mars,” Bryson teased, smiling at how unkempt Milo appeared. Was this how the guy looked in the morning?

Milo sat up and peeked out of the window. He frowned. “Where exactly are we?”

The owner of the store pulled into the driveway and then got out, locking his car before heading to the door.

“We can’t exactly get married without rings.” Bryson had been staring at his left hand for an hour before Milo woke up. He had tried to imagine what it would look like decorated with a wedding band.

Doubt had also started to creep into his mind through the night. He’d been so gung-ho on making sure Milo’s father couldn’t force the guy into an arranged marriage that he really hadn’t thought this through.

Was this what people called cold feet? Bryson considered himself a nice guy, but he was hardly a sap or a pushover. He needed to be sure he wasn’t doing this out of naïve romanticism.

His entire adult life Bryson had been in love with the idea of marriage. He just hadn’t inserted a groom anywhere in those fantasies.

Until now.

He had to admit that the allure of finally living out his dream was part of the reason he’d been quick to suggest this plan. But was he doing this for Milo or because he wanted to be married, to have someone to come home to? How far off the mark were his friends? Was he so stubborn that he hadn’t seen that they’d been right about his jealously toward them?

Bryson had asked himself these questions the entire ride here and he still didn’t have an answer. Maybe he was looking too deeply into this. How hard could it be to pretend he was Milo’s husband?

“Why do you look like your life is about to end?” Milo asked sullenly. “I told you, we don’t have to do this.”

And that was why he had to. Milo wasn’t twisting Bryson’s arm. The man wasn’t begging for Bryson to help him. The human was protesting just as much as Bryson’s brain was.

He was seven kinds of confused.

Milo’s lips twisted as if gathering his defenses. “Just take me home.
