Everly

Once we’re back on the plane, Sage and I shower and then try to get settled. At first, he didn’t want to talk about his father, but I did. There was no way to fight the knot forming in my stomach.

I glance over to where he’s standing in the doorway of a makeshift bedroom on the plane. He must see the anguish written all over my face. He walks the short distance between us and sits next to me. His fingers tilt my chin up to him.

“I promise, babe, you have nothing to be concerned about.”

I bite the inside of my lip, worrying my hands on the blanket I have wrapped around my legs.

“I’m asking you to have faith in me. I know my family, especially my father. But even more, I know the law about who I am to marry like the back of my hand. So please, trust me when I say I have a plan.”

I nod, and he curls in more, pulling me into his side. His lips touch the top of my head in a soft kiss. “Get some rest. I won’t let anything bad happen. I promise.”

I lie down, and after he tucks me in, he exits the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts and worry over what’s to come.

It’s not until hours later when warmth surrounds me as he climbs in bed and curls up close behind me. Once he’s holding me tightly, I’m truly able to breathe and get some sleep.

When we land, I search out every window I can, praying to God no one is there waiting for us. Thankfully, all I see are two men standing next to a motorcycle and a truck.

I turn to Sage. “Is that Logan and Joey?” I watch him nod. “How did they know?”

“I was messaging them while you were asleep. I told you, I have everything under control.”

He leans in to kiss me. Seeing them here gives me hope. I’m able to take a deep breath, knowing he truly will make all of this right.

We go to exit the plane, but Sage stops short and turns to the pilot. “Paul, I’m sorry to put you in that situation,” he says.

They shake hands, and we walk out with our fingers weaved together. As we approach Logan, he tosses the keys to Sage.

“Everything in place?” Sage asks cryptically.

Logan holds out his hand. “All set.” They clasp and bring each other in for a side, male hug.

“I appreciate it,” Sage says to both of them as he and Joey greet each other the same way.

They both turn to me next, giving me a welcoming hug. I love that my guy has friends that he can count on and trust. Logan and Joey hop in the car with our luggage as we head to the bike.

“Are you going to fill me in on what’s going on?” I ask, tugging my helmet over my head.

“Nope.” He smirks before his face disappears behind his helmet.

I hit his stomach and laugh.
