GRAYSON
“What about a garden wedding in honor of your mom?”

If the moon goddess ever asks me for my favorite moment in this lifetime, I think I’m going to tell her about this one. Right here. Jessica’s laying on top of me, all bone and warmth and habit, barefoot and too serious, making suggestions about our wedding like it isn’t the most holy thing I’ve ever heard come out of her mouth.
Well, not exactly suggestions. More like commands, whispered against my collarbone like they’re secrets she’s still afraid to speak loud.
“Not too many people,” she murmurs, her lips moving against my throat as she talks. “No stupid speeches. No throne chairs. And no omega–binding rituals. I want it soft. Just us.”
Just us.
Just us.
I hold her tighter like that’ll keep it real.
The bed of the truck is lined with one of my jackets after she took it off. Crickets are singing somewhere near the trees. Above us, the sky cracked wide with stars. Moonlight spills down her back like a second skin.
She shifts, rests her chin on my chest so we’re face to face, moonlight pooling in her lashes. She’s studying me like she’s memorizing the shape of my face. Or the sound of my heart. Or the color of what we’ll lose.
“Would you really do it?” she asks. “A garden wedding?”
“I’d marry you in a landfill if you asked,” I say, smiling like it doesn’t ache. “But yeah. Garden sounds nice. You’d look like spring.”
“Gross.”
“I mean it.”
“You’re gross.”
She hides her smile against my ribs, arms winding tight around me like she wants to burrow inside and stay. I let my hand wander through her hair.
“Promise me something,” she says, voice so soft I almost miss it.
“Anything”
“If something happens–if things go bad–I want you to remember this. I love you.”
I don’t say anything right away. I just look at her. Her eyes, her mouth, the starlight strung across her

cheekbones like freckles. Every piece of her is already a memory and we’re not even gone yet.
“Jess,” I whisper, and my throat goes tight around it. “You don’t have to-”
“I want to.”
