Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle by Aurora Starling

Silver's POV

"You look so hot!!" My best friend, Rebecca, squealed as I walked out onto the platform in my wedding dress. We were the only ones in the shop, so I didn't have to worry about sharing the space.

My dirty blonde hair fell past my shoulders. On top of my head was a small veil with a sparkling gem. I felt as if I had just walked out of a fairytale book.

I wasn't wearing any makeup; I was happy that my naturally tan skin beamed. This pre-wedding glow I had heard about was real.

"It's too bad that Gavins isn't here to see it," I said thoughtfully.

"No, that's a good thing," Rebecca said, raising her brows at me.

"Why?" I asked.

"It's bad luck for the groom to see the bride in her wedding dress, Duh!" Rebecca said.

I spun, watching my dress twirl. I felt absolutely beautiful.

The fabric was form-fitting at my waist, then puffed out and fell elegantly past my ankles. It hugged me in all the right places.

To top it off, my oil painting was displayed in full color on the ivory fabric. I had worked tirelessly on the design for months. It was an honor to display one of my paintings this way.

Oil painting was my safe haven, and I had an exceptional talent for it. The piece I had worked on for my wedding dress was filled with my favorite neutral colors. All of which swirled into a beautiful pattern. "You are truly a great artist," Rebecca said. "It was so lucky that you could be a part of the design process."

I nodded.

My artwork was so important to me. Getting to wear it felt like a dream.

"It's perfect," I said. "Now, just one more day to wait."

"Actually, you barely have twenty-four hours at this point!" Rebecca pointed out.

It was true. This time tomorrow, I, Silver Stormwind, will already be married to my amazing fiancé, Gavin Crown.
