Married My Ex's Alpha Uncle by Aurora Starling

"You're about to squeeze the living hell out of me," Rebecca complained, but she was chuckling. "So, what did you two want to discuss with me?" Marco asked.

The nervous knot formed in my belly once again and I suddenly wasn't feeling too well. I wasn't sure I could go through with this. But I knew if I didn't, I would end up getting hurt way worse than I had already. Elliot found his true mate and there was nothing I could do about that. Shirley was always going to come between us, and he was always going to let her. This was nothing more than a contract marriage, there wasn't supposed to be love or feelings involved. "Come sit down in the parlor," I suggested. "There's wine and cheese."

He nodded and we walked into the parlor. Marco sat on one of the cushioned seats and poured himself a glass of wine while Rebecca and I took the couch.

"So, is everything okay?" He asked.

"If I tell you something, will you promise to keep it between us?" I asked him. "Like client/lawyer confidentiality?"

He raised his perfectly groomed brows at my words.

He put the wine glass down and leaned back in his seat, watching me curiously.

"Of course," he answered. "Even as a friend, I would never spill your secrets."

I nodded, thankful for him.
