The Runaway Groom

Chapter 985

Zachary's voice was quiet but there was no hiding that quiver in it. "If you don't, I can’t promise I won't get physical."

Martin actually understood where Zachary was coming from, but there was no way he would surrender Lulu.

Heaving a long sigh, he chugged both shots, while Zachary poured himself another and chugged it too.

He slammed the shot glass down heavily, smacking his lips and saying," Wow, this burns."

In fact, the taste of the alcohol was so hot it burned him in the lungs!

Martin poured him another. "It does pack a punch."

Zachary looked up at him, frowning. "And you're still drinking?"

Martin poured himself another as he said, "You have fine tastes. Very sweet, even."

"Are you talking about the drink?’ Zachary stared at him meaningfully then.

"Was that what you're asking?" Martin asked in return, smiling.

There was no telling what either of them meant, but they chuckled as their eyes met.

Picking up a shot glass and clinking it with Martin's, Zachary said, "I guess you're luckier than I am."

Martin did not deny it, and they both chugged.

Martin refilled their glasses, and Zachary asked, "Won't you be crawling home if you get
