PART ONE: SILVER
First Look
His dance partner for the wedding came thirty minutes late for their first practice. A tiny, voluptuous nineteen-year-old who came barreling through the doorway with a flushed face, long, wavy blonde hair flying behind her.
Silver March forgave her on the spot.
He had to. He wasn’t the type to have sex with girls he disliked.
Everything about her was fascinating. The way her pretty face was bare of makeup, even if she had dark circles under her eyes. The way she tried to hide her curves under shapeless clothes. And, most of all, the fact that she came in wearing a pair of Jordans while everyone wore three inch stilettos—
He found it hot. Amusing, too, but hot. Enough for him to use one full second to ensure his body was put under control.
She scanned the room, seeing everyone paired up except for him. She went to him immediately, walking so fast he was certifiably impressed by her speed. And amused. Everything this girl did was
refreshingly
…amusing, the way she was so genuine and wholehearted in her actions.
Looking at her under his lids, he noted how nothing in her face showed any kind of surprise or excitement that he was to be her dancing partner. Did she know he was a last-minute substitute? Did she know who he was? Did she think he was hot?
Silver almost started at the last question that popped into his mind. Where did that even come from? He couldn’t remember the last time he had even cared to wonder what a woman thought of him. Most times, there was no need to even wonder, the way every female he encountered would throw herself at him.
“I’m so sorry I’m late.” A husky voice that had his body stirring again, but in a tone that was brisk and apologetic at the same time. Clearly, this girl didn’t like wasting words. She looked up at him with a grimace. “One of my guys—”
He blinked. “You have kids?”
She was visibly taken aback at his question. “Uh, no?”
He was even more stunned. Then that meant she was in that kind of relationship?
Her eyes widened, and then she grinned. “Oh, no, no,
no.
You got it all wrong. When I say ‘my guys’, I mean the guys in the basketball team I’m managing.
That’s all.
One of them had an injury and I had to at least make sure that he got to ER okay before coming here.”
“I see.” It took him a while to answer. He needed a few moments to make sure he didn’t sound relieved. Even if he was. When he had thought she was in a ménage a trois –
Silver almost shook his head in exasperation. What the hell was happening to him? Why did it matter so much that this girl wasn’t with anyone?
“I’m Lace Wyndham, by the way.” She offered him her hand immediately.
“Silver March.” He grasped her hand. It was tinier and rougher than most female hands but somehow, he found that hot, too.
She beamed up at him. “Hello, March.” Releasing his hand, she said, “I have to say you’re one of the prettiest boys I’ve ever seen.”
He blinked.
Before either of them could say anything, Liam, the groom-to-be, came bearing down on them, holding in his hand a pair of stilettos.
Lace groaned at the sight of it. “Noooooo.”
Liam grinned. “Yes.” He tossed the pair to her, which Lace caught with one hand. And then both of them said at the same time, “Perfect pass.” They grinned again, and it was clear that the two knew each other very well.
Silver needed another second.
So this
, he thought with a frown,
was what jealousy felt like
.
First Dance
“Hey, March.”
“Wyndham.” They fist-bumped each other the moment Lace reached him. It was their fifth practice together, and by now he was used to the way Lace did things. She was the least self-aware person he had ever met, the least
coy.
The way she looked at other men, the way she spoke, the way she acted – it was as if she really did consider herself of the same gender as men.
If only the other men in the room thought the same, then maybe Silver would feel a bit more at ease. But at this rate, he felt like he had to be on his guard all the time, needing to protect his unsuspecting lamb from the wolves circling around her.
There were twenty groomsmen, including him. Half of the group were from the same high school as Liam and Lace, and they all treated Lace like a kid sister. The other half were Liam’s college friends – and they all looked like they want to have a kid with her.
Bastards.
Evangeline Lace Wyndham was his.
Tonight, Lace herself would know that, too.
Fifteen minutes later, and the music started to play. He and Lace assumed their positions, her hand on his shoulder, his hand on her waist. In the previous practices, they had only danced the first sequences, none of it requiring them to close the distance between their bodies.
