Another Groomsman, Kyall.

“All clear,” Vinny told Alexa.

The bride-to-be stepped past Vinny and into the doorframe. He couldn’t resist one last touch of his secret lover, Vinny’s hand gently stroking Alexa’s side as she passed. Alexa could resist that final contact with Vinny either, as her hand echoed his.

Just as Kyall Rigby stepped around the opposite corner from the one Vinny had been watching.

“Whoa! Hey! What’s all this?” Kyall almost yelled.

Vinny spun to the sound and pulled Alexa back into the hotel room from the hallway, but it was too late.

“Don’t go running away!” Kyall called out, breaking into a short run to catch the door before Vinny could close it in his face.

“Who’s in there?” Kyall asked as Vinny interjected himself between Alexa’s impending Brother-in-law.

“No one,” Vinny told him, trying to put as much deadly seriousness into his ice voice as he could.

“The fuck there is! That was Alexa. I saw her. What are you two up to?”

“It’s okay,” Alexa told Vinny softly and put her hand just below his shoulder to pull him back to let Kyall in.

“You’ve been fucking in here, haven’t you? I can smell it. You’re having an affair! Aren’t you? You dirty cheating slut, and you’re about to marry my brother.”

Kyall had been called away from the start of the rehearsal dinner due to the late arrival of his ex-wife, Leanne. He had to give up his room to her due to a booking snafu, or he wouldn’t have been walking past just then to catch the two adulterers. He was glad he did.

Vinny was incensed at Nyall calling Alexa a slut and shoved Kyall back hard into the wall.

“Vinny, don’t!” Alexa cried and grabbed her boxer lover and tried to drag him away from Kyall. Her strength was practically nothing compared to his, and she couldn’t budge him a centimetre.

“That’s it! I’m leaving and telling Daniel everything and getting you kicked out of this hotel.”

Alexa let go of Vinny and grabbed at Kyall instead. “No! Please, Kyall, don’t! It was a mistake. I’ll do anything.”

Nyall's mind whirred rapidly. What was Alexa willing to do to protect her secret and save her wedding and future marriage? Kyall was already feeling frustrated from having to deal with his bitchy ex-wife. Why did she have to be such a cunt and then look so unbelievably hot at the same time? Leanne had been working out hard recently to get herself in the best shape of her life just before she ran into her ex-husband. “Anything?” Kyall left the word hanging as a threat.

Alexa just trembled. Her foreseeable safe and secure life was crumbling before her eyes. Those same eyes that were being stung by tears of shame at having been caught. It was the one single thing she’d been dreading happening for years. And to happen on all days, as the night before her wedding.

Vinny just glared, ready to deal out **** at any second.

If Alexa wasn’t going to say anything, Kyall would. “For me not to tell my brother you two have been screwing around and not devastate the poor bastard… you’re going to let me fuck you too. Right now.” Adrenaline coursed through Kyall’s body. He’d always thought Alexa was incredibly sexy. Far too good for his dipshit brother. He’d dreamed about having sex with her but never thought it would actually happen. This was how it did

“I’m going to break your fucking jaw,” Vinny growled, and he meant it.

Alexa had to scream, “Wait!” to get him to stop carrying out his threat.
