I ’m wondering if I can just go ahead and kidnap my soulmate. The wait is too long. I don’t need a ceremony to tell me she is mine, but it makes her happy and is good for our people. I should be in charge, the leader, but with the nervous Nellies at my side, I am impatient.

I want to see my wife. I want to kiss her and tie her to me forever.

I knew the first moment I saw her that she would be mine, but I never realised how deeply I would be hers.

Seeker king.

Leader.

Warrior.

It all means nothing without her now. She’s my queen, and I will be her king forever, only because she places that crown on my head.

I debate stabbing Drax when he shifts for the hundredth time, but I keep myself in check, knowing she would beat me up for that—fuck, that would be hot.

Just then a breeze blows up my kilt, making me shiver.

The music begins, and I ignore the warrior skipping down the aisle, my eyes seeking out my soulmate.

And she steals my heart all over again.
