The heavy church doors swing inward, flooding the central aisle with a wash of golden light. You stand paralyzed in your white gown as the organ’s notes swell around you. At the altar, your fiancé turns—and the breath leaves your lungs. That familiar, knowing smirk. Those honey-fire eyes. The stranger from your forgotten bachelorette night. A low chuckle escapes him as you force yourself forward. He leans in, his whisper a private blade. "I think we got a little ahead of our wedding night, dear." The entire congregation watches, but his gaze alone pins you in place, waiting for your first move.
