A Couple of Forevers (This Time Forever Book 2) by Adrienne Williams

she was only focused on Elliott, whose eyes widened
when he saw her.  Of course he had seen Renee at her very best and indeed she
was effortlessly beautiful.  But today was different.  Today, she had outdone
her own self.  She saw it in his eyes, too.  A look of love, admiration, and
horniness all at once.
    Her wedding gown fit her curves perfectly.  The gown that
Renee wore was not the same gown that Liza, Kayla, and Lena saw.  She decided
to go with the third gown.  It was strapless and the bodice was made of satin
and was ruched.  This portion of the gown really accentuated her curves.  The
satin portion of the gown stopped right above the knees and then transitioned
into a layered tulle and satin skirt that went all the way to the floor.  The
cream color of the gown was the perfect contrast for her creamy, chocolate complexion. 
Liza and Kayla looked at each other and Lena clasped her hands together and
said, “Lovely, just lovely.”
    When Renee reached the altar with Elliott, and after Dennis
had taken his seat next to Sharon, she looked up at him and simply said, “Hi.” 
Elliott responded by moving in closer to her for a kiss, but was interrupted by
Judge Nichols.  This evoked laughter from the guests.
    After they said their vows and the judge announced them
husband and wife, Elliott pulled Renee close to him and she placed her arms
around his neck for a brief, but searing kiss that made each of them moan loud
enough that the judge heard them.  He raised his brow slightly and smiled at
them.
    As they ran down the aisle and out to the waiting limo, the
guests clapped and voiced their congratulations to the happy couple.

    In the background, making sure not to be seen, Maggie
watched as Renee married the man that she had banished her from all those years
ago.  She saw Kayla and Matt.  They had grown up to be beautiful, like their
parents.  She even saw Dennis and Sharon.  Dennis looked happy.  Happier than
he could have ever been with her.  She wanted to make her presence known, but
she knew better than to disrupt Renee’s big day.  The way that Maggie found
that Renee was marrying Elliott was because one of Renee’s friends from high
school had dropped by to congratulate her.  Renee’s friend thought that Maggie
knew.  The fact was, during their last conversation, which had been shortly
after Matt and Kayla’s birth, Maggie had the gall to call Renee and tell her that
she was making the biggest mistake of her life.  She remembered Renee’s exact
words to her:  “Maggie, the only mistake I made was allowing you to talk me
into breaking Elliott’s heart.  And now he’s somewhere in Africa.  My children
are not a mistake.  They are my babies and I love them.  But you wouldn’t know
about that, would you?  Consider this our last conversation, Maggie.  I never
want to hear from or see you again.”  Over the years Maggie came to realize
what she did was wrong.  Now, she wished there was a way to let Renee know
that.

    After picture-taking had been completed, Elliott pulled
Renee into his arms and smiled at her.   She blushed and said, “What, Elliott?”
    He said, “Renee, you look so beautiful.  I don’t even have
the words to describe just how gorgeous you are, but when we are alone in a
little while, I intend to show you what I’m feeling.”
    Renee slipped her arms around Elliott’s strong back and
gently stroked it.  She would have to be blind to not see how handsome and sexy
he looked in his suit which fit him perfectly.  His hair had been cut just
enough to be neat, but still with enough length for her to run her fingers
through his beautiful waves.  His dark blue eyes were framed by thick, dark
lashes and he had shaved, exposing his square jawline.  Feeling his long, lean,
muscular frame pressed intimately against her like this while they were fully
clothed was just a taste of what was in store for later that night.
