Chapter 300: Marrying My Hockey Alpha

Nina

“Nina,” Jessica called out. “It’s time.”

I turned to face my friends with a teary-eyed smile. They were right; it was time for the wedding to begin. And now that I had my mom and my brother at my side, I felt happier than ever.

Lori and Jessica led me inside while my mom and Taylor headed around back to take their seats. The wedding was to be held on the back lawn of the mansion, where the seats and the altar were set up. It was a cold day, but I knew that the air would feel good against my skin.

As we stopped in front of the back door that would lead outside to the ceremony, Lori and Jessica turned to face me. They both had tears in their eyes.

“I can’t believe this is happening,” Jessica said, delicately blotting at her teary eyes with her handkerchief. “My best friend is getting married… And before me, no less.”

I half-laughed, half-sobbed at this and pulled both of my friends close for a tight hug. We held each other for a few minutes, crying and rocking each other back and forth.

Finally, Lori and Jessica stepped back.

Lori smirked and reached out to touch my face with her thumb. “You’ve got mascara on your cheek,” she teased, wiping it away from my face. “There. That’s better.”

“Well?” Jessica asked. “Are you ready?”

I nodded, then took a deep breath.

Suddenly, I felt a tap on my shoulder and turned around to see my father standing there.

“I’ve only just met you after more than twenty years apart, and now I’m walking you down the aisle,” he said with a chuckle. “It’s funny how those things work, isn’t it?”

I nodded and laughed as well. “I guess so,” I said.
