Shay's Point of View
I'm still at a loss for words, trying to figure out what just happened when we stepped up onto the stage and Luke hands me over to the smiling Ethan.
"You look absolutely beautiful, just like I knew you would."
Ethan's voice snaps me out of my thoughts and my gaze snaps to him. He gives me a big smile as he lifts my hand to his lips, leaving a kiss on the back of my hand and I can't help the shudder of disgust that runs through me. Ethan's smile widens when he sees me shiver, probably thinking it was from delight. Delusional bastard. It takes everything I have in me not to rip my hand out of his hold and wipe it clean against my leg. Just a few more minutes. Hold it together. You can do this, Shay. I think to myself and take a deep breath.
"Are we ready to start?"
