stools at a bar table. He was disappointed not to see Miles, but wasn’t surprised since Miles hadn’t been to Club Sin in weeks. The man worked harder at his construction business than anyone Porter had met before. He’d even heard Miles recently talking about selling his company and investing in businesses instead. Porter was sure Miles was very likely financially sound already. He suspected that Miles was tired of the grind and ready to get a personal life.
    As Porter reached the table, Kyler mused, “He finally decided to join us.”
    Porter hopped onto a stool next to Dmitri, grinning at Kyler. “Had some pictures to take.” He waved at the waiter and pointed to Kyler’s beer. The waiter gave a nod, retreating to the bar to get Porter’s drink.
    Dmitri smiled. “Someone doing something they shouldn’t be?”
    “Not doing
something,
doing
someone
they shouldn’t be,” Porter retorted.
    Loud laughter erupted as the waiter delivered Porter’s beer. Seeing that all the menus were gone, indicating the guys had likely ordered already, Porter said to the waiter, “I’ll take an order of the hot wings.”
    “I’ll put your order in with the others,” the waiter replied.
    As the waiter headed back to the bar, Porter examined Kyler, who couldn’t sit still in his seat. “What’s with you?” he asked.
    Kyler stilled on the stool, bowing his head and drawing in a deep breath. “I have some news.”
    “Good news, I hope?” Aidan asked.
    A slow smile spread across Kyler’s face. “Ella’s pregnant.”
    Silence.
    Kyler scoffed, shaking his head. “I’m happy she is.”
    Breaths of relief followed before congratulations were given. Aidan ruffled Kyler’s hair, giving a beaming grin. “Our Kyler is going to be a dad, hmmm?”
    “Seems so,” Kyler replied, his eyes lit with an inner glow. “She’s only a couple of weeks, so let’s keep this to our inner circle. Ella doesn’t want to make it public until she’s passed the first trimester.” He ran a hand through his hair. “The other part of the news is we’re getting married on the weekend.”
    Porter’s brows shot up. “This weekend?”
Christ,
he’d always known Kyler was impatient, but he had no idea he was
that
impatient.
    Kyler nodded.
    Sawyer asked with a low voice, “Not to put a damper on things, but isn’t she still married?”
    Kyler turned to Aidan, who gave a nod and replied, “I took care of that. I went to law school with a judge in Savannah, so immediately after Ella’s ex signed the divorce papers, I sent them to the judge. Because of the circumstances with the abuse, he immediately granted the divorce.”
    “Which is now even more of a relief,” Kyler added grimly. “If not, it would’ve taken longer, as is Savannah’s requirement by law. I’ll tell you this, there is no way Ella will be carrying my child and not be my wife.”
    Porter chuckled softly. A Dom through and through. “Where is the wedding? We are invited, right?”
    Kyler nodded. “We’ll be having it at the Sin City Chapel, and Ella is checking out some venues for the reception.”
    “Nonsense,” Dmitri interjected, spinning his beer bottle on top of the table. “We’ll have the reception at the casino. I’ll have the chef and his team prepare a dinner in one of the private rooms and we can bring in a deejay for dancing later.”
    Kyler studied Dmitri. “Are you sure?”
    “Of course,” Dmitri replied with a nod. “It’ll be my and Presley’s gift to you and Ella.”
    Kyler smiled, appreciation enriching his voice. “Ella will be so pleased, thank you.” Then he drew in another deep breath, blowing it out slowly. “The chapel has theme weddings, and Ella picked a burlesque-style wedding. I’m sure the girls can take care of the clothing for all of you.”
    Dmitri chuckled. “They are going to enjoy this, I imagine.”
    Porter had no clue what
burlesque clothing even looked like.
Sawyer seemed equally mystified, with a pinched
