"O-one portrait," I whispered, and he replied.
"That's all I want, Rose." He said, sounding very sensual, and I gulped softly as I rubbed the back of my neck.
"I-I guess I c-could," I replied, and he let out...

Brent's POV
Five Years Ago
Walking back into the wedding reception, I greeted a few of the guys at their designated tables before taking a seat at the wedding party table.
Looking around the room, I took a small sip of my wine as I watched Rosenna and Gavin greet the guests. The maid of honor took her seat beside me, and I had to pretend to listen to her speak as my eyes remained focused on the happy couple.
I was the best man at my best friend's wedding. It was a joyous occasion, one where we all celebrated the union of two soulmates who decided to spend the rest of their lives with one another through thick and thin, till death do us part.
I had no reason not to be congratulatory toward my friend. We were landing clients left and right at the firm, and for God's sake, we just made partner after reviving it when Gavin's parents passed it down to him.
Everything was going perfectly...
Well, that is what it had seemed like. Under the surface, there were a few more underlying issues. Some have to do with the way Gavin glanced at one of the bridesmaids as she walked past.
Others have to do with Rosenna smiling gracefully as Gavin's mother practically scolded her for a small portion of the wedding. Not to mention, her smile faltered ever so slightly as her own father practically forced her off of his arm after walking her down the aisle.
Simply watching without acting was paining me, to say the least, but I couldn't say anything. I could never say what I wanted. Even if I wanted to, it was too late.
The maid of honor soon grew bored of me, and I watched as she left to bother someone else. She and Rosenna grew close only over the last few months or so. Kira, was it? I didn't know her too well, but as Rosenna's assistant, she often contacted me about certain things regarding their upcoming loan.
The other seat beside me was pulled, and I noticed I had spaced out slightly. Looking over my shoulder, I grinned softly as Rosenna downed her glass of wine without any hesitation.
"Feeling alright?" I asked her and she nodded softly as she crossed one leg over the other before sitting back.
"Just fine. Thanks for asking, Brent." She responded, and I said nothing as my eyes shifted to her waist and thighs, which were now accentuated by her white silk reception dress. Looking away, I masked my groan with a slight cough as she looked over to me curiously. Her intoxicating scent filled me to the brim, and it took absolutely everything in me to control my thoughts that wanted to go straight to my dick.
