He turned and picked up a tie from the counter, then handed into her.

“I’m wearing this for our marriage license photos today. Try to make it look good, okay?”

That was when Marina realized the tie Daron handed her matched perfectly with the outfit he’d picked out for her, like they
were a set.
She bit her lip and shot him a glare.
“If you could just loosen your hold a bit, maybe I could actually get this done,” she muttered.
‘How am I supposed to tie his tie when we’re practically glued together?‘ Marina thought, feeling totally helpless.
Her look carried a hint of playful annoyance, though she herself didn’t even notice it.
Daron arched an eyebrow, a smile playing at his lips as he obediently loosened his hold, making it easier for Marina to tie
his tie.
Marina was determined to tie the knot perfectly, wanting it to look flawless.
But for some reason, the tie that usually cooperated with her on the first try was being stubborn today–almost like it was deliberately messing with her.
No matter how many times she tried, it just wouldn’t look as good as it usually did when she tied it without thinking.
After several failed attempts, Marina’s pretty brows furrowed tightly in frustration.
Daron reached up and gently touched her furrowed brow.
The gentle warmth of his fingertips made Marina pause, startled, and she realized she was getting way too worked up over
this.
She bit her lip, trying to tamp down her nerves.
“I just can’t seem to get the hang of tying a tie today,” she muttered.
Maybe it was because Daron said they were taking marriage license photos, so she wanted everything to be perfect, and that idea stressed her out. The more she tried, the more nervous she got.
Seeing her relax, Daron reached out and closed his hand around her slender fingers, which were still resting on his tie.
“It looks pretty good like this,” he said softly. “It doesn’t have to be perfect. Sometimes a little flaw gives it character.”
Marina looked up at him, catching her reflection in his dark, bottomless eyes, and felt a sudden ache in her nose.. overwhelmed by emotion.
Daron leaned down and brushed a soft kiss against her lips, then gently ruffled her hair.
“I’ll wait for you outside,” he said softly.
Marina felt that the way Daron looked at her, so full of affection overlapped with the guy she always dreamed about.
For a moment, her mind went completely blank.
Seeing she didn’t answer, Daron hent down a little, meeting her yes
What you want me to stay and help you get ready?‘ he teased, playful glu in his eyes.
As he spoke, Daron reached for Marina’s outfit on the rack, his ex twinkling with mischief.
“It’s not like I’d and helping you out,” he teased.

Marina snapped back to reality and hurriedly grabbed her clothes from his hands.
I can do it myself,” she blurted, a bit embarrassed.
Daron raised an eyebrow, a teasing look in his eyes.
Marina quickly pushed him out of the walk–in closet and shut the door behind him.
As soon as the door clicked shut, Marina took a deep breath, finally feeling like her heart was back in place.
Daron’s effect on her was overwhelming.
It was almost impossible not to want more from him.
Marina changed into the outfit Daron had picked for her, then stood in front of the mirror, gazing at herself in the red suit for what felt like ages, lost in thought.
The suit hugged her figure perfectly, as if it had been custom–made just for her.
