Lucas’ kiss slowly shifted from urgent to tender; he cradled her face as though she were the most fragile
treasure.
“Lucas…” She whispered his name, only to have it swallowed by his lips.
He pressed her into the softness of the mattress, yet carefully braced his weight on his arms so he wouldn’t crush her.
His mouth traced from the corner of her lips down to her slender neck, lingering there as though he meant to brand her with his presence.
“Sloane…” he murmured hoarsely, her name breaking on his tongue with a raw vulnerability he had never shown before. “You’re mine…”
At last, Lucas pulled back from the long, consuming kiss, resting his forehead against hers, his breathing still uneven. In his deep, shadowed eyes, her reflection shone back at her; the love there was enough to drown her.
“Thank you…” His voice was soft, weighted with a gentleness she had never heard from him.
Sloane shook her head with a smile and leaned forward to brush her lips lightly against his. “I don’t need your thanks.”
Lucas let out a low laugh. “Then what do want?”

Her fingertip pressed lightly against his chest, feeling the steady, powerful rhythm of his heart. “I want this.”
He froze for a moment, then caught her hand and pressed it firmly to his chest. “It’s already yours.”
“No,” Sloane whispered, her eyes warm and steady. “I want you to stop hiding it. Joy or sorrow, I want to share it with you.”
Lucas’ Adam’s apple shifted as he swallowed hard; a flicker of emotion flashed through his eyes. He bent down and kissed her fingertips. “Alright.”
Just one word, simple and quiet, yet heavy as a vow.
No one was happier about Lucas and Sloane being together than Tessa.
Seeing the two of them side by side, she grinned so wide her face seemed to glow. “Oh, I’ve waited half my life to see this day.”
Molly laughed as she chimed in. “Madam, your only task now is to stay healthy; next year you’ll be holding a great-grandchild,”
Tessa’s eyes lit up, but then she frowned. “Actually, I’d love nothing more than a great-granddaughter as
sweet as Sloane,”
Excited, she clasped Molly’s hand. “Just imagine-a little girl in a pink dress, with braids bouncing as she toddles behind Lucas, calling ‘Daddy’ in that tiny voice… wouldn’t that be perfect?”

But mid-laughter, her expression dimmed. “It’s a pity… his father won’t be here to see it.”
