"I was just thinking that this beats the hell out of an 'I love Eli Donnelley' button or a laminated membership card."

Eli chuckled. "For what it cost, it better." He took the ring out of the box and slipped it on her finger. "Be mine, Wilkes. Forever. Let's make this official."

She looked down at the ring, then stood on her tiptoes to give him a kiss. "I'm all yours. I always have been."

He pressed his forehead to hers. "I'm so fucking lucky."

"Speaking of lucky..."

He cocked his head. "What?"

"Take a picture with me?"

"Sure."

She took a selfie of the two of them, holding her hand up in the picture to show off the ring.

"Perfect."

"Is this to commemorate the occasion?" he asked, amused.

"That, but I've got something else in mind, too."

She attached the photo to a text and typed "Kingsnakes Eli Donnelley is officially off the market" in the message box before hitting send.

"I just thoughtTheLucky Bounceshould have first crack at the headline. Eat your heart out, Lyla."

Eli laughed. "She's going to turn green with jealousy. You're so bad, Wilkes."

"But you love me anyway."

He swept her into his arms. "Oh yeah. I do."

Holly grinned. "Remember those two words, Donnelley. You're going to need them."
