A white dusting of snow covers the chairs and tables, where we both sat together all those months ago, getting to know one another. When I didn’t know him at all. And now, I do. I know all there is to know about the complex, passionate man who’s pulled me into the eye of his storm and who loves me with every breath in his body.

“You’ve made me the happiest man in the world, my beautiful Sophie.”

I close my eyes and listen to the thud of his heart in his chest.

The man I love. Whose heart beats for me and mine for his.

“And you’ve made me the happiest woman.”

No more secrets and lies. No more running.

I’ve got all of him. And he’s got all of me. And we’ve both got our happily-ever-after.

The End
