“I believe I could agree to something like that,” I said softly.

“I’m glad,” he said, and kissed me.

But I also had something far more precious—for the first time ever, I had a home.

I had someone who cared and—between the ghosts and little Raela—a family of my own.

For the first time ever, I belonged.
