“I love you,” he said to her once they had settled in the coach.
“And I love you. I have a little surprise for you,” she said as love filled her heart to the brim.
“Oh?”
“I’m a week late.”
Matthew stared down at her. “Is that unusual?”
“Very. I’m quite timely.”
“Do you think?”
She smiled at him. “I certainly am hoping.”
Pleasure lit his face. “I am, too.”
“I love you,” she said for the tenth time that day. “I never thought I could be this happy…until you.”
“And do you believe I didn’t marry you for your money?”
She reached up and stroked his cheek with her hand. “I never believed you wanted me only for my money. Except perhaps that first night at my birthday ball.”
Matthew reached over and pulled her onto his lap. “That was the only time.”
“I know.” She kissed him fully and felt the spark of desire skipping up her arms. “You know, we could take the long way home.”
“My thoughts exactly.”
