“Mia, you need romance in your ornery soul. It’ll only be us in there, how about that?”
I laugh. “I’ll think about it.”
“We can get a dog.”
“I like cats more.” After all, I’d been thinking about an army of them, and now I feel I owe one a home. But a dog is nice, too. I don’t say that. “A cat. I like them.”
“You would.” He kisses my ear. “How about we compromise? Get one of each?”
“It sounds like a plan I like. You me, a cat and a dog.” I’m silent a long time. “Christian, Russo isn’t going to stop.”
He shifts, trailing his fingers down my spine. “He will with you. He can’t make you marry him if you’re married to me. or if I’m with you.”
“But Leo—”
“Sweetness, he can take care of himself. So can I. But for now, we have a future to plan.”
“And an entire future to live our lives in.”
“That,” he says, “is the plan.”
“Thank you,” I whisper.
“For what?”
“Making me see I belong.”
“Sweetness, you did that to me, too.”
And as I snuggle down, the future is bright. Because no matter what is thrown at me, as long as I have Christian, the love of my life, the love of my life who loves me back, I can do anything.
Because of love’s heated caress.
Because of him.
