“I’ve got a great workout for us, and I’m going to work you so hard, you won’t know what hit you.”

“Bring it on, Kind. I can handle anything.”

I lay her on the bed and hovered over her. As I stared into her eyes, I couldn’t believe this amazing woman loved me as much as she did, and in just a few short months, she’d become my wife. A woman I’d share the rest of my life with and love with all my heart and soul.

“I love you, Charlotte,” I softly spoke.

“I love you too, Conner.”

“You know I live to make you crazy, right?”

“Yeah. I know.” The corners of her mouth curved upward. “But, no matter what, the universe is on our side.”

“Damn right, baby. Damn right.” I leaned in and brushed my lips against hers.

CHAPTER6

Charlotte

I walked into the bathroom with a cup of coffee, and Conner was cussing.

“Did you cut yourself again?” I laughed.

“I’m glad you find it amusing.”

“Come here.” I took the razor from his hand, sat on the bathroom counter, and wrapped my legs around him. “I don’t understand how a brilliant surgeon cuts himself shaving.” I gave a cocky smile as I brought the razor up to his face.

“You do know that I cut into people, right?”

“Do you want another cut on this side to match the other side?” I arched my brow. “Anyway, be quiet and be still.” After I finished shaving him, I handed him a towel.

“Thanks, babe.” He kissed me. “I need to hurry it up before Jackson gets here.”

As he was getting dressed, I went to the kitchen to wash out my coffee mug, and the sliding door opened.

“Good morning, you two.” I smiled. “Look at you, Dr. Kind. You look like you’re ready for surgery.”

“I am, Aunt Charlotte. I can’t wait.” The excitement was splayed across her face.

“Is my brother ready?” Jackson asked.

“He’ll be down in—”

“I’m ready.” Conner ran down the stairs. “Hey, you.” He picked Ella up. “Bye, babe.” He walked over and kissed me. “Text me when you’re on your way to the hospital.”

“I will. Good luck. Good luck, Dr. Kind.” I smiled at Ella.

“Thank you, Dr. Roman.”

“Are you ready, Dr. Kind?” I glanced at Ella as we finished scrubbing in.

“I’m ready, Dr. Kind.”

“Good morning, everyone. You all know my niece, Dr. Ella Kind. Ella, this is Dr. Smith. He’s an orthopedic surgical resident.”
