“Is that a threat or a promise?”

“It’s a promise you know I’ll keep,” I tell her as I stand. That’s when she sees the baby in my arms. Her mouth parts as she takes me in, holding our daughter. A genuine smile tugs across her face as I close the distance between us. When I’m in front of her, I raise my free hand and wrap it around her neck, pulling her toward me.

“You know what this means?” I ask her.

“What?”

“That you’re mine, Little Lamb. Every goddamn part of you is mine.” She nods her head before pressing her lips to mine briefly. Ranger clears his throat, and we pull apart.

“You ready?” he asks. I take a deep breath and nod my head as I turn and head for the back door. Neither of us has friends aside from Ranger and Karen, and that’s all we need. Stepping out the back door, there’s a priest and some dark decorations. You would think it was fucking Halloween, not a wedding. I smile as I take it all in.

“You like it?” Sage asks me. I turn to look at her and nod.

“It’s perfect, Sage.”

“I’m glad you like it.” I nod once more as we walk toward the priest. Sage reaches over and tries to take Onyx from me, but I shake my head.

“No. She’s part of this,” I tell her. She smiles bigger, and it takes my breath away. The priest does his thing, and we say our vows when Sage looks over at me.

“We might fail sometimes. We might fall, but we’ll always rise and do our best.”

“Sage, you don’t know what you mean to me, and I don’t have the fucking words to tell you. My heart beats for you. Any light I have in me is from you. You gave me that. There’s no one in the world I’d rather spend eternity with.”

“You love me,” she says smiling at me. I smirk and pass Karen the baby before reaching for Sage’s throat and tugging her to me.

“I don’t hate you.” Then I kiss her. I kiss her like my whole life depends on this moment and it does. Because this is the moment I pledge the rest of my life to her. She’s going to be mine in every sense of the fucking word. I have Sage and Onyx now, and there’s nothing else in the world I could ask for.

I may still have issues that need to be dealt with, and I may still have urges, but what I feel for the two of them far outweighs anything else I might feel.

“Come on, Ares,” she begs me. I shake my head before smiling at her.

“Will it make you happy?” She nods her head. “Okay. I love you, Sage.”
