The one who loved me intensely, his eyes reflecting just how much.
And the man I had plans on marrying.
As long as he got down on one knee and asked.
Love wasn’t necessarily blind, but it could be bent and morphed from the strangest places. I’d been used in a game, but in the end, I was the one who’d come out the winner.
The mobster and the prosecutor. It had a nice ring to it.
I could only imagine the future for the hottest couple in two countries.
EPILOGUE
Jonny
“Daddy. Daddy. Daddy!”
I would never get tired of hearing Christian’s little voice. As he raced toward me, I couldn’t help myself, scooping him into my arms. “How is the birthday boy?”
“I want cake.”
“And you’ll get lots of cake.”
“Not yet,” Sedona said from the doorway. She stood giving me a very heated look for two reasons. One, because I’d given her a spanking only hours before for disobeying me. And two, because she’d been forced to be the bad parent, requiring Christian to eat his vegetables prior to getting any dessert.
Although she continued to sneak him cookies for breakfast every now and again.
“Party pooper,” both Christian and I said at the same time. The kid mimicked almost everything I said, which meant cursing was now out of the question. Well, at least around him.
She shook her head, sashaying toward me. Wearing jeans and a gorgeous crimson sweater, it was all I could do not to drag her into the closest closet and have my way with her.
I had a feeling she wouldn’t allow me to get away with that since we had a house full of guests for my son’s fifth birthday.
“Now, now,” she tsked, wagging her finger at both of us. “I think you might have some presents to open. But only if you eat your lunch. Do you think you can do that?”
Christian wrinkled his brow, thinking about the offer. “Can I have cake afterward?”
“Absolutely. Lots and lots of cake.”
He threw out his hand, giving her a very stern look. “Then it’s a deal.”
They shook hands and I let him down, shaking my head as he scampered off. “He’s getting more like you every day, Ms. Attorney.”
“Uh, no. He’s definitely turning into a carbon copy of his father. I’ll need to fix that before it’s too late.”
“Hey! You fell in love with that man.” I pressed my index finger against my chest, shaking my head as I closed the distance.
“Did I?”
“Perhaps you need a reminder.”
“Hmmm…” she purred as she threw her arms over my shoulders. “Maybe so. What do you have in mind, big man?”
“So it’s little man and big man now. Huh?” I rolled my hands down her back, unable to stop myself from sliding my hands under her bottom, lifting her into the air. She promptly wrapped her legs around mine, giving me a mischievous look.
“When the shoe fits…”
“You are one very bad girl.”
