“Yes! Oh God. Yes!”
I run and kneel on the floor and hug them both, giving them kisses on both their faces.
Camila comes forward from the kitchen with happy tears streaming down her face. “The box.” She motions toward the black box Kalum holds out in his hand.
“It’s okay, Momma. It’s pretty.”
Kalum opens the box, and the most beautiful ring I have ever laid eyes on sparkles in the light. It is big but delicate, with three giant stones.
“One is your past, one is your present, and one is for your future. The two woven diamond bands on the ring are for our children.” He looks at LJ and then at my stomach. “LJ, are you ready to be a big brother?”
“I’m going to be the best,” he says and looks at me. “I promise, Momma.”
“You are already the best. Both of you,” I say softly.
Kalum hugs us both. How could I be so lucky to have fallen in love with two boys who would do anything for me?
Epilogue
AURA
Iwatch my husband with both one-year-old Kalum Jr. and LJ as they play in the pool at our home in Spencer. We bought a new home to spend time closer to Exie and Dex. Camila is still like a mother to me, watching over our sons as if they were her own grandchildren. I don’t treat her like a babysitter or housekeeper but like a mother. She helps me, and I help her, and if it wasn’t for her, I would have never met the most wonderful men in my life. Kalum and Lane.
Since marrying Kalum and becoming Mrs. St. Claire, Lane’s parents dismissed the case against me. Exie had the board outvote them and be removed from the company, leaving Exie as CEO, and they quietly retired. My business has taken off online, and I am happy to be married to Kalum.
You can’t help falling in love.
I fell in love twice in my life.
How is that possible?
There is a time when you meet the one you are destined to be with, but sometimes, time isn’t ready. You get a glimpse if you are lucky. We move on, and if that person is your true love and destined to be your last, they will love you no matter what happens. This year or the next. Five years. Even ten.
They will let you go if your happiness means more to them than their own. I will always love Lane and will fulfill his dream. He will always be part of me, and the best part is that his legacy will live on through our son. Our love lives through him.
“Are you ready, Mrs. St. Claire?” Kalum asks, the water sluicing down his
sexy, tatted frame.
I smile. “Yes.”
I grab our beautiful baby boy Kalum Jr. as his chubby arms reach out for me wet with his swim trunks from Camila’s lap.
LJ comes out of the pool, drying off.
“Are you ready?” LJ asks, his face lit up with excitement.
I smile. “Yes, baby.”
Today is LJ’s birthday. All of our family and friends are ready to wish him a happy seventh birthday. His first track is built to practice with his Kid Karts in the back of our property. He has a great love for race cars, like his father. Kalum caters to his every whim in both love and understanding. I look around at my family. At my husband. Our sons. LJ slides in his Kid Kart with the same look as his father.
This is us.
Now and forever.
