“I love you,” I whisper as the pleasure takes over, chasing away everything but this moment and the man I’ll spend forever with.

EPILOGUE

Gaines

Three Months Later

The soft breezefrom the Pacific Ocean trails a path through my wife’s hair. It bounces off the side of her face. She pushes it back, laughing as she does.

“When you said you were taking me on the honeymoon of my dreams, you weren’t kidding.”

She doesn’t know the half of it yet.

I glance at the house that we’re calling home for the next two weeks. It belongs to Otis and Irene.

They attended our wedding and before the night was over, Otis made me promise I’d bring my beautiful bride here to Maui, so I made that happen.

The staff manning the house are preparing for a very special event.

Eloise believes it’s dinner to be served on the beach.

That’s part of it, but the prelude to that is what I sense will take her breath away.

“Dance with me,” I offer her my hand.

She spins in a tight circle, sending the skirt of her strapless white dress into the air. I catch a glimpse of the white lace panties underneath.

I want in them, as I always do.

I fuck my wife at least once a day, often twice.

Work keeps me busy, but I make time for her. I will always make time for her.

Otis taught me that a man can serve his patients, and also cherish his wife.

“There isn’t any music,” Eloise points out.

I hum a made-up tune.

She lets out a chorus of giggles. “I kind of like that, Garin.”

“Do you?”

Her head pops up. “What’s wrong with your voice?”

“That wasn’t my voice.” I spin her around in my arms so she’s facing the man who inadvertently has played a major role in our lives.

Claude Garin, dressed in linen pants and a white shirt, much like what I’m wearing, waves to my wife. “Hello, Eloise. It’s been a long time.”

She stops dancing, but clings tightly to me. “You don’t remember me.”

“I do.” He nods. “You came to see me in Buffalo. You brought a copy of my book. You wanted it signed.”

Her gaze catches mine. “Is this real?”

“It’s real, lamb.”

“Your husband asked me to join you tonight,” he goes. “If that’s all right with you.”
