With a laugh, she glanced at the unmade bed. "Goody."

He pulled her past the bed and ripped open his ar-moire, grabbed the ring box. Thrust it into her hands.

She stared at it, then lifted her face. "Logan."

"Here." Because he couldn't stand it, he opened it for her. A square-cut diamond in a simple platinum setting winked up at them.

"You…bought this for me?"

"I did."

"But… My God," she whispered, and reverently touched it. "It's beautiful."

"Not as beautiful as you are. Say yes, Lily."

She blinked, but a tear slipped down her cheek anyway. "How about hell, yes."


He waited until she'd slipped it on her finger to bring her hand up to his mouth, then pressed it against his heart. "I love you."

"I know. I'm getting very fond of hearing that."

"Good." He hauled her up into his arms and twirled her around. "I was looking at the ring just now, before you came, wondering how the hell to get to this." He stroked a hand down her hair and stared into her eyes. "To being an official us."

"Us." She smiled, the amazing, beautiful, strong woman who'd changed his life forever. "I like the sound of that."

"Me, too, Lily. Me, too."
