He kisses me, slow and deep. “You made it happen. This is all you, baby.”

“I thought we had a rule about that word,” I tease, and his gaze turns hotter.

“No, they won’t.” He pauses long enough to kiss me again, and I swear, I could melt for him right here. “They’re all wrapped up in their own happy endings,” he says, giving me a smoldering wink. “Now I’m going to go give you yours.”

And who can argue with that?
