He breathed a sigh of relief and just held her to him. Never would he have ever wanted her to go through something so tragic and he was glad she was now in his arms. The sound of her howl of despair echoed in the back of his mind, and he didn’t want to think of what would have happened had his family not had the party that night.
He pulled back from her and tipped her chin up. Using the pad of his thumbs, he wiped her tears away.
“No more tears,” he murmured. “They wouldn’t want you mourning them.”
“I know. My sexy bitches are smiling down on me from Heaven.” Her lips curved up into a smile.
He shook his head at her, and her laughter surrounded them.
Feeling a grin spread across his face, he lowered his head and captured her lips with his.
His woman was back, and he had everything he needed right here in his arms.
The End
