They had a few minutes before PaulVer gave them the go. So Cole stole one.
He stole a moment with his wife, grabbing her from behind and wrenching a beautiful laugh from her throat.
She spun toward him, smiling, showering him in sparks of brilliant chaos. It took courage to walk this dangerous life with him, and she was built for it, born for it. His perfect mate.
“What are you doing?” She leaned up, running her nose along his whiskered jaw. “We have bad guys to kill.”
“So bloodthirsty,” he growled. “Kiss me, woman.”
She tilted her smile heavenward, offering up her glossy cherry lips.
The instant he kissed her, he breathed all the more deeply. Together, they shone brighter. A serenity of souls, fighting in a dark world and reaping their forever.
“I’m in love with you,” he said.
“I’m in love with love, and you, Cole Hartman, are all of that.”
“Ready?”
“Forever or bust.”
“Forever it is.” He kissed her again and laced their hands together. “Let’s go.”
