I grinned. “You do know flattery will get you everywhere with me, don’t you?”

“I love making you feel good.”

“You do it so well.”

“I can’t believe I’ve been living here for a month now. It seems like only a few days, and yet it also seems like I’ve known you forever.”

I sighed happily. “That’s because we were made for each other.”

“I think we were. You’re the light I needed in my life.”

“And you’re the grumpy, bossy man I needed in mine.”

He glared at me, then smiled that full smile I’d only ever seen when we were alone. “I’ve never believed in fate or anything like that, but I know you’re mine.”

I kissed him once more. “I am. Always.”
