“I’ll help you.”
Morgan threw herself into me, wrapping her arms tightly around my neck.
“Why do you do all these amazing things for me?”
Pulling her tighter against me I replied, “Because I love you, Morgan Greene.”
She pushed back and then did a few happy little hops and spins. “Oh my gosh! I need to do my hair! And put makeup on!”
Then she disappeared.
Exactly one hour and twenty minutes later, I put the pearls around her neck as she stood in front of the mirror in my mother’s gown. It looked beautiful on her and fit her like a glove—again, thanks to Kaelynn for giving my father the measurements from Morgan’s June wedding gown.
“One more thing.”
Her hands were on her stomach as she watched me in the mirror. “Blake, the necklace is enough. I never even knew there was a such a thing as blue pearls. I love how they make my eyes—”
She stopped talking when I opened the next jewelry box.
“Are those?” her eyes snapped up to meet my gaze.
“Blue diamonds.”
Morgan’s hand slapped over her mouth as she said, “Blue diamonds!”
“They are rare and precious, just like my wife.”
Morgan cupped my face in her hands and lifted up to kiss me.
“Blake Greene, you are precious. More precious than any rare gem, and you are mine.”
The knock on the suite door pulled my attention away. Stepping back, I asked, “How do I look? My tux okay?”
“You look so handsome I’m already looking forward to slowly peeling it back off of you.”
Wiggling my brows, I kissed her and then headed out of the room quickly to answer the door. Opening it, I saw Greg, the manager of the hotel, standing there with a wide smile on his face.

??Mr. Greene, we are ready for you and your wife.”
“Perfect. The flowers?”
“Ready.”
“The trees?”
“All lit up like you asked.”
Turning, I saw Morgan descending the stairs. I could not believe this stunning creature was mine.
I cleared my throat and said, “My God. She takes my breath away.”
“She is very beautiful, indeed. You are a lucky man, sir.”
Without taking my eyes off of her, I nodded. “Yes, I am.”
“So, are we ready?” Morgan asked, a hint of pink on her cheeks.
