“You cheated,” she accused him.
He laughed hard and leaned across to give her a kiss. “I admit I changed out here.”
“Where’s your suit?”
“In the car.”
“I hope you’re not going to take a long time to find the right spot.”
“Is my gorgeous wife nagging already?” he teased. Stavros started the engine and they were off down the road.
“Well, it is our honeymoon and I’ve never been on one before.”
“Neither have I.”
“I’m nervous.”
“So am I.”
“No, you’re not.”
“I’ve never been a husband before. I want everything to be perfect for us, Andrea.”
“It already is because your father came and he loves you.”
“Agreed.”
“I have hopes of his coming to our first baby’s christening.”
“First?”
“Yes. I want your babies, darling. I told your mother I want us to be friends. She’ll make the most wonderful grandmother. Honestly, Stavros, she’s such a beauty it’s no wonder you turned out like a Greek god.”
He grinned. “I did?”
“My friendship with her is important to me.”
“When she gets to know you better, she’ll come to realize that the daughter she always wished she could have is my angel wife.”
Tears trembled on her lashes. “Dad is crazy about you.”
“I like him.”
“He said those exact words to me about you before he walked me down the aisle. The ceremony was perfect.”
“Short.”
She chuckled. “I know traditional Greek weddings take hours. Thank you for sparing us that in this heat.”
“The black sheep strikes again.”
“Now that we’re partners in crime we’ll be known as Mr. and Mrs. Black Sheep.”
He threw back his head in laughter.
It thrilled her that he sounded so happy.
“Did you know you looked like a vision coming down that aisle? I was so mesmerized I couldn’t think.”
