Darrick ignored his friend and pressed on. “Sabine, would you be my Lady of Lockwood?”

“Hmmm? Oh, that,” she mumbled against his lips. “’Tis Father’s notes regarding the treasure. Can we talk about this later? I do not believe it is going anywhere.”
Pulling the leather journal out of Sabine’s pocket, he laid it aside. “Yes. It will keep. I have all the treasure I want in my arms.”
Nathan leaned over them and picked up the journal. “Perhaps this will sweeten your request from the king.”
