“More precisely, Hawk did.”
“He wasn’t married.”
“Never had been. Apparently when a man in our family loves, it is for a lifetime.”
Joyous tears washed into Ellie’s eyes as she turned back to the minister to finish repeating her vows.
But Sandor squeezed her hand before she spoke. “I also destroyed the merger contract your father and I signed.”
Her knees did buckle this time and Sandor swept her up against his chest, her voluminous skirts cascading over his arms.
“You did what?” she demanded.
“Took away your last reason for doubt.”
He had and she felt light-headed because of it. “But what about Dad’s company?”
“I’ve got a lot of good years in me yet. Helen is coming to work for me as a close advisor. She’s a savvy business-woman. And one day I’ll have grandchildren.”
Ellie looked around her from the grinning minister who didn’t seem to mind the odd ceremony to the small group of people all of whom were now her family. Finally she met Sandor’s possessive and adoring gaze.
She was loved and she loved in return.
She was finally part of the family she’d longed for her entire life. And it felt so very good.
She finished speaking her vows without ever looking away from the man who had in his way made all of this possible.
He was her knight in shining armor, no matter what he said and their future looked so bright she would need a new pair of sunglasses to handle it.
