“Small ceremony,” Haisley reminded her friend. “Just family.”

“We are family,” Trees rumbled. “All of us.”

Murmurs of agreement filled the room. Nash looked around at these people who had risked everything to help him save Haisley. His brother. His team. His family.

The meeting wrapped up, updates given, plans made. As people began filtering out, Nash pulled Haisley close and buried his face in her hair.

“You okay?” she whispered.

“Better than okay.” He lifted his head to meet her eyes. “I love you. Both of you.”

Her smile was radiant as she guided his hand to her belly. “We love you, too.”

“Two weeks,” he murmured against her lips. “Then you’re stuck with me forever.”

“Promise?”

He kissed her deeply, pouring all his love and hope and determination into it. “Promise with all my heart.”
