Epilogue

Jake

Sienna burst out of the patio door.“They’re here.”

I turned down the grill while she strutted toward me.Sile and Bianc had flown back from Rome last night.

She threw her arms around my neck.“Camila and Jodie have picked Willie up and they’ll be there in ten minutes.”

Fuck, I’d never get tired of seeing her shining bright.I kissed her before we headed toward the front door.

After lunch, my Siennawas seated on the daybed by the pool with Cam, Bianc, and Jo.When I handed beers to Sile and Willie, she smiled that smile.

“Right there.The way she looks at you.Pure love,” Willie said.

Settling down beside Sile, I lifted my beer in a cheer at the old man, who jerked his chin.“When are you going to marry our little rainbow?”

I rubbed the back of my neck.The old man was fucking up my surprise.I’d bought the ring two weeks ago, and I was going to take her to Venice in four days.

My Sienna grinned.“I’m already Sienna Rhodes.”

At that, the women gasped and talked over each other.

“You got married?”

“Cara?”

“Did you elope?”

Sienna shook her head, and a throaty giggle rolled out of her.“No.No.What I mean is I’m Sienna Rhodes.”She touched her fingers to her chest.“In here.”

And she was my whole fucking world.

“So, there will be a wedding, right?”Cam asked.

“Yes,” I said.

My Sienna hit me with more of her soft light before turning back to her girls.

Bianc asked, “Where?Have you picked a dress yet?”

My beautiful future wife shook her head.“Um...I was kind of expecting you, Camila, and Jodie to do that with me.”Tilting her head to Willie, she said, “And I wanted to ask you if you would walk me to Jake.”

The old man’s head jerked back, and she sat up.“Oh, you don’t have to.I just thought—”

Willie rolled his chair to the side of the daybed and stretched his hand out.When she took his hand, he pulled her to his lap, and his voice shook.“I’d be honored, pretty girl.”

Sile’s hand gripped my shoulder.“Congrats, brother.”

His eyes slid to Bianc.Since they’d arrived, Bianc and he hadn’t exchanged a single word, and my brother had been pissed.He got up and opened his arms to Sienna, who wrapped her arms around his waist.

She tilted her grin up.“We’re going to be officially family.”
