Dolly laughed and nodded. “I want a big family.”

She laughed, wrapping her arms around his shoulders. “Maybe after I finish my degree? You know, the nonprofit charity project we spoke of starting years ago? I was thinking of something like that.”

“Right. Humanizing me a little more, Dahlia?”

“Not to prove anything to the world but for ourselves, Ares.”

“That sounds perfect.”

And Dolly knew that she would never doubt her place in the world again. She would be Ares Demetrius’s wife and she would be needed and wanted and loved for the rest of her life.
