Unableto take it anymore, he grabbed her around the waist and picked her up off theground. "Well, come on woman, get to peeing," he demanded as hecarried her to the toilet, setting her down in front of it. Turning, he swipedthe tests off the counter. "We've already broken a few sacred rules in thebook of Leviticus last night, peeing in front of me is nothing."

"ZachariahWaatese!" she began to yell, but he cut off the rest of it with a kiss.

Working his mouth over hers, Zach remembered theyears of loneliness he experienced without her by his side, all the doubt andanger he endured wondering what she was doing. But now, here she was in hisarms, accepting him for exactly who and what he was ready to make a new lifewith him.

Pullingaway from her, Zach smiled at her dazed expression and swollen lips. "Ihave loved you from the moment I saw you, sweetheart, and I always knew I wouldkeep on loving you until the day I die."

"ButI'm very glad you finally caught me," she added softly.

Zachgave her a broad smile that promised hunger and watched as her eyes widened atthe full display of his sharp teeth. "I'm glad I caught you too."
