Last night with Beau was incredible. But the best part was waking up in his arms this morning. I’d never felt so safe and loved. The way he curled into me, his arms tightening like the very thought of losing me could cripple him … It was everything.

And despite an evening spent doing a lot more than just sleeping, when we woke again, we ended up wrapped up in each other once more before the sounds of Silas calling for me pulled us from the hazy bubble of honeymoon love.

As I walked to get him, I realized it was the first night in a long time that Silas hadn’t woken up. Maybe he was just as comfortable as I was with Beau and claiming him for our forever family.

“Hiya,” I smiled at the receptionist as I lifted the tray of coffees from Rhythm and Brews before heading through the station to Beau’s office. I was passing a notice board with posters for police investigations when a face caught my eye.

My heart jumped into my throat, and I looked around quickly, confirming no one was looking at me before I grabbed the piece of paper and yanked it off the board.

I stared at the color photo of Silas with the headline AMBER ALERT across the top. My eyes scanned the information, confirming my ex had put a notice out for him and claimed I abducted him. Funny how there was no information about how he shot at both of us before I ran out.

“Rosie.” I looked up at the sound of my name, shoving the paper under the tray of coffees, and turned to Beau. I had to force a smile onto my face. Seeing the notice only left me feeling more jittery than the coffee would.

Had he seen it? Did he already know?

“Hey, Beau.” I crossed over to him, holding out the tray to let him take his drink just as he leaned in to kiss me. The tray bumped his chest, and coffee sloshed out the hole, dripping onto my hand and the paper.

“Ah, whoops. Let me help.” He began to take the tray from me, and I pulled back quickly.

“No, I’m fine.” I exaggerated my movements as I twisted the tray out of the way and kissed him, hoping to pull his attention away from my hand again.

“Sorry I rushed out this morning. I’m not normally late, but …” He blushed slightly as he recalled exactly what made him late this morning, “I can’t say it wasn’t for a good reason.”

I smiled and kissed him again before nodding. “It’s fine. I wasn’t offended. I locked up like you asked and put the key in the plant pot.”

“You could’ve kept it if you—well—if you wanted to. I don’t mind.”

My heart raced as I fought to keep a silly smile off my face. “You already want me to have a key to your place?”

“Sure, why not? I have a room for Silas. What’s mine is yours … If you want.”

I stared at him, forgetting for a moment my reality.
