Chapter 19

There could not have been a more perfect evening, Ann mused as Trey led her up the quiet stairwell. The ranch hands had already returned with Zoe. And while they’d stayed up long enough to fill Ann and Trey in on what they’d missed at the after party, the group was spent. They’d hit the sheets no later than one in the morning. That was over an hour ago.

Trey slipped an arm around Ann as they approached the hallway.

She liked how it felt there. Warm. Familiar. There was a strange mix of emotions whirring between them: the excitement of possibility, combined with a sadness of sorts, knowing their time together was short. Ann was almost certain she’d come visit again soon. That idea alone gave her hope. It already had her looking forward to when she’d see him again.

Ann slowed as they neared the bedroom doors. “I can’t believe the party crew made it to bed before we did,” she said in a whisper.

“Yeah,” Trey agreed. “Step aside, Randy and Zoe—we’ve got some new party animals in town.”

Ann laughed at the irony. While the other couple had been tipping back drinks and dancing through the night, Ann and Trey had lounged in front of a fire playing Scrabble. She wouldn’t have traded with them for anything.

Trey reached out, took her by the wrist, and gently turned her hand over in his. With the lightest touch, he trickled his fingers over her palm. He moved up to her wrist, and then back down. Ann let her eyes close as she took in the tenderness of it. She kept them closed as he lifted her hand, pressed a warm kiss on the center of her palm. “One more day,” he mumbled against her skin. “Promise you’ll come back and see me soon.”

See him. Ann hadn’t missed that. The next time she came here, it would be to see Trey, not just Cassie. “I will. I’d love to come back when she has her baby. I’ll look into the flights.”

“Or I can try to get to Seattle. How fast do you think I’d make it by horse?” he joked, pulling her in for a warm, comforting squeeze. “You’re mine in the morning, right? Before you go shopping with Cassie? Randy and I are making you two breakfast.”

Ann wrapped her arms around him, surprised at how natural it felt. At how very connected she felt to Trey in that moment. “Right.”

He pulled back, cradled her face with his hands. “Goodnight then, Annie.” He pressed his lips to hers, a short, nearly torturous tease.

“Goodnight.”
