Victoria

The memory of that day still burns as brightly as if it only happened yesterday. Andrew is right, of course. If his plane hadn’t gone down—if we hadn’t suffered through the ordeal we did—we wouldn’t be here now, waiting for our baby to be born.

“I love you, Victoria. I love you more than words could ever express. I wish…I hope that this small piece…” He shakes his head. “I know it doesn’t do justice to what I’m trying to express.”

My eyes fill with tears as he helps me to put the pendant around my neck. I turn back to him, standing on my tiptoes to kiss him.

I pull away, smiling. “I love you so much, Andrew. More than I can ever tell you. And I love how much you’ve grown since that day—how much we both have. You’re going to the best father—”

He interrupts me with a kiss, his lips lingering on mine for a long moment. When he pulls away, I could swear his eyes are shining, too.

I place a hand on his cheek. “I have a present for you, too.”

He wraps his hand around mine, kissing the inside of my wrist. “You didn’t need to get me anything—”

“Well, it’s nothing compared to this…” I touch the pendant hanging from my neck. “But I hope you understand when we get there.”

“Get there?” He grins, kissing my wrist again. “Are you certain you want to leave the suite?” He arches a brow, and I can see exactly what he means—we’ve both been counting the days until we could finally be together again. And I might be huge, but I plan on making this night as special for both of us as I can.

I grin. “You’ll see in a few minutes.”

Andrew helps me with my coat, and we make our way outside, arm in arm. I’m sure he knows exactly where we’re going—he doesn’t seem at all surprised when he finds our destination is the small gardener’s cottage on the far side of the palace grounds.

We’ve spent a lot of time here since I first came to Montovia. It’s the one place where we’ve been able to just be us—it’s almost as if this is truly our place. The place where we first became a couple. And tonight, I want it to be special for us again.

We open the door, and Andrew grins, turning to me.

“I know it isn’t much. I didn’t have a lot of time—”

“It’s perfect. Perfect.” He leans down, kissing me again. He pulls away, smiling down at me. “How did you manage to hang so many lights by yourself?” He glances around the room.

My heart skips a few beats. I can’t remember the last time I saw my husband this happy—truly happy. I can’t help but smile at the warmth I feel inside at seeing his joy.

“And this tree…where did you get it?” He walks a few steps over to the small Christmas tree I’ve set up.

“I had a little help. And I would have done more, but considering this was the first day I was allowed out of bed…” I smile.
