Vanessa was just finishing up with work and was eager to have roast beef hash with William when she got a call from Edward. She couldn’t believe he would think she would even consider being with him again.

“Hey, Vanessa, I’m sorry for what happened before. I guess I just wasn’t ready to get married then.”

“That’s too bad. The roses are lovely, but too late. I’m seeing a cougar and he’s really good for me.”

“We—”

“There’s no we, Edward. You forfeited our relationship when you didn’t show up to our wedding. You know how humiliating that was? Not to mention the expense of the wedding was all on me?”

“I’ll pay you back. I’m sorry. I was a fool.”

“Yeah, you were. Do you know my father was afraid you’d been killed or something? And he found you were drunk at your place? Don’t send me anything else. I don’t want anything from you. It was over between us when you didn’t show up at the wedding.”

He hung up on her. She shook her head. Jerk. She hadn’t thought she’d needed closure with him. But now she felt she did. He wouldn’t have been the right man for her.

Then she smiled. Not like one hunky family physician seemed to be. And she was truly ready to move on.

She was surprised when William showed up for dinner that night and carried a white and fluffy Great Pyrenees puppy inside. He was so adorable. Well, both William and the pup were.

“Ohmigod, you are so cute.” Vanessa took hold of the puppy. “Who is this?” She hadn’t thought William had a dog. She certainly hadn’t seen any sign of a puppy at his home when she’d had dinner there, not to mention she hadn’t smelled him in the house.

“Chase found him by the lake and I said I would take him in. I called him Buddy. I hoped it was okay to bring him over. I didn’t want to leave him alone.”

“I’m glad you brought him over, and he is adorable. Buddy is a great name. He’ll need to be housebroken, if he hasn’t been already though.”

William looked clueless.

She smiled. “Come on, Buddy. Let’s go potty.” She and William walked him outside. She had a quarter acre of land that was fenced, but he was still so young, he just stayed near them. Once he’d relieved himself, they took him back inside.

After dinner, they put him in the crate William had brought and then she and William had a fun run to the waterfall. They finally returned home to take Buddy outside again for a potty break. Midnight wrapped her body around William’s legs before he took Buddy home.

“You seem to be an animal magnet,” Vanessa said, smiling.

“And kids gravitate toward me.”

“It helps that you make funny balloon animals for them at summer socials.” She had admired him to be able to do that. He’d been all smiles and having a blast as much as the kids were.

He crouched down to stroke Midnight’s back and she purred while Buddy was trying to climb on William’s lap.
