EPILOGUE

Three months later

DAMIAN BOUNCED UP and down on the balls of his feet, jittering like a fighter waiting to swing his first punch. Adrenaline pumped through his veins, turning his usually calm and collected self into a bundle of nerves. Tonight was a big deal. The biggest deal.

He finally had Lainey back home. All to himself. Her job in London had kept her busy, and she had settled in. Eventually. But doing the long-distance relationship wasn’t easy, and she’d insisted he keep his business in Australia. Because she was going to see her six-month contract to completion and then she’d bring all that knowledge home and use it to find her dream job in the place where she belonged. In Melbourne. By his side.

But there was only so much Skype sex that could satisfy him, and with their schedules—not to mention the twenty-four-hour travel time from Melbourne to London—he’d been missing her like crazy. He hadn’t seen her in a whole damn month, and it was killing him.

Tonight, however, would be everything he’d been waiting—and planning—for. It’d had taken him a bit longer than he’d wanted to get things arranged. But time had been required to get the stars—or in this case the moon—aligned.

He tapped his foot as he stared at the stream of people in the arrivals area. They all seemed to blend into one human blob, until she appeared. Her bright red hair was a shocking contrast to her all-black outfit. She looked like some kind of sexy superhero ninja.

And it sure as hell felt that way when she launched herself into his arms with all the force her slender frame could manage. He kept his feet firm on the ground and enveloped her, pressing his lips to hers and inhaling the oh-so-familiar scent of her perfume. His hands were in her hair, at her back, holding her so tight because the fear that she would evaporate into thin air was terrifyingly real. His throat felt raw from the emotion rushing up out of nowhere.

Damian wasn’t the kind of guy to get all teary, but fuck if he didn’t feel a prickle at the back of his eyes. Who the hell was he right now?

“I missed you so much,” she said, her own eyes sparkling. “And I really can’t wait until they invent teleportation so people don’t have to be on a plane for that long.”

“Cool your jets, princess. You were in first class. That is nothing to complain about.”

She grinned. “I was comfortable. But it was way too long before I got to see you.”

“You’re here now.” The words clogged in his throat. “We’re together. Everything is right again.”

The drive was quick. Lainey filled the car with her chatter and every little update on her life in London, her excitement and happiness radiating out and tangling him up. He’d planned the evening meticulously—every detail was carefully arranged, from the venue to the dessert to the view. And now he found himself as anxious as a teenage boy on his first date.
