After their lips clung and they drew apart, Marcus gave a wry shake of his head. “How soon can we get married?”
“A few weeks maybe?” she asked.
“Is that enough time for you to plan a fairy-tale wedding?” He imagined that’s what she would want, and he could see from the light shining in her eyes that he was right.
“My mother and the queen can do wonders. It will be enough time.”
“Good. I don’t think I could last more than a few weeks without really making you mine.”
“You can do that tonight,” she said from a new boldness that came from a confidence in what they were together.
But he shook his head. “No, I want to do this right. You’ll be giving me a wonderful gift, and I want to give it the respect it deserves, the respect
you
deserve.”
She threw her arms around his neck and tilted her forehead against his. “No matter what the DNA testing shows, you
are
a prince. You’re my prince.”
Marcus knew he would do everything in his power to live up to her faith in him. “I love you,” he said again, wanting to make sure she knew it.
In a few weeks he would pledge his heart and soul and life to her and she to him. Whatever life brought, they’d face it together—hand in hand, heart in heart. They would love and cherish each other…forever.
Special thanks and acknowledgment are given to Karen Rose Smith for her contribution to the CROWN AND GLORY series.
