Promises After Dark (After Dark #3) (39 page)

A small, tearful laugh burst from her, and she squeezed his hands.

Alex thought she was the most stunning thing he’d ever seen, and it was hard to believe he even existed before meeting her. “You’re so beautiful. I’m the luckiest man on earth.”

She smiled brightly, lifting her tear-filled, luminous eyes to his. Alex’s own throat was tight, and his eyes burned. He loved her so fucking much, he couldn’t even breathe, and she was all he would ever want.

“Surprised?” He smiled softly, rubbing his thumbs over the tops of her hands.

“You are
so gonna get it
later,” she said, her voice, though cracking, was amused.

Alex laughed softly, his eyes unable to look away from Angel’s face, but his eyebrow cocked in amusement. “Promise?”

“Oh, I
promise
.”

“Me, too.”

After Angel handed her bouquet to Becca, Alex took both of her hands in his and kissed the inside of her left wrist, his mouth open and caressing. Their eyes locked, and it seemed like they were all alone on this beach, and the entire planet.

Everyone watched the couple in silence, and it was as if time stopped.

“I love you, so much,” she said in a soft, trembling voice. The tears she was holding back finally broke free to tumble down her cheeks. “I can’t believe how much.”

Alex thought the tears only made her more beautiful, she’d wrapped around his heart from the very first time he’d laid eyes on her. A hundred years wouldn’t change it. “I love you, more.
I promise
… I love you, more.”
