hers. “Thanks for being willing to fight for me. I love you, Drake.”
Stepping back, he took her hand and squeezed it. “Then let’s go find your father so you can give him the dance you owe him and hopefully get out of here soon.”
“You lead and I’ll follow.”
Her heart soared as they walked out of the alcove hand in hand.
Epilogue
Eight months later, to the dismay of her mother and pride of her father, Kiera Branson walked down a makeshift aisle between over a hundred guests in the middle of the Harrisburg Airport runway—closed for the day.
As the attendees sat in elegantly decorated chairs and looked on, the minister had them recite their vows.
“Do you Kiera Macy Stanfield Branson, take this man to be your lawfully wedded husband?”
Staring at the man she loved with all her heart, she nodded and proclaimed, “I do!”
Shifting his attention to her groom, the older man asked, “Do you, Drake Morris Rhine, take this woman to be your lawfully wedded wife?”
“For the rest of my life, I do!”
Standing before him, she trembled with indescribable joy.
“The rings, please,” the minister requested.
She turned to Brigitte, who stood beside her, as Drake faced Antwan and got their rings.
Once they were facing each other again, the holy man continued, “Please repeat after me. With this ring I thee wed.”
Both of them had agreed that they would place the rings on each other’s fingers simultaneously. Doing so, they recited the words as they held each other’s stare and held the rings at the base of each finger.
“Now, it is my honor to pronounce you husband and wife. You may salute your bride.”
“Have I told you lately I love you?” Drake pulled her body against his.
“Not today you haven’t.” She slipped her arms around his neck.
“Well, I do love you, more today than yesterday.”
“Good, because my love has grown too.” She smiled at him.
“Kiss her already,” Antwan shouted.
Taking his best man’s advice, Drake sealed their union with a kiss.
