knew she loved him. That was all that mattered.
"It's okay, baby," he groaned, kissing her forehead gently as her head tilted back, the wealth of long silken curls flowing over his arm. Her hand lifted to his face, her lips trembling as he wiped the tears from one silken cheek.
"You knew all along, didn't you?" she whispered then. "That I loved you."

"All along," he agreed with a smile.
His lips lowered to hers, moving over the soft curves, nibbling at the damp softness as the feel and smell of her sent his senses rioting.
"Hell, if I fucked you in the general's office, he would court-martial me for sure," he sighed, smiling down at the seductive softness in her expression.
"Yeah. He probably would." Her smile trembled, but it was still there.
"Wait for me, Raven," he growled, his voice husky, deep, knowing every day away from her would be hell. "I'll be home. Wait forme."
"Always,Reno ." She kissed him. Her head raised, her lips moving against his with incredible passion and loving heat. "Always."

THREE MONTHS LATER
"You are in so much trouble."
Reno tossed his duffel bag to the corner of the bedroom as he stalked inside the room, his brows lowered into a dark frown as Raven reclined back on the bed, her knee bent, her naked breasts thrusting forward in invitation as his hot gaze raked over them.
Damn he looked good. The camouflage pants made his legs look sexy as hell, planted apart as they were, the bulge between his thighs filling out the front of the material.

"Oh really,Reno , it wasn't so bad." She rolled her eyes at his miffed state. "It was just a little present."
She restrained her smile as he dug his hand into his pocket, no small feat with that erection tightening the material. Her mouth watered at the sight of it. He had been gone for nearly two weeks this time. Too long as far as she was concerned, and she was wet and hungry for him. The adult toys he had been so kind as to teach her to use the last time he was home did little to bank the fire that thinking of him caused.
She blinked as the small velvet box landed on the bed beside her. She almost had to bite her lips to keep back her smile.
"Is this a proposal?" She arched a brow as she glanced back up at him.
Oh yum. He was undressing. There went the shirt, revealing the golden expanse of his chest, muscles rippling beneath the sun-darkened flesh.
"I'm going to spank your ass," he grunted as he bent to unlace his boots. "Do you want to know where I was when that box dropped out of my duffel bag, Raven? I was in the middle of communal quarters, sweetheart, with three different teams. Can you imagine the fun those men had at my expense?"
She lifted the box, opening it, and grinned at the sight of the wedding set she had found in his dresser drawer just before he was due to leave. The short letter she had wrapped around it was missing.
Who's hiding now? she had written.
He had been so very careful of their relationship over the last three months, never pressing her for anything, but she had seen how he had steadily cemented his presence into her life.
His clothes now shared space with hers. His guitar was residing under her bed, and his prized trophies from high school and college had made their way to her small shelf downstairs. He even had his own computer desk for the laptop he often worked on. This was his home. He hadn't asked to inhabit it, he had just moved in, just as he had taken her heart, a little bit at a time. But he never mentioned taking it further, never pushed her, though she could tell he wanted to.
