“Abby,” Colt whispers, pain filling his tone He reaches forI need to say first

“I love you” The state behind it “I’ve never said those words to another ht I would be able to I’ve always had the love of my family and friends, and I love theet from a man you were destined to be with from the time you were born I want to deny your words, Colt” I keep ain “But I want you more I’m still scared shitless that I’ll let you down, but I’ you again far outweighs ”

The hand not held up between us clenches so tightly in rabs it, gives it a tug, and growls, “Get over here”

I don’t know if it’s his tug, or if it’ss wrapped tight around his waist I bringto taste hiht before they make contact What I see in his eyes is fierce and unrestrained Although his jaw is hard, and there’s a slight tick in his teer It’s fro
