“You’re the reason I’m the man I am,” he whispered.
She cupped his face, her eyes soft and full of love. “You were already a good man, my love. But we make a great team. Individually, we are strong. Together, however, we’re formidable.”
“Oh, sweetheart.” Her eyes glistened with unshed tears. “The thing is, everything is already perfect. Because you’re here with me. You’re all I need.”
He brushed a tear from her cheek. “Everything I do is for you.”
“I love you so much that it sometimes feels as if my heart is about to burst,” she said as more tears fell.
“I love you.”
“I love you more.”
“I love you most.”
She turned her head and met his gaze. “Forever and always.”
