“All right,” Ralph said. Lang and Nick urged him out and went with him. Nick winked back at Cassie, and Lang gave her that look that always made her feel warm and calm inside.
“Now it’s just us ladies.” Ellen smiled. “Let’s get to work on making you well.”
Cassie held her mother’s hand. Her mom smiled at her.
“You’ve made me very happy. I know Lang and Nick will take good care of you and all the grandchildren I’m looking forward to spoiling. This will work. The treatment has your love for me inside it. How can it fail?”
Epilogue
Six months later
Cassie put the finishing touches on the presents she’d been working on for Lang and Nick. They were going to her parents’ home tonight to celebrate her mom’s birthday and her amazing recovery. After six treatments, the cancer was gone, and she looked and felt well.
She touched her stomach. There was no way to wrap her main present for her mother. Cassie had found out two weeks ago that she was pregnant. She’d waited until Nick got back three days ago from an assignment so she could tell them both at once. They’d been overjoyed.
Nick poked his head around the door into the workshop they’d finished building for her. She’d been doing most of her work here the past month as Cindy managed the shop in town.
“Are you all right?” His eyes went to her hand on her stomach.
“I like to touch myself and hope our baby can feel my love radiating through to him or her.”
Nick wrapped his arms around her. “What a great homecoming present.”
They hadn’t had time to talk much since he’d gotten back. Cassie sat by the fireplace. He joined her sitting in the opposite chair.
“Was it a hard trip?”
“Not bad. Pretty simple. The instructions we got were good. In and out quick.” He smiled at her. “I’m fine. I promise.”
He’d worked at being more open with her and they’d become closer. He got up and went to the kettle she kept on a small stove they’d added to her room. She liked tea, and this way she could warm the water and fix it while she worked.
After heating the water, he sorted through her teas. “This is the one Nanna said would help make our baby strong and healthy.” He poured the tea leaves into the water and sat back down with her while the tea steeped.
“Are you planning to tell your mother and the rest of the family our good news tonight?”
“It seems a good time, since all our families will be together.”
“I agree,” Lang said as he joined them. His black hair was loose and wet.
He must have come in with Nick and went straight to the shower. Cassie raised her head for his kiss. Lang kissed her before strolling to the teakettle. He checked the tea and poured it through a sieve into three cups.
Cassie got up and went to a drawer in her desk. “Since I have you both here I have a late wedding present for you two.”
She pulled out two wrapped packages and handed one to Lang and one to Nick.
Surprised, they just looked at the packages. “We didn’t get you anything,” Nick said.
“Of course you did.” She held out her left hand where she wore the beautiful diamond set Lang had given her during their civil ceremony a week after the first wedding. And her fingers brushed across the pearl necklace with the diamond clip that Nick had given her that same night. “Open the presents.”
Nick tore his paper off and was the first to lift the lid on the white box. Inside was a gold-chain necklace. He lifted it out, and a medallion swung from the chain. The tiny outline of a guitar was engraved in diamonds on the front. On the back in very small script, the words
my warrior
were written. With tears in his eyes, Nick gazed at her.
Without words, she knew he understood. Her heart loved the man who played beautiful music, and the one who had accepted his duty to his people.
She glanced at Lang. He held his medallion in his large, capable hands. Like Nick’s the top was outlined in diamonds. Lang’s was a dove with two musical notes on either side of it. On the back, the simple words
a peaceful man
. She’d checked with his mother. His name Langundo stood for peaceful. It was how she felt when he was with her.
Lang came to her and pulled her up out of the chair. “Fasten it around my neck. I will wear it forever.” She put it on him and kissed his firm, warm lips. Then she turned to Nick and put his necklace around his neck.
“I, too, will wear this medallion always. When I travel it will keep me connected here.” Nick placed his hand over his heart. “I’ll be with you at all times.”
Her husbands were very different, but she loved and needed them both equally. Lang had always known that. Nick had learned to trust her acceptance and love for them both.
“I think we should show our appreciation of our gifts to our lady wife,” Nick said.
Lang swooped her up in his strong arms. “I was thinking the same thing.”
Cassie laughed as they headed to the bedroom. As Lang laid her tenderly on the bed, she warned them. “Remember, we have to be at Mom’s house by seven.”
Nick glanced at the clock. “It’s five o’clock. We have all the time in the world.” His sexy grin and Lang’s warm kiss told her they’d never make it on time.
