Page 28 of Cain
Cain looks over at me and he looks shocked. “I would love to take you, but you have to promise me something.”
Amy looks up at him a hopeful expression on her face.
“You have to wear a beautiful dress.”
She smiles so hard and wraps her arms around his neck. “Yes! Thank you!”
A tear falls down my cheek as I watch the two of them together.
“I need to go tell Casey! Maybe she can come too!”
Cain puts her down and she sets off running.
He turns to me, shock still written on his face. “I can’t believe she asked me that.”
“I can. You’ve been amazing with her since that first night. She’s never had a man in her life who treated her like she mattered.”
He pulls me close to him. “You both matter more than I think you realize.”
“I think I’m starting to get it. You’ll have to be patient, though. Scars take time to heal.”
He kisses me again. “Time is something we will have plenty of.”
