RULES OF LOVE (A Navy SEALs Romance) (61 page)

Much to Billy’s delight, Sophia and I got along famously. He had finally reached a place where he could talk to her again. It was great to meet the woman who had taught him so much about love, and I realized our similarities were significant.

Our son, Jasper, was growing up to be a well-rounded, well-educated child. He was starting school soon, and it would be a hard milestone for me to deal with. I was already having a hard time with him going to preschool, but Gretta had been helpful, taking him to and from his appointments.

Gretta and I had grown close. She needed help when her son went off to college, and she would talk to me about how I could survive sending my young son off to school. We had coffee.

I fit flawlessly into Billy’s life, and no harm has come to him.

Fiona apologized to Billy a couple of years later, and they were on speaking terms for a while. She admitted he wasn’t for her, and he still treated her well. I was glad there were no hard feelings.

Kent and I were friends again as well. Shortly after me, his high school sweetheart came back into his life. We laughed about the whole thing now, happy our lives had led us where they did.

We met Billy at the restaurant, the one he first took me to that night all those years ago.

He still looked great, even if he was in his fifties now. I felt more in love with him every day.

“Hello, Dr. Carson,” he said. I really was
a doctor now, so I couldn’t scold or correct him. Billy had put me through school, and I was now a psychologist.

“Hello, dear.”

We put Jasper in his high chair, and I smoothed his hair. Zach was on his phone, as usual. I looked around at my new life and sighed in happiness. Billy was more open than he ever had been, and our love grew and grew every day.

I looked at Billy the Billionaire, whom I had grown to love and know so intimately. I wouldn’t give these years back for anything; everything was right in the universe.
