Where Our Story Begins

Previously

…Tears welled up, hot and fast, blurring the edges of the firelight. A joyous sob escaped me. This was it. The culmination of everything we’d shared, the promise of a future built on a love that was as deep and abiding as the ancient trees outside. “Yes,” I choked out, my voice thick with emotion. “Oh, Alex, yes! A thousand times, yes!” He pulled me into his arms, a kiss that was both passionate and tender, a seal on our commitment, a testament to the enduring strength of our love. As we held each other close, the quiet night wrapping around us like a warm embrace, I knew, with an absolute certainty, that our story, our beautiful, passionate, loving story, was just beginning.
