Jack dropped his and finished his shower while Sebastian took care of Lucy.

When he’d dried her, he went into the dressing room and grabbed some clothes for her.

Lucy stood as with infinite tenderness he helped her dress.It was as if it was something he needed to do and she let him.When he’d finished, he dried off and dressed.

Jack came into the room and did the same thing.

Sebastian knelt down in front of Lucy, sitting on the edge of the bed.He took her hands in his.“Lucy, I promise you’ll never be alone again.We’ll always be with you—always.”

“Always?”

He nodded his head as he said, “Always.Promise.”

She looked up at Jack standing behind him, his hands resting on Sebastian’s shoulders.He smiled down at her so sweetly, her heart leaped with joy.

Sebastian dropped one of her hands to pat one of Jack’s.“Marry us, Lou.Marry us tomorrow.We never want to be apart from you again.”

Stunned, Lucy could only stammer, “M ...marry?”

“Yes.Doesn’t matter who—me or Jack.But we want you forever, want it to be legal.Then no one can ever come between us.We were going to propose Christmas Day, but...”His voice trailed off.

“He’s right, Lou.We love you more than life itself.”Jack grimaced.“These past six weeks have been hell on earth.”

“So, Miss Willis, will you say yes?”

“I will.”

And with that, she promptly burst into tears again, but this time they were tears of joy.

The two men quickly sat on the bed, one either side, their arms wrapped around her.

She covered her face with her hands as she sobbed.Finally, she lifted her tear-stained face and gave the most radiant smile to them.“I have no idea how it works, but I’ll marry you both as soon as possible.”

Chapter Fifty-Two

Lucy kept touchingthem.She still couldn’t quite believe the nightmarish past weeks were behind her.They spent the day trying to catch up on the weeks they’d missed being together.It was a sweet time.
