Alien Warrior's Challenge (Brion Brides 8)(17)

Paula didn't know what to say, so she just didn't say anything. She jumped into his arms, kissing her gerion so deeply it made her lips hurt.

"Are you happy?" the captain asked, grinning at her, knowing perfectly well that she was.

It felt good to say it out loud, though.

"Yes," Paula said, smiling. "I am happy."

"Then," Kerven replied, pulling her into his arms. "We should celebrate. Afterward, we can decide where we'll be going first."

The entire galaxy, open for us. This is a dream.

If it was a dream, it was definitely a good one. Kissing her fated, Paula couldn't stop smiling, thankful that sometimes fate was persistent in bringing people together in love.
