“I don’t understand what you’re getting at, Bell,” Galen sighed. He reached for her hand and brought it to his lips. “I belong wherever you are.”
Bell smiled and moved closer to him.
“Of course you do because we belong together,” she said, leaning forward and gently nuzzling her cheek against his hand.
Galen lifted her chin to look at him.
“Good, because it sounded like you were trying to send me away again for a moment.”
Bell gave him a gentle smile.
“I already told you that I believe our future is in Summer,” she began. “Seeing you the past couple of days has been incredible. I love seeing the pride on your face when you accomplish a task.
“Like I said, you have been amazing in Winter. You have helped with everything and never complained about anything. But here, this is your home. I can see that so clearly now.”
Galen swallowed.
“But your home is Winter,” he said softly.
Bell smiled.
