Alea smiled at Dane. “Give him a call. See if we can help.”

It was what she did now. She helped and she opened her heart. She was so much richer for it.

The baby in her arms wriggled, and she settled in. She had a few hours to be warm and peaceful with her guys. Lan cuddled up beside her as Dane started talking about all their plans. Cooper got under the covers, his hand cupping Mat’s little head.

Dane stopped at the end of the bed, staring at them. “Hey, have I told you you’re beautiful today?”

Tears filled her eyes. He said it every single day, and every day she held the words to her heart and believed them just a little more. She nodded and blew him a kiss.

She was a princess by title, but her men had turned her into a queen.
