Chapter 154 She Was Here

She was here... Hannah...his bride...so radiantly beautiful...smiling at him...her green eyes sparkling... and holding the long white bridal veil was the plait of pearls, looping over the top of her head, each end fastened by exquisite gold and pearl butterflies, below them the long unplaited strands of pearls falling down beside her ears, mingling with the wavy tresses of her hair.
Two butterflies—one for him, one for her, joined by a bond that would intertwine them for the rest of their lives—and that was how it would be because she was here, willing to marry him, wanting to share the future with him, and she walked towards him, not one shadow of doubt dimming the happiness that shone from her and beamed straight into his heart, kick-starting it into a thunderous beat, a joyous drumming of love for this woman—his woman.
He held out his hand to her.
