  “I really don’t know how I should feel about this,” Milo said out of the blue as he looked at his computer later in the day. Paige was in the room, but she wasn’t working with him at the moment. She was keeping herself busy but also keeping an eye on him. He had quite the day already.“You should be happy but yet still a little leery of everything.” She said as she looked out the window. Her response was simple and straightforward. It was how she handled everything, including all of this, with him.“And you know this how?” he asked with a chuckle.“It is how I feel with everything that has happened to us.” She said as she turned around as she looked into his face as she spoke.“You don’t think that you should be happy?” he asked as he stood up and walked over to her. He looked down into her blue eyes and got lost for a moment in them. He was wondering

 The pair drove in silence, and soon they were passing the house they were buying in the dim light of day. It was glowing there in the trees like a beacon that they would call home by the end of the week. He smiled as she sighed and pressed her face to the glass to look at it more as they drove past it. It was going to be their home.“Family dinner will be easy to get to.” He said with a chuckle.“For you.” She said with a laugh. “My family won’t be coming to dinner or us going over there too often.”“And why is that?” he asked.“Well, my family is slightly disconnected. The main part is I don’t want them thinking because I am with you, that means they can start asking you for things.” Paige said with a sigh.“And that means?” he asked.“Though I love my siblings very much, they have the worst ability to manage things and often find themsel

  “Excuse me?” Paige asked as she looked at the older woman who was smiling at her. Paige was sure that she had heard the older woman wrong. Everything in her told her that she did. There was no way this woman just said that to her, not to Milo.“I had to charge you something, but a private sale is much easier to handle,” Missy said as she put the dollar in her pocket. “You see, the house is mine to do with as I please. I wanted a family to move in. I offered the house first to my children, but they all have the ones they wanted. I had no idea Milo was looking for one, or I would have found a way to offer it to him as well. I decided though to sell it to you, my dear. A long-standing tradition in my family is to make sure the women have something to hold on too not the men. My mother gave me the house when I got married though she still lived in it for some time. She wanted to make sure that I had something that I could

 Milo and Paige drove up the street to the house that stood there in the trees. She looked at it and knew this was hers. It was the most surreal feeling in the world to her knowing everything that happened in the past two days. She began to laugh. There was no stopping the laughter either.“What?” Milo asked as he looked at her as she got out of the car and looked at everything around her. This place was going to be their place together. A part of who they were, and it would allow them to grow together as well.“This.” She said as she looked at him. “All of this happened to me because I had no clothes to wear to work yesterday.”“Well, not really.” He said, chuckling. He had often thought the moment she walked into his office, everything in his life would change. He had a plan right from the start. Simple steps that would allow him to reach this goal with her. Everything went to hell as soon as the but

Epilogue
 A year had filled the castle house with many different things as Milo drove up to it from his long day at the office. His brothers with Maryanne’s help had pushed for him to take his rightful place in the company as a VP by their side. He had enjoyed getting to know them and their families over the past year. His father had also begun to acknowledge him for what and who he was as well along with Missy. However, coming home to Paige was the best part of every day.She had stopped working a few months before. She had been having some issues with getting around easily. Missy had been the one who finally said enough was enough and basically made her leave her position at the company. She had a new job now that was much more important than being his assistant. He smiled as he walked in the door to find her asleep on the couch near the front of the house with the small bundle on her chest. He walked over and lifted the small thing off of her as she woke up and l
