Boss’s Heir Demand (Work Wives to Billionaires’ Wives #2)

Epilogue

IT WAS HOT , and she was sweating, and Maude couldn’t wait any longer.

As soon as they reached the pool, she pulled off all her clothes, climbed onto the rocks under the waterfall and dived head first into the water.

It was cool and refreshing after the baking midsummer heat, and she gave a little internal sigh of pleasure as she touched the sandy bottom of the pool in greeting to the water spirits, before arrowing back to the surface.

Dominic had stopped by the edge of the pool and had taken off the backpack with Robin, their twelve-month-old, in it. He was sitting now on the grass, holding Robin while the little boy tried to grab the white stripe of his father’s hair in a chubby fist.

Ever since he’d been born, he’d been fascinated with it. He’d been fascinated with his father too, and Dominic had been equally smitten. Watching him with their son was one of Maude’s special joys.

There was joy, too, to be had in the projects that she and Dominic chose together to invest in. Eco projects and technology, mostly, because she’d decided that she didn’t want to save just Darkfell forest, she wanted to save the world too.

Since she’d already saved one disreputable playboy and turned him into a respectable family man, she didn’t think saving the world was entirely out of reach, and certainly not with him at her side.

After all, he’d tamed a wild forest nymph and turned her into a wife and mother, so fair was fair.

But that wasn’t all they were.

Sometimes, on warm nights, when the moon was full and the forest spirits walked, they’d go out into the woods and become forest spirits themselves, the god and goddess, wild and free and passionate, on a bed of bracken.

As Maude surfaced, Dominic waved at her and so did Robin.

Really, there was no end to the joy of her life, and soon enough it was going to get even more joyous.

Maude put a light hand to her stomach and smiled.

It would be a little girl, she knew it.

Dominic was going to be so happy.
