“Never. Not once,” he says. His tone is matter-of-fact, and Grey doesn’t miss a beat. “I knew in my heart the entire time that you are the love of my life and the only person I want to call my wife. I know you don’t believe me right now, and that’s my own damn fault, but I’d marry you today if you’d say yes. I get that you don’t trust me enough yet, but I’m going to earn every ounce of it back because I’ll never let you go again. I promise you, as long as you’ll have me, I am going to marry you one day, Ryan Walker, and your last name is going to be Beckett.”
