“I know I haven’t done the best job with your heart, Jewel, and you don’t trust me. But I swear I only have the best intentions with you. It messed with me knowing things out of my control have kept us apart. I need you to know that I am doing my best to make it all disappear.

“I love you so much, Phoenix Diamond McClain; you are the woman for me. I have never wanted any person the way I want you. There should be no doubt about my feelings for you; I will do right by you. I promise to protect your heart and never lie to you again. It killed me not to tell you the truth, but I wanted you to have the relationship you wanted with your mother, and I thought I was doing the right thing. Now I know that was wrong; you will be the mother to my kids if we decide to go that way. This is us, baby, the quiet and the storm,

I have you, which is enough for me; I’m holding you this close for the rest of my life, right here in my heart.” I didn’t bother to wipe the tears that fell on his chest because it was pointless; more would fall.
