"More than happy," she whispered back, turning in his arms to look up into his eyes. "We built something real, Nicolás. Out of the chaos, out of the pain... we built something unbreakable."

Nicolás smiled, his gray eyes shining with absolute devotion. He leaned down and kissed her—a deep, tender promise of all the tomorrows they would share together.
