Constantine's Defiant Mistress
Page 16
In fact, this lack of enthusiasm for fine jewels had proved to be the only problem in the blissfully problem-free time leading up to their wedding.
‘It is traditional for the groom to give his beautiful bride a gift,’ he murmured, pulling her into his arms and drifting his lips against hers. ‘But—since diamonds don’t impress you—what on earth can I give you as a wedding present that is equally precious, agape mou?’

Constantine’s love.
