Sarah was overcome with apprehension before finally giving in to the idea of selling her breed stock to Uncle Jeremiah. It helped that he assured her he’d give her a hand should she ever decide to get back into ranching. But her decision to let go of that life and cling tight to the life God was offering her was such a liberating experience.
After all, it was God who divinely orchestrated every single event that brought Frederick and her together. And it was God who had been her refuge and her strong tower during one of the darkest days in Texas history. She was finished relying on her own strength in the storms of life. From now on she would put all her trust in Him—the Master of the Sea.
Rex’s tail wagged, thumping on the porch boards.
She smiled, shaking her head at the silly dog. “Is he coming, Rex?”
He wagged harder. His bushy tail sounded like a straw broom hitting the porch.
“Don’t worry, boy. He’ll be home soon.”
A glance down the sidewalk confirmed what Rex already knew. Sarah stood, and Rex jumped up. He barked and danced with excitement. The love of both their lives had arrived. How handsome he looked in his suit and tie, holding his overstuffed satchel by his side.
He winked at his mate. “Hello, Rex! Are you my good boy?” Frederick ruffled the dog’s ears as he passed by. He dropped the satchel on a chair and pulled off his hat as he approached her.
Sarah adored how, even though she felt big as a cow, he still looked at her as if she were a delicious bowl of strawberry ice cream. Frederick leaned in, grasping her face in his palms and passionately kissed her. His kisses would forever cause her temperature to rise.
“How is my little cowgirl today?”
Sarah blushed and fluttered her eyelashes. “I’m not a cowgirl. I’m the esteemed wife of a big city attorney.”
Frederick smiled before bowing to her. “Why yes you are, my lady. And how is our little charge doing?”
She took his hand and placed it on her tight belly. “Just like you, perfect in every way.”
Frederick took her hand in his and led her down the stairs to complete their evening routine. Taking Rex’s leash, he offered his arm to her. “Madam?”
Sarah hooked arms with him. “Why, thank you, sir.”
Pausing before beginning their walk, Frederick turned to look at his bride. “Mrs. Chessher, I understand you’re not a cowgirl, but would you do me the honor of walking off into the sunset with me?”
Sarah looked up into her husband’s big, emerald eyes. “Why, yes, I will, Mr. Chessher. Today and every day for as long as we both shall live.”
