“My brother,” Russell muttered. “You don’t need to pay me for killing—”

“Lad.” Angus squeezed his shoulder. “Ye worked hard. Ye earned the money. Take it.”

Russell took a deep breath and exhaled. “All right.”

“And ye’re still working for me.” Angus gave him a pointed look. “From now on, I expect reports.”

“Yes, sir.” Russell saluted.

Angus grinned and slapped him on the back. “Off ye go, lad. Yer bride is waiting.”

“Actually, I need to find out who bought Jia’s bracelets so I can buy them back,” Russell said.

Shanna laughed. “I can help you with that.” She handed the dragon baby back to Angus and removed a gift box from her large handbag. “This is your wedding present from Roman and me.”

Russell opened it and discovered Jia’s bracelets inside. “Y-you’re giving them back?”

“I never intended to keep them. They belong to Jia.”

Then it was Roman and Shanna who had helped finance the start of his ranch. “Thank you. I don’t know how I ever got such good friends.”

Shanna gave him a hug. “Enjoy your life with Jia.”

“I will.” He rushed back to his bride and slipped the bracelets onto her wrists. Her eyes glistened with tears, and he knew with a surge of joy that he’d scored big time.

“How did you get them so quickly?” Jia asked.

“Shanna gave them to us as a wedding present.”

Jia blinked away some tears. “We are truly blessed with our friends.”

“I know.” He wiped away a tear as it rolled down her face. “And I’m blessed to have found you. We’ll have a good life. Although I can’t promise that I’ll always agree with you.”

She smiled. “That just means you’ll occasionally be wrong.”

He snorted. “But I do believe we will have a long and happy life. And I will always love you.”

“That’s my cowboy.”

He held her tight. “My princess.”
