"You did an incredible job with this party, Mr. Calhoun. I'll have to make sure you're properly 'rewarded' later."
Danny arches an eyebrow, leaning in so close his lips brush her ear. "Oh? And how exactly does Miss Dennis plan to reward me? I'm looking forward to it."
His warm breath against her skin, carrying his intoxicating, woodsy scent, makes her cheeks flush. She gives him a playful shove, but he catches her hand, interlacing their fingers. They share a smiling glance, no more words needed as the deep affection between them flows freely.
Not far away, Alec holds up his phone and subtly snaps a picture of the moment, immediately sending it to 'The Dennis Family Circle' group chat. Look at this! My future brother-in-law and our sister are flaunting their romance again!
Grandma Eleanor is the first to reply, sending a "heartwarmed" sticker. Aunt Kellen follows up quickly with a flurry of heart emojis to express her excitement.
Originally, the group chat only consisted of the three brothers and Deanna. Charles used to be in it too, though he will never reply again. Later, Kellen asked to join, and with Eleanor added as well, it became a lively five-person group.
