Two Can Play (Celeste and Dominic) novel Chapter 598

"Don't worry. It's just the two of us. I rented the whole beach."

I turned to ask him what all this was, and my voice died in my throat. He was on his knees. In his hand, a ring, a band of silver set with diamonds that caught the lantern light and threw it back in a hundred cold, brilliant points, a stone so clear it looked like frozen water, worth more than I could name. The first ring still sat in my bag. And here he was, on his knees in the sand, offering me another.

He said nothing. He just knelt there, looking up at me. And then the sky exploded. I spun around. Fireworks bloomed over the water, one after another, and then the words formed in the dark, burning bright across the heavens.

Will you marry me?

My hands flew to my mouth. And from somewhere deep in my chest, a memory surfaced, years old, sharp as glass.

The lab, in college, at night. Celeste and Seraphine and me, an overnight project due the next morning, coffee cold in our cups, talking about everything except our work. And the conversation had drifted, as it always did with Seraphine, to proposals.

Seraphine had leaned back in her chair, chin lifted. "When I find the one and he's ready to propose, I want the most expensive aircraft in the world. I want to be decked in luxury, my billionaire fiance on his knees before me, the crème de la crème of society watching, and the whole thing filmed and shown live all over the world."

Celeste had laughed. "Wishful thinking, Sera."
