"Enough for now," he murmured softly, pressing his forehead against hers, his breath warm and calming. "Rest… my love."
She closed her eyes, her chest rising and falling rapidly as her trembling gradually subsided under his soothing touch. Her heart thudded with quiet contentment as his arms wrapped around her securely, holding her close to his chest.
In his embrace, there was no fear, no past, no uncertainty, only a quiet eternity of love, devotion, and the promise of all their tomorrows.
Outside, the plane cut gracefully through the pale morning sky, carrying them home to a new beginning, wrapped in each other's warmth, the safest place on earth.
The golden sun broke through the clouds, bathing the jet in soft brilliance as it soared towards Beijing, towards the life awaiting them in the land that birthed them both… a life where his vows would echo in her soul, fresh and true, every single day.
