When he got there, he saw Lily was waiting up for him, as she always did.

“Did you find him this time?” she asked, putting her book on the side table and rising from the chair where she’d been reading.

“I did.” Pride filled him when he set the money, a mixture of bills, coins and a bag of flake, on the table.

Lily came up behind him and helped him off with his coat, then hung it on one of the pegs behind the door.

“Thank you,” she whispered, her back still turned to him.

“Don’t thank me yet. All he had left was a little more than eighteen hundred dollars.”

Her gaze snapped to his. “Oh, God, that’s not enough. The note is due and I owe Al Swearengen three thousand dollars.” She held herself, arms wrapped around her waist.

Zach went to her and took her hands in his. “Let me give you the money.”

“No. I can’t do that.” She shook her head. “I refuse to take money from you or anyone.”

“Then let me loan you the money. What difference does it make if you owe me or him? It’s still a loan and you can make payments, as you can. You won’t have to worry about losing the store or becoming a prostitute for Swearengen. Better yet, let me be your business partner. A silent business partner. I’ll provide whatever capital you need for a small percentage of the net proceeds of the business. What do you say?” Please say yes, anything so I can stay close to you.

She stared at him for what seemed like forever.

“You would do that for me? You wouldn’t try to tell me how to run the business? You’d be a truly silent partner?”

“Truly. Not a word about how to run the business. Seems that you’re doing rather well as it is. You don’t need me coming in and messing with a good thing.”

She started to cry, covering her face with her hands.

He wrapped her in his arms, knowing she’d agreed to let him help her. “Don’t cry, honey. It’s alright.” She was wearing her nightgown and robe, the cotton soft beneath his fingers as he rubbed up and down her back in what he hoped was a soothing gesture.

She looked up, her pale blue eyes full of tears.

“Kiss me. Please, Zach, just kiss me.”

She didn’t need to ask twice. He lowered his head and took her soft lips with his. She tasted so good, like coffee and molasses cookies. He could taste her all night.

He tried to be gentle. But he needed her closer and clasped his arms around her, bringing her lush curves against him. His body responded immediately and his shaft became rock hard against her belly.

With reluctance, he broke the kiss. “Do you feel how much I want you? Marry me, Lily, so we can make love every night. So we can be together always. Marry me and put me out of my agony.”
