Adam's Bride (19 page)

The buggy bumped beneath them, but she was only aware of the joy in her heart. So much had happened since the day he’d rescued her from the rabid dog. She was amazed that God had brought them this far. And now they had the rest of their lives to enjoy together.

Adam wrapped his arm around her and pulled her close as they followed the dirt path. “There’s something I forgot to ask Mrs. Gorski,” Adam said.

“What’s that?”

“Am I allowed to kiss the bride on the way to the church?”

“I don’t know. I suppose if you wanted to badly enough.”

“I do.”

Lidia’s heart raced in anticipation. “Then so be it.”

Adam leaned forward and brushed her lips with promises of what was yet to come. Floods of joy bubbled inside her. She pulled away briefly and looked into his eyes, knowing that she truly had found love in this New World.
