Page 30 of 21 Week Hiatus

With a snigger I trace my finger over his chiseled chest and lick my lips sensually. “Well, we don’t want that.” I purr, sitting up and shifting so I can straddle him. “I happen to be very fond of your dick, Mr. Peirce.”

“And I happen to be extremely fond of you, Miss West,” Logan affirms, wrapping his arms around me and gazing lovingly into my eyes. “Like Toby said before, you truly are the best thing to ever happen to me, Savi.” My cheeks flush crimson at his words and I feel my heart start to flutter.

“Stop that.” I whine coyly and Logan chortles, moving his hands down to my ass and giving it a firm squeeze.

“I’ll do no such thing. I want to spend what’s left of my life making a hot mess of you and watching you blush as beautifully as you are right now.” His words make my heart swell and glow with happiness.

Raising a brow I smirk sultrily, “Careful there, Mr. Peirce a girl could mistake that for a proposal.” I tsk at him and when he only stares back at me, my smile falters. I search his gaze and my stomach does a nervous somersault. “Logan?”

“What if it is?” His words hang in the air, rendering me momentarily stunned and speechless.

Wait. Wait. Hold on a damn minute.

Is he asking me tomarry himright now?

“Is it?” I ask warily.

Logan chuckles while I stare at him wide-eyed. “Maybe.”

He’s teasing me.

“Maybe?” Shaking my head, I smack his arm playfully with a chuckle. “Oh, you’re jesting.” I huff with a playful roll of my eyes as I go to move off him. “Don’t tease me like that, you jerk.”

Logan's strong arms wrap around me, pulling me in until our foreheads are touching. The heat of his body seeps into mine, igniting a fire that spreads through my veins. “Whoa, come back here, Wildfire.” He whispers, his voice low and husky as he pulls me back to him and smiles dashingly while his long fingers curl at the nape of my neck. “You… are making me want to break all of my rules and marry you.”

My head snaps back and I fix him with a deadpan look. “Really?” I drawl incredulously. “The man who swore off marriage and broke up with me because of it is now all of a sudden considering it?”

Logan heaves a sigh and drags his tongue over his lower lip, a contemplative look on his gorgeous face. “I know, it’s just as much a surprise to me as it is you, Savi, but lately it’s all I’ve been finding myself thinking about.”

Oh God, someone pinch me or slap me. Is this really happening. I thought he was joking but judging by the look on his face he’s actually serious. “You make me so incredibly happy, Wildfire,” he states, lifting his head to brush a kiss on my jaw. “Happier than I can ever remember being in my life and I have never wanted to belong to someone as desperately as I do you.”

His heartfelt declaration sends warmth spreading throughout my body, and I can feel tears prickling at the corners of my eyes. This moment with Logan is all I've ever wanted. I never really needed a proposal or a ring, but just the possibility of a future, to belong to him solely. “Logan.” Lifting my hands I cup his face and smile all the while holding back the tears I can feel coming. “You are mine, marriage or not you will always be mine and I will always be yours. But if you’re serious and asking me to marry you right now while I’m covered in both yours and your friend’s come then my answer is yes.” I add with a laugh and Logan chuckles.

“Yes?”

I nod and press my lips to his. “Yes.” I murmur between kisses. “Marry me, marry the fucking shit out of me.”

“Just try and stop me.” I squeal when Logan flips me over onto my back and kisses me passionately. “Come on, baby, let’s go and take a shower so I can spend the night making you dirty all over again.”

“You are incorrigible, Mr. Peirce.”

“And don’t you forget it, Miss West.”

It's amazing how a seemingly ‘nothing’ moment between two strangers can turn into something so special.

Love truly does have a way of sneaking up on you, even in the most unexpected and unlikely circumstances.

And so, as the fairy tale goes.

…theybangedhappily ever after.

The End…for now.
