“You look gorgeous,” I say when she stops in front of me.

“Thank you.” She lifts her hands to smooth them down my lapels. “You look great yourself.”

I place my hands on her hips and lean in to kiss her. As I slide my tongue into her mouth, I move my palms to her ass. She moves her hands into my man bun. I know I’m going to have to fix it before we leave.

I don’t mind, I love when she runs her fingers through my hair. It’s why I haven’t cut it in years. I peck her lips twice before releasing her so I can give her the gift I have for her.

“Come here for a minute. I have something for you.”

I lead her over to the couch by the hand. I notice she has on the diamond necklace and earrings Gio gave her. They’re perfect for tonight.

She sits on the couch, and I take the seat next to her, reaching into my tux jacket for the jewelry box. Handing the box over, I watch her with bated breath.

“Oh wow, Jace. It’s gorgeous.” She holds her wrist out for me to fasten the diamond bracelet in place.

Removing it from the box, I place it on her wrist. As I bend my head over her wrist to lock it in place, she runs her other hand through my hair. Pulling a piece down to twirl around her finger. I look up once the bracelet is in place.

“Thank you.”

She leans in to kiss me. I place a hand on her waist and take over the kiss. I groan into her mouth. I have to force myself to pull away.

I look down at my watch. “We need to go. I don’t want to be late.”

“Where are we going?”

“It’s a surprise.”

“Can I guess?”

I roll my eyes. “Or you can get up and let’s go. Our limo is waiting.”

“Ugh, you hang with Gio too much.”

We make our way to the door. I open the closet for our coats, but only find mine.

“Where’s your fur?”

“I wasn’t going to wear it.”

“Why not?”

She shrugs. I take mine out and put it on. She looks me up and down with a smile at the corners of her lips.

“Okay, Jace. I see you. Damn. You’re fine as fuck, you know that?”

“Where’s your coat, Ny? We need to go,” I chuckle.

“Hold on. It’s in the room. I’ll be right back. This dude in here looking like a GQ Viking, trying to show me up,” she mutters as she rushes for the bedroom.

I’d be lying if I said I’m not super excited. I was surprised when Jace told me to pack an overnight bag, my jewelry, and my fur. Once we arrived at the hotel this morning, he sent me to the spa and this gown was waiting for me when I returned.

We had lunch at a restaurant a few blocks away. After he took me to a bookstore. This has been an amazing day.

I wonder what he’s up to next as we ride in the back of the limo. I look over at him and he looks a little nervous, but he’s so freaking handsome. The tux, the fur, his man bun. I don’t think I’ve seen him like this before. I know he gets dressed up for parties with Gio, but never like this.
