He gazes down at me, his finger tipping my chin up, “I love you, Bubblegum. I love your kind, selfless heart, and I can’t fucking wait to marry you and make you my wife.”
I giggle, “Well, you’d have toask meto marry you in order to actually marry me, Romeo.”
“I know.” He smirks. “And as soon as you graduate, and I whisk you away to wherever your pretty little heart desires? Then I’ll ask you to marry me, and it’ll be the proposal of a lifetime.”
That was something we agreed on when we started talking about me moving in. That I’d finish school, get my degree, and be on the path to my career dreams before we considered marriage.
“I’m going to be the hottest wife,” I quip, raising my eyebrows and tossing him a sultry grin. “I can’t wait to marry you one day, Hudson Rome. You make me fall more in love with you every single day.”
His gaze softens, and he leans forward to capture my lips in a sweet, tender kiss that has my pink painted toes curling against his sweatpant clad legs. “Then you know exactly the way I feel about you, Bubblegum. You are the best thing that's ever happened to me. My purpose. You and Wren? You’re my family, and I’ll never stop loving and protecting you.”
My heart tugs.
This man.
This perfect man who stole my heart from the very first night and never gave it back.
The one who makes me feel beautiful, even on my worst days. The one who is patient and gentle when I need him to be. And the man who doesn’t hold back or treat me like I’m breakable when I needmore.
It turns out thatmorewith Hudson Rome is everything I never knew I needed, and when I stopped running and allowed him to love me?
I found a once in a lifetime kind of love that will never fade. All because I finally listened to my heart.
“You’re shivering baby, let’s go inside. I think you need a long…. hot…. bath,” he murmurs into my hair, pulling my earlobe between his teeth causing me to shiver for averydifferent reason.
“Mmm…. say less, Romeo. Say less.”
