“I love what Ido.” Her hands went around his neck. “My pregnancy isgoing great now and I promise I’ll take it easy.”
“Marry me. Wecould have a private ceremony at the restaurant with just a fewpeople. Then we go somewhere for our honeymoon. Where would you liketo go?”
“I can’tthink-“ He was tracing her bottom lip with the tip of histongue. His erection was sliding between her thighs and making herwet again.
“Marry me.”
“Yes.”She gasped, fingers digging into his shoulders.
“Next week.”
“It’s -that’s not possible-“ Her back arched as he reachedbetween them and guided himself into her.
“Anything’spossible. We could hire a wedding planner. I need you.” Hegrunted and bowed his back as her pussy wrapped around him like aglove. “Desperately. I need you to need me too.”
“I do.”
“Good.”He drew in a breath, bending his head to kiss her.
For the next fewhours, they were lost in a passion that threatened to overwhelm them.

“Food.”She was curled into his arms, his arms wrapped possessively aroundher body. “I think we’ve worn each other out and you mustbe starving. It’s dark out.”
“That’sbecause it’s raining.” She didn’t want to move. Shewas buzzing and so sexually satisfied she feared she would go into acoma. “Stay.” She had one foot trapped between his legsand her head resting on his chest. He was doing something to her backthat was heightening her senses.
“Sweetheart,you must be starving.” He protested. It felt strange. He wasn’taccustomed to cuddling or making love to a woman. “You’reeating for two.”
“The soup yougave me earlier was enough.” She lifted her head to look athim. “You must be starving.”
“Somewhat.”He smiled at her. “I had other things on my mind.”
“I could whipus something up.”
“No.” Hetold her firmly. “Everything’s already prepared, I justhave to pop it into the microwave and heat it up. More soup?”
She wrinkled hernose. “It seems like that’s all I have been eating sinceI’ve been pregnant. What else is there?”
“Vegetablelasagna and a container of beef stew.”
“The lasagna.”She told him.
“Shall we go ondown?”
“Yes. Tell meagain.” She whispered.
“What do youwant to hear?”
“That you loveme. I still can’t believe it.”
“Believe this.”Bringing her face to his, he kissed her with such tenderness he hadher drowning. His lips moved over hers with such slow thoroughnessshe felt the heat spreading throughout her body and warming herheart.
Ending the kiss, hestared at her with fire shooting from his dark eyes. “I adoreyou.’ He told her thickly. “You are the beginning and endof everything for me. I’ll love you until the day I die.”He kissed the tears away and held her tight against him as she sobbedhappily.
