“I need you so fucking bad,” she urges, standing then forcing me up to tug my jeans and boxers down. Once she tosses them aside, I move her silk panties to the side and coat my fingers through her wetness. Popping them in my mouth, I have a taste.

“Mmm…so sweet. Come ride me.” I reposition myself against the cushions as she climbs back on top of me.

“Take all of me, baby,” I say, tracing circles on her clit as she slides down on my cock. Reaching behind her, I undo her bra and free her perky tits. I greedily snag one of her nipples as she grinds against me fast and hard.

“Shit,” she whispers, her head whipping back on her shoulders. Her moans are so loud, I wouldn’t be surprised if the guests at the B&B could hear her panting out my name.

“Knox, Knox, Knox.”

“Yes, keep going. Just like that,” I tell her.

“Tell me how much I mean to you.” She kisses me, slowing our pace.

I grab her hips and stop her from moving, then cup her face in my hands.

“You mean the world to me, sweetheart. I love you with every part of my being. I love you so fucking much,” I admit, every word giving her the power to destroy me if she wanted.

There’s so much intensity behind her kiss that I feel like I’m crumbling around her.

“I love you too, more than you’ll ever know.” We’re like a symphony of music, moving together in perfect harmony, and I know what we have is the real deal.

“Let’s go to the bedroom,” I suggest, then lead her there.

She lies down, and I hover above her, meeting her eyes as I fill her with my cock.

“I can’t get enough of you, baby.”

“I hope you never do,” she says between pants as she unravels beneath me.

“I won’t,” I promise.

Being with her like this feels different, and I realize it’s because we’re head over heels in love with each other. It’s not only our physical connection but an emotional one too. I plan to do whatever it takes to make this woman happy for the rest of our lives.

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

HADLEIGH

SIX MONTHS LATER

“Ya ready?” Knox asks when the plane speeds down the runway. All I know is we’re heading to Hawaii to swim with the dolphins. Apparently, he vacationed there when he was a kid and always wanted to go back, so after six months of planning, we’re finally going.
