All my life I’ve known my path, knew what I wanted and how to conquer it. Then this woman came and ripped me open and showed me what I really am. The future is unclear, except that I have her, and that’s all I will ever need.

“I love you, Mr. Powers.” She sniffs. When I look down at her, her eyes are swollen from crying, her lips are puffy from my kisses, and all I can think is she’s never been more stunning.

“You are my forever,” I say, knowing for the first time in my life that I speak the truth.

Epilogue

JETT

I stand looking down at her and smile. She sits, hair up in a messy bun, wearing nothing but a black blindfold.

I dangle the strawberry on her lips as she tries to reach up and bite it.

“Pretty confident this is something you like, huh?” I bring it back, caressing the bottom of her lip with the tip of the berry.

“Jett, I can smell it.” She laughs and bites the tip. I can’t help but grin and lean down to steal a kiss while she chews.

“Don’t get cocky,” I murmur.

“I wouldn’t dream of it.”

She gasps when I bite the fleshy part of her bottom lip. Taking her hand, I guide it to my hard erection. She smiles, trying to slip her hand into my waistband to get a better grip.

“Greedy this morning.” I move away, hearing her huff. This is our last day in Spain. I got talked into coming back to the States to take a case. It will be eight months since I’ve stepped foot in a courtroom.

It’s time. As much as I want to never return to reality and just fuck Raven, sunbathe, and take siestas, at some point we do need to return. I either had to shut down my practice or go back and take this case. I’ve got Brody moving up to our place. He’s going to manage the building while Raven and I come and go. Which allows my men the opportunity to update his apartment. It’s the last one left to be renovated.

Raven and I turned the whole building green, complete with a communal vegetable garden on the roof.

Cher’s back in the States, so that will be good for Raven. I think she needs to think about college. Her mind is too brilliant to waste. But she seems content doing her environmental work, which I support. A happy Raven makes a happy Jett, simple as that.

I turn and open the refrigerator, grabbing some whipped cream and a bottle of champagne. When I open it, she squeals at the loud pop and squirms in her chair, her nipples hard, waiting for me to suck on them.
