We eventually clean up and sit down to eat our dinner, and as soon as we’re finished, my husband keeps his promise and makes love to me until the sun comes up.
CHAPTER
TWENTY-ONE
Legend
It’s noon by the time I get to the shop. I’m working late tonight. A longtime client booked this date months ago. He needs to do later in the day because he works third shift. I don’t mind it.
Of course, at the time, I didn’t realize how much I’d enjoy going home to my wife. I smile when I think about how I had her bent over in the shower this morning before she left to meet Emerson for breakfast. We’ve gotten used to showering together, and even though she tried to sneak out of bed and let me sleep in, I joined her a few minutes later.
There will never be a time when my naked wife will be within reach that I won’t be right next to her. I’m addicted to her. I’m pussy whipped, heart whipped. I’m soul whipped, and any other kind of whipped you can think of, sign me up if it means life with Monroe.
If the guys could read my thoughts, I’d never hear the end of it. That’s not exactly true. Roman would have my back. He’s all the above for his wife too.
One day, when they all fall ass over heels in love, they’ll understand.
“All right, man, what’s with the cheesy smile?” Forrest asks.
I don’t even bother trying to school my features. “Just in a good mood.”
“I call bullshit. You’ve been extra smiley the last few months, but the last few weeks have been on another level. You’re like happy-go-lucky Legend on steroids.”
I laugh. “Just living the dream, brother.”
“This have anything to do with your wife?”
“It has everything to do with my wife.” I’ve not confessed to any of the guys that my marriage is real and permanent. I don’t know why. I guess I just wanted to stay in my happy love bubble with Monroe.
“What’s up?” Forrest asks.
“What? Can a man not be happily in love with his wife?” I ask.
“Whoa.” I turn to see Lachlan standing behind us. “You just dropped the L bomb.”
“I’m aware.”
“Mad! Rome!” Lachlan calls out for the other guys. I knew this was coming when they found out. Not that I care. We give each other shit on a daily basis. It’s our love language. At least, that’s what my wife calls it.
Maddox and Roman come strolling into the break room.
“How are you all not with a client right now?” I ask them.
Roman shrugs. “Just worked out that way. My next is in fifteen minutes.” He turns toward Lachlan. “What’s up?”
“Legend is in love.”
Roman smiles. “She know?”
“Yeah, she knows.”
“So, what’s that mean?” Forrest asks.
“It means I’m married to the love of my life.” I smile wide because damn if it doesn’t feel good to say that out loud.
“And the deal?” Maddox asks.
“The deal is that Monroe is my wife. She will stay that way until I take my last breath.” My tone gives them zero chances to doubt me and my love for my wife.
