I stare at her breasts before my gaze trails back to her beautiful face. “I love you, Carrie.”
“I love you, Rook,” she whispers before giving me with a lush, deep kiss.
CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE
Carrie
I glance at Rook. “We need to get there.”
He points at his phone. “I’m just sending Dalton a text. After it’s sent, I’m off the clock for the night.”
I look at my watch as he types out the text to my friend and his client. I met up with Dalton for a quick cup of coffee last week. The main subject of conversation was his move back to Manhattan and the fact that my sister is part of the legal team representing him. We’ll get together again when we can both carve some time out for it.
Once Rook pockets his phone, I grab his hand in mine. “Let’s go. Hurry!”
He keeps up with my every step. “I’m moving as fast as I can here, Carrie. How the hell are you running in those heels?”
I glance down at the four-inch black heels on my feet. They’re part of my typical work attire, even though today is far from typical. “I always run in heels.”
“Just another major accomplishment of the woman I love.”
He’s reminded me that he loves me multiple times every day for the past two weeks. It’s been that long since we shared that we loved one another.
The morning after that, we visited Abby and Declan and sort of filled them in on our love story. We didn’t confess that Rook was my first lover, but Rook made it very clear that we are each other’s forever loves.
As we slow to wait for a crossing light, Rook gathers me in his arms. “I can still taste you on my lips.”
I push up to my tiptoes to kiss him. “I can still taste you on mine.”
“Mutual oral in my office is the best way to end the workday,” he whispers.
Glancing to see if the light has changed, I laugh. “I only came to your office to get you to finish up your work so you can watch Tel propose to Cam. I had no idea you were going to bend me over your desk, slide my panties off, and eat me.”
“I’m hard,” he quips. “Again.”
“You just came down my throat,” I remind him. “That was what…twenty or twenty-five minutes ago.”
“I can go again,” he teases. “A nice hard fuck in the lab seems like the perfect way to close out the day.”
As we start to cross the street, I look up at him. “There’s going to be a proposal taking place in the lab. You nailing me against the long counter will be a distraction that Tel will not appreciate.”
Scooping my hand back into his, Rook leads me up Fifth Avenue toward Matiz’s building. “Tel called me last night, and we decided to move the proposal to the roof at sunset.”
I look up at the still sunny sky. “Why are we rushing then?”
“Something about me fucking you in the lab.” He shrugs with a smirk on his face. “Tel’s out buying champagne right now, so the place is all ours.”
I laugh aloud. “We’ll save the hard fuck for when we got back to your place tonight. I want this evening to be all about Tel and Cam.”
“I know.” He smiles.
As we reach the doors that lead into the lobby of Matiz’s building, I look up at him, taking in every feature of his brutally handsome face. “We’re going to see him propose, Rook. It’s really happening.”
“Do you think he’ll stick to the script?” he asks me.
I shrug. “Maybe? All I do know is that he loves Cam with everything he has, and if he lets his heart do the talking, it’ll be a perfect proposal.”
Soft white lights line the roof of the building where I’ve built a career and where I met my best friend.
