“Squeeze tight, baby.” He thrust into the space between my legs. “I’m nearly there.”
And he was. I felt his cock spasm as he climaxed with a groan. He kissed me briefly, sat back on his knees, removed the condom, tied it off and flung it onto the nightstand. He lay back on the bed and pulled me into his arms.
“I love you, Hayley. I fucking love you so much…”
Tears of happiness welled up and spilt from my eyes. “You do?”
“Yep. I fell for you the moment I realized I couldn’t live without you.” He turned and stroked the liquid from my cheeks. “I hope you feel the same way about me?”
I lifted my hand to the side of his face. “Of course, I do. I love you.” My heart freaking hammered. “I fell for you when you managed to get sober and I got to know the real Pierce.”
His arms tightened around me. “How long have we known each other?”
I thought for a moment. “More than two years. Remember I replaced the girl who left before the European leg of your world tour?”
“So, no one would think I’m being hasty if I asked you to marry me.” His eyes burned into mine. “Will you do me the honor of becoming my wife?”
Shock wheeled through me. “But…but I’m not cured yet. I might never be cured.”
“Doesn’t matter. We had hot sex tonight, didn’t we? Much as I’d like to fuck you with my cock—and I never thought I’d be saying this—penetrative sex isn’t the be all and end all.”
It was like a great weight had been lifted from my shoulders. He loved me as I was, hang-ups and all. I kissed him on the lips and said, “I’d love to marry you.”
“We can go shopping for a ring tomorrow, if you like?”
“Was that the surprise you’ve been keeping secret from me?” I just had to ask.
He smiled. “That’s for me to know and for you to find out…”
“Oh, okay.” I chewed at my lip. “Will I find out soon?”
“First thing tomorrow,” he smirked.Chapter 20PierceHayley downloaded the short e-book I’d read and devoured it in one go while we ate breakfast the following morning. “I’d given up searching for info,” she said, pouring us both a cup of coffee. “It’s so cool you found this.”
I ran my hands through my hair, flipping it back from my face. “Not the only thing I found…”
“You mean my surprise?” Her golden irises glowed.
“Got it in one.”
Her fiery tresses was in a braid again, but I let it pass. She’d need it tied back for what I had planned. I picked up my shades and cellphone, then sent a message to Joe to meet us in the lobby. I grabbed Hayley’s hand and pulled her to her feet. “C’mon. Time for the fun to begin…”
Downstairs, Joe stepped in front of us and led the way to the underground parking lot. “These what you wanted, boss?” he indicated toward three single speed bikes.
Hayley’s eyebrows shot up and she gave a squeal of excitement. “Oh, wow!” Without preamble, she flung her arms around me. “I love your surprise.” Her smile went straight to my heart. “I love YOU.”
“Right back at ya, sweetheart.” A warm fuzziness radiated through me. “Wanna go for a ride?”
“Sure do.” She went to the nearest bike and started adjusting the seat. “Where’d you get them?”
“Joe found a rental place” I glanced at him. “Thanks, mate.”
He grinned. “The security guard will let us out when we’re ready.”
The three of us put on the helmets hanging from our bicycle handles. Joe was coming with us, of course, and would lead the way having gotten the route from the hotel concierge. The doors to the garage cranked open and hot, humid air covered us like a wet blanket as we cycled up the ramp. Outside, it was even hotter. Sweat prickled my scalp and trickled down the back of my neck.
We headed south…passing swaying palm trees by the waterfront and futurist sculpture garden boasting sci-fi trees looking like they’d come straight from the movie Avatar. After cycling past massive greenhouses and more gardens, we arrived at a narrow dam. “It’s a barrage to block seawater from flowing into the marina and flooding low lying areas of Singapore,” Joe informed us. We took selfies but kept our shades and helmets on to prevent the public recognizing us. I stared across the bay toward the Singapore Flyer, a giant Ferris wheel that reminded me of the London Eye.
The view from the top must be breathtaking.
There were more tropical gardens on the other side of the marina, and we cycled through them before heading back the way we’d come. There’d been a secret motive for me bringing Hayley out here. I’d been scouting for a place to get down on my knees and propose to her formally, and now I thought I’d found the perfect spot. All we needed to do first was cool off in the pool before shopping for a ring.
