Page 67 of Worth Loving You

Exhausted, I scratched at the back of my head, groaning. The trip to San Francisco had been tedious and strenuous. The whole deal had almost fallen through, but I managed to save the contract, and everything was back on schedule.

“How’s things coming along with Wanderlust?”

“Good. No setbacks. Should open on time.”

“The renovations almost done?”

“Yup.”

“Good. She needs something to focus on when I’m not around. Opening this business will be good for her.”

“And you’re okay with her touching other men?”

Snorting, I patted him on the side of his bicep. “Like I have anything to worry about. That woman adores me.”

“I’m just saying, that’s how you met, and look what happened.”

I chuckled and wagged my finger. “I know what you’re trying to do, and you can stop right there. You don’t have to like her, but you have to accept and respect her because I’m marrying that woman one day, and soon. A lot sooner than she thinks.”

Tugging at the waist of my trousers, I went to the living room and picked up the jacket to my suit, checking my cellphone.

“It’s been six months, Wyatt. You need to get over the way she looks and get to know her. You’ll be pleasantly surprised.”

Not seeing the expected text, I frowned. Cursing, I shut off the screen and pushed it back into the pocket to give him my full attention. Flashing a bright smile, I shrugged my arms out and chuckled, “I’m madly in love with the woman. I mean, I have never felt this way about any woman, ever. Fucking hell, I’ve even broken up with half my side chicks, just so I could spend more time with her.”

“You break up with some, but then take on Jennifer.”

I chortled and rolled a shoulder. “She’s right there, man. It’s too easy. I get my side ass and my woman is right in the next room. It’s perfect.”

“You really think Jennifer will keep her mouth shut?”

“She has so far.” Tipping my head, I peered down my nose and lifted a brow. “And if she talks, she dies.”

“I think it’s too risky, boss.”

“What do you care? You don’t even like Chazzy, now you’re concerned I’m going to get caught with her roommate? It’s been four months, everything is fine.”

“If you say so. Just let me know what you want me to do when everything blows up.”

Laughing, I patted his bicep again and jutted my chin. “I’m off to bed. See you later today.”

“Yup.”

Going to the master suite, I carefully opened the door and eased inside. My heart swelled at the mere sight of her curled up under the thick blanket, her hair spread out over the pillow.

Tossing my jacket on the dresser, I quietly closed the door and shed my clothes across the room. I lifted the blanket and crawled onto the mattress behind her, meshing my body to hers with a husky groan.

I would never get tired of feeling these curves pressed to mine. This was the woman for me, the love of my life. She would take my name, bear me children, and stand by my side the rest of my life. I was so deeply in love with her, it was almost comical.

My arms slid around, pulling her as close to me as possible. Nuzzling her hair, I sighed, feeling complete with her in my embrace.

She moaned, stirring. “Milo?”

“Yeah, baby girl, I’m home.”

“Hm.” She wiggled against me, and my cock sprung to life. When it came to Chastity Lou Monroe, there was no such thing as too much. I would always get hard, eager to be inside her.

Hiking the hem of her nightgown, I tucked my fingers between her thighs, rubbing at her pussy.
