Joshua snorted a laugh, then shook his head.

“Uh, no. That’s not what this is. It’s something else entirely.”

He stood up, and I watched as he picked up the flowers. Then, he rounded the table to come to my side. I wasn’t sure what was going on, but then he went down on one knee, presenting me with the flowers, and I gasped.

“Joshua,” I whispered, gently taking the flowers.

He smiled. “I did tell you the only surprise waiting for us was when,” he said gently, reaching inside his jacket pocket. “I was nervous when I planned this whole thing, so I wanted you to be surprised.

I pressed a hand to my mouth as I felt my eyes sting. I stayed silent, waiting. Out of his pocket, he pulled a small black box that he opened and held out to me.

“Alessandra,” he started, his voice clear. “I love you, and our son, more than anything else in this world. Would you do me the honor of marrying me?”

I didn’t even have to stop to think. I nodded quickly, and it took a few seconds before I could find my voice to give a verbal reply.

“Yes. Yes, Joshua, a thousand times, yes!”

We reached for each other at the same time, meeting in the middle in a wet, ferocious kiss that left us breathless in seconds. Then Joshua rose and tugged me up with him.

“Come home with me, Alessandra,” he whispered.

I let out a happy laugh. “How many times do yo

u want to hear me say yes tonight?”

He grinned. “As many times as possible!”

We rushed out of the restaurant. I hadn't seen him pay, but I didn’t doubt he’d thought ahead. It was only a fleeting thought that disappeared the moment we were out of the building. Joshua had parked the car close, and we practically jumped inside, then he drove us back to his apartment building. The whole time, I had to keep my hands clasped in my lap so I wouldn’t try to reach for him.

I have no idea how we both managed it, but somehow we did. When we stopped at his building, we hurried inside, then to the elevator. We stayed apart, up until we made it to the penthouse, and he unlocked the door.

Then, we practically attacked each other.

Hands met bodies and lips crashed together in a rough kiss. Joshua kicked the door closed then backed me into it, his hands tight on my waist. He rocked his hips against me, and I could feel his erection pressing against me.

“Somebody’s eager,” I said, breathless when we broke off the kiss.

“I’ve wanted to rip that dress off you since I saw you walk out of your house in it,” was his reply.

We went to each other’s clothes. I shoved his coat off his shoulders, then undid his tie and shirt buttons to feel his chest, before finally undoing his belt and fly. He had it way more comfortable. All he had to do was destroy the zip in the back and tug it low enough to free my breasts, then raise the bottom of my skirt and spread my legs apart with his knee. One of his hands fondled my breasts, while the other teased at my sex between my thighs. Our mouths touched, then parted, then touched without too long breaks in between.

Then, Joshua wrapped a hand around one of my thighs and lifted my leg around his hip. I was leaning entirely against the door, with his body pressing against me helping to keep me up. I felt the blunt head of his cock tease at my sex, pressing against my clit, before lowering to tease at my entrance.

“In me,” I demanded, digging my nails into his shoulder.

He did as I wanted. I let out a sigh, stilling momentarily as I felt him slide inside me.

“Joshua,” I gasped. “Yes!”

He growled in his throat, and he moved.

I let out a sharp cry when, with a thrust of his hips, his cock slid in and out of me, causing fantastic friction that made my toes curl. I wrapped my arms around him, holding on tightly as he fucked me against the door, moans, and cries spilling out of me as I tried to move in time with his movements. I could feel the pleasure build and build, and just when I thought I would shake apart, I came, with Joshua right behind me.

We clung to each other, bodies rocking slowly through our orgasms, until we went still, with the both of us slumped against the door.

Then, Joshua pecked a kiss on my forehead and pulled away. My legs trembled so hard I wondered if I could stay on my feet, his hold on my waist keeping me on my feet.

“Do you want to continue this in the bedroom?” he asked.
