“Peyton,” he whispered. Taking my face in his hands, he lowered his lips to mine and stayed there, breathing me in with the gentlest of touches.
I closed my eyes and smiled. “Yes?”
When he pulled back, he caressed my cheeks with his thumbs and tenderly pushed inside me until he was all the way in. “There’s something I want, and I’m hoping you’ll say yes,” he said, groaning as he slid in and out of my body.
“Tell me,” I replied breathlessly, opening my eyes.
Even though the room was dim, with the soft lights of the hallway shining in, I could see the sheen of tears misting his eyes. “Being able to look into your eyes and tell you I love you every day is something I look forward to the most. The same thing goes for our twins. I’m going to do everything I can to make sure you’re all happy.”
Tears started to stream down my face, but I chuckled through them. “And I plan to do the same with you.”
His lips closed over mine. “I want you to marry me, Peyton.”
The breath caught in my lungs. I’d heard the words, but it almost seemed like I imagined it. “What?” I asked, hoping he’d say them again.
Ethan kissed me again, his hands so gentle as he touched my face. “I want you to marry me. I know we haven’t been together long, but I can’t see the rest of my life without you in it. And I’m not asking you because you’re pregnant; I’m asking because I love you. I want us to build a life together. So, please say—”
“Yes,” I breathed, cutting him off. He smiled and more tears fell down my face. “Yes, I’ll marry you. I would’ve said yes even if we weren’t pregnant.”
Ethan claimed me again with his lips, his body moving with mine as he made love to me. “I love you so fucking much.”
“I love you too.”
There was no rushing with our lovemaking. It wasn’t the usual heated and wild sex we’d been having; it was something different . . . something I felt all the way down to my soul. This was what love felt like, and it was beautiful. It was what I’d always imagined true love would be.
Ethan pressed his lips to mine and slowly caressed my tongue with his, thrusting deep and slow. His torturous pace only heightened my desire, so I grabbed tightly onto his ass and locked my legs around his waist, pulling him into me.
Picking up his pace, Ethan moaned and murmured in my ear, “Let it go, baby, so I can come inside you.”
Giving in to the feeling, I gripped his shoulders tightly. My skin tingled and my toes curled as the longest and strongest orgasm I had ever felt exploded across my entire body. Ethan’s body jerked almost simultaneously as his cock pulsed, filling me with his release. I loved the feel of him coming inside of me, knowing he felt the same level of ecstasy from my body.
Biting his lip, Ethan leaned down and kissed me firmly. He lifted my back off the bed, bringing my breasts up to his lips. My body trembled and I could already feel myself tightening around his growing cock. I could see it in his eyes, it was going to be an exciting night, and I looked forward to it.
“When do you want to get married?” he asked, burying himself deep inside me.
“The sooner, the better,” I breathed, moaning with each thrust.
Holding my face in his hands, he kissed me, the pressure hard yet sensual. “Let’s make it happen. I’m ready for you to have my name.”
“So am I.”
CHAPTER34
ETHAN
TWO WEEKS LATER
Peyton and I arrived in California only a few days ago and signed the papers to our house. It was ours.
Her twelve-week follow-up appointment went smoothly, and we were able to hear the twins' heartbeats. We had the perfect plan for how we were going to tell everyone the good news. Not only about the twins, but our wedding as well. No one had the slightest clue which was what Peyton and I wanted.
Today was going to be full of surprises.
We ended up leaving most of the furniture at my Venice house so Wren could use it instead of her having to buy all new things. It worked out great because it gave Peyton and me the chance to start everything anew. All the furniture we ordered had already been delivered and set up in their respective rooms. Everything was almost done except for one thing.
“Our room looks good,” Peyton said, smoothing out the new comforter on the bed. She sauntered over to me and kissed me. “We can christen it tonight.”
Snatching her up in my arms, I nipped her bottom lip. “Yes, we will.” Laughter echoed down the hall, and I smiled. It was nice having our friends and family together in one place. “Are we ready to get back out there?”
