Laine untied the string, chills racing across her skin. “Naked right? Something about a cottage, a bunch of promises of pleasure I recall. Maybe you could give me a taste of that right now.”

She felt like she would melt from the heat in his eyes. “A taste would never be enough. If you let me, I’m going to give you everything, and I’m going to do it forever.” He took the box and knelt down in front of her, holding it up as she lifted the pink cardboard lid off the cake box and gasped.

Embedded in the center of the ten-inch round, buttercream frosted cake was the most breathtaking ring she’d ever seen.

“Will you give me forever, Laine?”

She dropped to her knees, pulling the frosting coated ring free. Jason set the cake aside and took the ring from her shaking grasp. He slid it over the third finger on her left hand, leaving a smeared sweet trail of frosting in its path.

“Yes, forever,” she sighed, feeling the word fill her heart as the soft glide of his lips against hers made the world go away.
