Cole whisks me away, shoving me into the awaiting Escalade.

“What happened to the limo?”

I watch Cole’s jaw tense, but then he relaxes. “The Escalade’s bulletproof. Luke wasn’t sure what we were walking into.”

My eyes get wide, and my heart rate spikes. “Oh…” Maybe these threats are more serious than Cole’s letting on.

“Kate.” Cole’s fingers skim across my collarbone. “I see that pretty head of yours thinking.”

I cock an eyebrow. “So?” and I give him a wicked smile.

“There’s nothing to worry about.” He kisses just behind my ear, and I shiver. “It was just a security precaution. Besides, I thought you didn’t want to ride in the limo?”

“I enjoyed the privacy.” I kiss the corner of his mouth then whisper in his ear, “tell me the things you’re going to do to me when we get home.”

CHAPTER EIGHTEEN

In the elevator up to the villa, I push Cole up against the wall. “Kiss me,” I breathe over his lips.

“So, demanding.”

“Please.”

“Whatever my beautiful wife wants.” His lips cover mine, his kiss is subtle, soft, his tongue flicks the inside of my mouth lightly. I try to press myself into him, but he holds me, and I whine in protest. “We’ll never get out of this elevator if we go any further.”

“Is that a problem?” I breathe, nipping at his bottom lip.

“Oh baby, do I have plans for us.” Cole claims my mouth again. The elevator dings open, and he walks me backwards out of it. “I have a gift for you.”

“Another one, you spoil me.”

“It’s only the beginning, Cookie, so get used to it.” Cole leads me down the stairs. When we get to the bottom, he sweeps me off my feet. I wrap my arms around his neck, cuddling close to him, kissing the crook of his neck. This would be the perfect time to get back at him for all the hickies he’s given me. He can’t fight back without dropping me. I kiss his jaw, then graze my teeth along his neck, flicking my tongue out.

“Cookie, you wouldn’t dare.”

“Wouldn’t I?” I graze my teeth along his neck again, then place a couple light kisses there.

Inside the bedroom, he sits me down. “Wait here.”

I watch Cole disappear into the closet. When he walks out, he’s carrying a small gift bag. “Here, I bought this for you last weekend, but never managed a time to give it to you.”

I remove the tissue paper; inside is a white chemise with a blue satin ribbon that ties in the middle. There’s also matching panties that have the same ribbons on either side. “I didn’t pick it out. I ordered it. I told the saleslady we were getting married, and this is what she suggested.”

I’m stunned. I have no words. It’s so beautiful and so small, I don’t know if it will even go over my head.

“Kate, please say something. I can see that mind working.”

“It’s beautiful, thank you.”

Cole kisses my cheek, trailing kisses down my neck, and I sigh with pleasure.

“Will you wear it for me?”

“Yes.” I shudder as Cole hits a spot on my neck that makes me shiver. “Will you undo my dress?” Cole continues kissing me, each kiss sparking my desire. With each hook he undoes. He places a kiss there until they are all unfastened.

I turn, melding my mouth with Cole’s. I kiss him hard, and his mouth opens, granting me entry and our tongues twist together. “You change, I’ll get the wine.” Cole pecks me on the lips a few more times and then leaves the room. I remove my dress, but then go into the bathroom to change. I slide the panties on, but I examine the top for a few more minutes. I’ve never worn lingerie before. Here goes nothing.

I pull the bobby pins out of my hair and then brush it out. The lingerie is completely see through and my nipples poke at the fabric from arousal and cold air. I pull at the hem nervously. I don’t know why I’m nervous. It’s not like Cole hasn’t seen me naked or touched me in intimate places. What does it matter that I wear a little lingerie for him? Oh hell, this isn’t helping, as I remember all the places Cole has touched. I watch as red streaks climb up my chest and neck until they reach my face. This is not good. I grab a bathrobe off the back of the door and put it on. This doesn’t help, it just makes me hot and causes the red streaks to be more pronounced. Too bad there isn’t any alcohol in the bathroom. I could really use some right now.
