A tear slipped from my eye and slowly ran down my face. Finn reached up and gently wiped it away. “Say you’re gonna stay, Rory.”

Pressing my lips together, I fought to hold back my tears. I knew what he was asking of me. “I’m not going anywhere.”

“Promise me,” he whispered against my neck. “Because I need your touch like the desert needs water.”

My head dropped back against the door and I was taken to a euphoria I’d never experienced before…and he hadn’t even made love to me yet.

“I promise you,” I whispered from my lips as he swept me up into his arms. The moment the door opened I smelled the roses. Glancing around the room, I gasped. “Finn!”

The entire living room was filled with lit candles. Roses were everywhere. Flash barked from his crate. “Awe, he wants out,” I said with a pout.

Finn had yet to put me down. “Fuck that. The little bastard will knock over the candles and burn the place down.”

My lower stomach pulled. “I know a firefighter who could help if that happens.”

His eyes turned dark and a slow smile appeared across his face. “You do?”

I nodded. “He’s really cute too,” I replied as I wiggled my eyebrows.

He slowly let my body slide down his. When my toes touched the ground, he asked, “Should I be jealous?”

Staring into his breath-taking emerald eyes, I barely was able to speak. “Well, I am really attracted to him. He has a cute dog too, who is hell on four paws, but I know he really loves the dog. Matter of fact, I’m pretty sure he called the dog sitter more than once to check on him.”

Finn laughed. “How did you know?”

With a wink, I answered him. “I didn’t. It was a guess.”

Grabbing me and pulling me into his arms, he said, “You little stinker!”

Flash barked more as we both turned to look at him. “We should really let him out or he’s going to get jealous.”

Finn nodded in agreement. “The candles, though.”

“Let’s move them to the bedroom.”

Stopping where he was, Finn turned to me. We had been so caught up in the moment, both of us had forgotten what the candles and roses were here for.

“Fuck the dog,” he said as he made his way back over to me and pulled my mouth to his. His kiss was filled with so much passion the only thing I could do was whimper in delight. He stepped back and looked at me…and my chest heaved up and down. My stomach fluttered, and I wasn’t sure if it was from the kiss, the way he was looking at me, or knowing I was seconds from this man filling me completely.

Chapter 27

Rory

Magical and amazing

When we both needed air, Finn stepped back. My lips were tingling as I ran my fingertips over them. Finn winked and took my hand in his. He walked around the room and blew out the candles. I attempted to hide my smile. I’d had a feeling the firefighter in him was not going to leave them unattended.

Glancing over at the crate, Finn pointed to Flash. “Sorry, buddy.”

Flash whimpered and lay down. Finn slowly walked backward while holding both my hands. I don’t think I’d ever heard my heart beat so loudly in my ears before.

Once we were in his room, I sucked in a breath. The bedroom was covered in white lights. “How?” I asked in awe.

Finn looked up and smiled. “I have no clue, but I have a feeling I owe Regina and her boyfriend more than a six-pack of beer.”

Covering my mouth, I giggled. “For sure more than a six-pack.”

Finn dropped my hand and gazed into my eyes. I’d never had a man look at me the way he was now. If I hadn’t known any better, I’d have sworn I saw love in his eyes.

“I want to make this a night you’ll never forget.”

Oh, dear. My panties were instantly soaked.

When he pulled his shirt over his head and tossed it to the floor, I bit down on my lip to keep from moaning like the crazy horndog I felt like. If I’d had the nerve, I’d have ripped his clothes off and climbed on top of him.

He started to take off his jeans, and I had to place my hand over my stomach. I felt like a high school girl about to get her first kiss. My stomach was flipping around, my heart was pounding, and the pulse between my legs was begging for relief.

“Get undressed, Éan. I want to take a shower first.”

My eyes about bulged out of my head. A shower? He wanted to take a shower…together? “W-what?”

His dimples were full-blown. “Do you need help getting undressed?”

I nodded my head. I didn’t need help, but if it meant his hands on my body, I would agree to anything.
