“W-what are you saying, Heath?”

“You know what I’m saying, babe.You’re not leaving me becauseyou can’t.I dare you to try to walk out that door and never look back. Even if you manage to make it to the bus stop—and I know you well enough to know that’s what your plan is—I will follow you anywhere you go. I will haunt you. You’ll see me, think of me, dream of me.”

I cup her face, and this time she doesn’t strike my hand away. Her full lips are taunting me, so ripe and swollen from the assault of my kisses.

Dropping my forehead against hers, I pant with the effort it takes to hold back. I want her body, to seal our fates and fill her with my child and live my life with her.

Forher.

I close my eyes, breathing in her scent. “Serenity, don’t back down now. All you have to do is step forward.”

“Your father hates me. Your brothers too.”

“I don’t hate you and that’s all that matters. Tell me you’re mine, babe. I have to have you. My mind’s made up.”

Her fingers clasp on my shirt.

Over my heart.

“I choose you, Serenity.”

She issues a harsh, rasping cry. “Heath…”

I stake my claim with another kiss that has my cock pounding and her arching against me. Our tongues mesh and meld. The heat of passion rages between us, but my happiness lies in her hands.

When I rip my mouth free, I stare into her eyes. “Say you are mine, Serenity.”

She whimpers.

“Say it,”I command in an urgent whisper.

“How can I when my father made us enemies?”

“He made himself an enemy. Not you.”

“Your family treated me as an enemy. You ostracized me, slammed every door in my face.”

“My father’s doing and I was young and stupid so I followed his lead. No more. I’ve already told him that you’re in my life and I’m not backing away this time.”

Her eyelids flutter. “You…told him?”

“Yes, goddammit. Now say the words so I can lay you down on that bed and make you forget everything.” I cup her breasts, and she bows under my touch. “I’ll shield you with my body, my name, all my power. I will make you the happiest wife alive.”

“W-wife?” Her eyes flare wide.

My heart soars. I almost have her agreement, and they will be the sweetest words I ever hear besides the moment she tells me that she’s giving me a child.

“Let me care for you.” I roll her nipple between my thumb and finger until it pinches into a tighter bud. Seeing she only needs a little more persuasion, I settle my hand between her legs, cupping her pussy.

Her cry ends on a squeak when I apply pressure to her clit through the leggings she’s wearing.

I smooth my thumb over her hard bud again and again. Her head drops forward against my chest.

“You know what to say to me, Serenity.”

She bobs her head and moans when I shove my finger against her entrance through her clothes. Then she looks up into my eyes.

“Yes,” she whispers, and makes me the happiest man alive.
