“You’re marrying me. Immediately. I’m not waiting. I want every fucker out there to know that you’re mine.”
She smiles with tears in her eyes, her hands touching my hair gently as I lean in to kiss her belly. “Shouldn’t you ask me?”
I shake my head. “Nope. That gives you the chance to say no and I’m not listening to no.”
“I won’t say no.”
“Good.”
I stand up and reach into my pocket. I open the velvet box and Onyx gasps when she sees the stunning London topaz stone in a huge rectangular shape and surrounded by little diamonds.
Her eyes fill with tears as I drop to my knees again. “Onyx…”
I stop, realizing that I don’t remember her last name and Onyx laughs. “Everhard.”
“Onyx Everhard. Will you do me the honor of marrying me and making me the happiest man in the world, raising babies with me and spending the next fifty or sixty years together, loving each other and the family that I want to raise with you?”
She drops to her knees and then her lips are on mine, her hand trembling as I slip it on. “I love you, Merrick.”
“That’s good because I cannot live without you. Even three weeks was enough to kill me. The only thing that kept me going was your painting staring at me and telling me that you would be home. It was destiny that we found each other but it was love from that first moment that kept me waiting for you.”
The tears are pouring down her cheeks and then there’s a knock at the door. “
“Hold that thought.” I open the door and groan when I see Booker holding something in his hands.
“You left this at the studio and she sent me back here with it since you refused to sell it.” He grins. “You won the prize by the way!” There’s a blue ribbon stuck to it and I smile.
“That’s great! But I’ve got the original and she needs me right now. Bring it back tomorrow.” And then I slam the door in his face.
Onyx laughs behind me. “That was very rude, Merrick.”
I shake my head. “Nope. And I’ve got plans for right now. My brother is not part of them either.”
She giggles and I lift her up in my arms and carry her to the bedroom. “We’re gonna have to get a bigger house. Maybe I should sell that painting. I had some good offers.”
I then turn away and drop her to the bed. “Nope. I’m not gonna do it. That painting will always have pride of place in our house. We’ll just be a little cramped for awhile. I’ve got some good contracts for paintings and I will be able to buy something bigger soon.”
“Or we could use the money I have from the sale of my house to buy something. Along with the sale of yours.”
“You own a house. Yes, my company, Silver Belles is quite busy. We were featured in a jewelry magazine and I’ve been swamped since. I bought a house to spread out in.”
“I-I-can’t believe that.”
Her frown makes me cringe. “Not that you’re this famous artist, honey. I can’t believe that you want to move here to be with me.”
She lifts her face and her lips touch mine gently. “I do.”
I run my lips up and down her throat and across her body, stripping our clothes off and pitching them around the room, loving her laugh when my pants land on the bed post.
Then I fall across her and she curls her lush thighs around my hips. I pause, my heart thudding. “Is it okay to have sex? I mean..are you okay?”
She laughs and then pulls me tight into her. “I won’t be if you don’t put that big dick in me, Merrick.”
I laugh wildly and then line myself up with her. I wish that I could take some time and enjoy her body, make her explode over and over. But right now…I can’t wait.
“Baby, I need you. I can’t wait.”
She shakes her head. “Don’t wait. Fuck me, Merrick. I want to feel you inside me, deep inside me. I want to feel your love.”
