She moistens her lips. “Why Belize?”
I take another bite of steak. “I own a house there. If you don’t like it, we can sell it and buy something else.”
“What about Antiqua? We had our first adventure there.”
“I don’t own anything there. The company rents a villa. We can travel over the next year and then decide? Technically, we had our first adventure in the UK and then Switzerland.”
“We’ve already done more traveling than most couples.”
“We’ll need a base in New York, or your sisters won’t give their blessing.”
Immy laughs. “True. How did we get so lucky?”
“I’ve learned that is not all luck. It’s hard work and putting yourself out there, even when it’s scary. We’ve both done that.”
“Maybe we should skip dessert.”
I raise my hand and get the waiter’s attention. I can’t wait for us to start our life together. But first, I need to propose in Central Park, meet her family, take her to the theatre, and do countless other activities I planned for the coming weeks. But mostly, I want to spend time alone with her, savoring every moment.
Epilogue
Epilogue (Imogen)
Iwake tangled in crisp white sheets in the suite at One Hotel Brooklyn Bridge. It feels like home; yet we’ve barely been here for a week.
The bathroom door is ajar with the shower running. Memories flow over me of last night in Central Park, Alex had hired a violinist and photographer to arrive at Bow Bridge at sunset. I glance down at my hand and see the engagement ring. It’s stunning. Simple and elaborate. The rose-cut white diamond is on a barely-there cinched platinum band. Happiness settles over me, as I remember his words.I love you more than anything, Imogen Smith.
Sitting up, I untangle myself from the sheets. Tonight, my parents are coming into town to meet Alex. I’ve given him a rundown on their backgrounds, their quirks, and personalities. Whatever happens, they’ll have to welcome him into the family. I love him, and we are building a life together. But this first meeting makes me nervous. I want them to give their blessing.
I push open the bathroom door and say, “You’re up early after a late night.” He is washing his hair. His lean, powerful frame with its tight, sculpted muscles always reminds me of a cross between a long-distance runner and a boxer. His raw masculinity pulls me in every time.
“Are you getting in or merely ogling me?”
“Maybe I enjoy watching you.” I go through my usual morning routine and then step into the warm shower.
Alex slips his arms around me and kisses my neck. “I can’t get enough of you.”
I hold onto his shoulders. “I still have to pinch myself. I’m worried I’ll wake up and this will all have been a dream.”
He takes body wash and glides his hands down my back, over my bottom, and squeezes. “Not to worry. I plan on exploring every inch of your body, leaving no doubt this is real.”
“I love you, Alex. More than you know.”
He kisses my mouth and groans, “I love you more than anything in this world or the next.”
I put my arms around his neck and press my body against his. “I’m worried about tonight.”
He lifts me into his arms, and my legs wrap around his waist. Within seconds, my back is against the wall, and no coherent thoughts form. I can only enjoy the feel of his strong body and his mouth on my neck.
I hold on tight to his shoulders, and I’m lost. My nipples rub against the smooth expanse of his chest while I clench my legs around his waist.
Anchoring my hips with his hands, he slowly guides his dick into my slick folds. The sensations flooding through my core are intense and so pleasurable. After giving me a few seconds to accommodate his length, he thrusts into me again and again.
I hold on and feel an orgasm building. “Yes, more.”
He growls my name. When I lift my mouth to his, he kisses me deeply and I explode around him within seconds. Waves of pleasure pulse through me as he seeks his own release.
After he comes, he pulls back slightly and stares into my eyes. “I can’t get enough of you.”
