“Fine,” I whisper. “Just so you know, I am putting this on the scorecard, and you better pay up big.”

He chuckles and pulls me into a hug.

“Like five carats big,” I grumble against his shoulder.

He tips his head back and laughs out loud, and it echoes through the valley.

And somehow, I just know everything is going to work out.

With my heart beating hard in my chest, I get my harness on and listen to the instructions. Together we stand at the edge.

“You ready?” He smiles over at me.

“Maybe six carats,” I mouth.

He chuckles and dives over the edge. He goes flying down into the valley, the sound of his laughter bouncing off the rock faces.

Thump, thump, thump goes my heart.

Fuck.

Just do it.

I close my eyes, and against my better judgment, I let go of the edge.

I’d follow him anywhere.

Chapter 26

Juliet

The plane hurtles down the runway, and I let out a deep sigh. All good things must come to an end. Our perfect vacation is over.

We are so in love; our little speed bumps while we were away only cemented our bond even further.

This is it for us, and we both know it.

Henley’s learned that he can still be his sexually dominant self and be in love with me.

There are no lines, no one or the other.

Somehow in his mind he thought he had to choose, love me . . . or dominate me in bed, and he was struggling. Unable to choose between the sex that he needs and the love that he wants.

We’ve finally found our happy place where we can have it all.

He loves me so much and yet now has the freedom to fuck me like he hates me . . . and it is so fucking good.

I glance over to my traveling partner; he smiles and gives me a sexy wink.

Ugh, he’s infuriating. How does he look so good even after a stupidly long flight? I look like roadkill, and he’s over there looking all GQ-model-like.

“Welcome home to Los Angeles International Airport. Local time eleven fifteen p.m. Thank you for flying with us, and we look forward to welcoming you again very soon,” the voice says over the loudspeaker.

We leave the plane and go through customs on autopilot. “I can’t wait to get into bed.” I sigh. “I’m so exhausted.”

“I know, babe.” Henley puts his arm around me and pulls me close to kiss my temple. “Soon.”

I sleep in the car on the way home. “We’re home.” Henley wakes me up before he wheels our bags inside. I try to finish waking up enough to get out of the car. Damn, I’m wrecked.
