"You’re not her dad," he replied.
"He forgets that sometimes," Luke said. “Declan thinks he's the boss of everyone. Relax, brother. And, Drake, welcome to the family."
Luke kissed my cheek and then shook Drake's hand. "I figured something was going to happen when you said you didn’t want to have dinner with us. But I have to say, I didn't think you'd move this fast.”
I glanced down at the folders. "Can we discuss what you have there tomorrow?"
"Actually, we should start right n—” Declan started, but Luke cleared his throat.
"Yeah, we can." He stared at Declan, who nodded.
"Sure. You two have a great evening. Luke, let's go grab a beer and we can finalize this."
Usually, I’d feel guilty for letting my cousins do the heavy lifting, but not today. Today, I simply wanted to bask in my man and reward him for the romantic proposal.
I felt myself blush as we entered the elevator. There was another couple inside. As we squeezed in, Drake took my hand, interlacing our fingers. He caressed the ring with his thumb. I already felt more connected to him, which was crazy. We loved each other, ring or not, but somehow it seemed to intensify everything I felt for him.
The first stop was our floor, and we stepped outside quickly. I giggled as I walked down the corridor.
"I love seeing you so happy," Drake said.
"I’m over the moon."
"Music to my ears." He slid the card in, and the second we were inside the room, I closed the door and then simply jumped him. He chuckled. "Easy there, girl."
"Nope, nothing about this will be fast or easy."
He grinned big before pressing his lips to mine.
"Hey, stop it. Don't take over. You're mine to kiss and torment." I could feel a stirring in his jeans. "Ha, that was exactly what I wanted. And just so you know, I appreciate all the effort you might have put into this evening, but I'm not sure we're going to get out at all."
He wiggled his eyebrows. "Already ahead of you, Kimberly." He carried me into the suite. There was a bottle of Maxwell champagne in a chilled bucket on the counter. He grabbed it and took me inside the bedroom. "I asked for a delivery from our favorite restaurant."
"You know me so well."
"I do. And I have a lifetime to explore you even more. And it starts tonight."
