My breath hitches inside my chest as I swallow against the rising tide of emotions inside me. She has no idea how much control she possesses over me.
I’d do anything in this world just to see her smile.
She’s my whole fucking universe.
Once we are through town, I glance over at her. “Alright, love. Change the music.”
“Wherever I May Roam” by Metallic fills the car. “Excellent song choice, love.” I glance over at her, drinking in her beaming expression.
Fuck, I love this woman.
“I have a song for every occasion.” Her chestnut locks flow around her face as we pick up speed, making her look nothing short of divine.
Removing my hand from her thigh, I shift, taking the exit that will lead us to the mountains.
Turning my gaze to hers, a wicked grin covers my face. “Ready to see what she can do?”
She nods, an excited grin on her face.
Shifting gears, I stomp on the accelerator, the convertible jumping to sixty miles an hour within seconds. We fly down the road, the wind blowing through our hair. My gaze cuts to Everleigh, watching as she throws her head back, her arms in the air. She looks over at me, a breathtaking smile on her face. Reaching my arm in the air, I wrap my fingers around hers, causing her to laugh.
“This is amazing, Will. It feels like we are flying.” She tilts her face to the late afternoon sun, which is starting to make its decent.
“Now you know how I feel. It always seems like I’m flying whenever I’m around you.” Our gazes lock together, her expression matching everything I’m feeling inside. Pure elation, devotion, and unconditional love.
Slowing down, we lower our hands as I shift, racing up the mountain road, my heart pounding to the beat of the song, “You Shook Me All Night Long”by AC/DC. My gaze travels over the scenery stretching before me.
Fucking paradise.
As my gaze cuts to her, there is nothing more majestic than the feelings she stirs inside me. All the beauty of the mountains that whiz by us, the tall pines intermixed with maple, oak, and birch trees, pales in comparison to her timeless beauty.
Slowing my speed, I pull into a parking lot at the top of the mountain, going slowly over the gravel lot that crunches beneath the tires.
When I stop the car, my breath hitches inside my chest as I take in the wonder that is on Everleigh’s face.
She looks spellbound as her chocolate orbs widen, slowly scanning over the view. The golden rays streak across the sky, painting it baby blue and golden yellow. The colors shimmer across her luminous skin.
I press the button so the roof slides into place, sealing us in and keeping out the elements. “Stay right there.” My voice cuts through her awe, drawing her attention to me. Opening my door, I hurry around the car and open hers, extending my hand.
When she places her hand inside mine, butterflies swarm inside my stomach. She gracefully gets to her feet, her black heeled boots crunching over the gravel as her gaze locks on mine. With her windblown tresses framing her face, I’ve never seen her more angelic.
She gives me a broad, happy smile, looking at me as though I’m the best thing that’s ever happened to her. Reaching up, her fingers trace my jawline, causing an electrical current to flow through me, lighting up every nerve inside my body.
Goddamn, I love this woman.
Swallowing hard while fighting to regain my composure, I lead her to one of the large rocks that overlooks the valley below. I wait for her to get comfortably settled before lowering myself beside her. Pulling her against me, I wrap my arms tightly around her, briefly closing my eyes from the waves of bliss that course through me.
As the sun slowly dips lower on the horizon, the colors of the sky deepen. The fiery red, orange, and violet is a breathtaking sight, but it pales in comparison to the beauty of the woman wrapped in my arms, her face ethereal as she gazes at the sunset.
“Will,” her low voice is a gasp as she grapples to find the words. “This is the most gorgeous sight I’ve ever seen.”
“I’d have to agree.” My gaze is locked on her face, not caring about anything surrounding us.
“It’s surreal. It’s almost… Heavenly.” She turns her head to mine, her brown eyes a prism of the colors of the sunset.
“I completely agree.” My hand caresses her silky face, my heart overflowing with so much love for her that it’s hard to catch my breath.
She’s everything I’ve ever wanted and everything I didn’t know I needed.
