“Do you like it?” he asked.

I nodded. That was all I could do without losing my cool. It was so freaking perfect. I started strumming the first song I wrote for him.

He kissed my head. “What else do you want?” he whispered.

The original may be lost, but this guitar, which sounded beautiful and felt like heaven in my hands, was brand new and carried Jackson in it. I was almost as in love with it as I was with him.

“Katie?” he asked, pulling me from the spiral I was edging toward.

I racked my brain. “I have no idea. You and I are getting better. Things are returning to us that I swore we’d lost forever, and we’re somewhat safe at the moment. Other than you and your love, the babies being yours, and being welcomed into this family, there’s nothing on this planet I could point at and say ‘That. That’s what I want.’”

“Well, there’s something I want,” Jackson stated.

I sat up, placing the guitar on the floor. I turned to him. “You have to know that anything you want that’s within my power to give you is yours.”

“Good, but what I want is to give you something.”

“Jackson, you’ve given me so much,” I objected.

He slid to the floor in front of me, kneeling between my knees. He cupped my face, staring into my eyes before kissing me.

“I wanna give you my name,” he whispered against my mouth.

Twenty-Nine

Jackson

“I wanna give you my name.”

Katie’s mouth fell open, and tears popped into her eyes.

My heart thundered in my chest as I opened the ring box I had stowed under the cushion she was sitting on.

Unable to wait any longer, I asked again, “Will you be mine forever?”

She fought the tears, her face screwing up as she nodded. Her throat squeaked as she swallowed the emotion I could see on her face. She nodded, her hands covering her mouth.

Tears threatened as I smirked at her. I blinked so I didn’t lose sight of her beautiful face in the blur. As tears streamed into my beard, I took her hand in mine then I said, “I need the words.”

I pulled the ring from the box, holding it in front of her finger.

Sliding her finger into the ring, she gasped, “Yes.”

Throwing herself at me, she tackled me to the floor. The ring box went tumbling as she attached herself to my mouth, straddling my hips, kissing me until the world fell away.

Everything centered around her. She was my sun, my moon, my stars, my universe.

Her mouth traveled down my neck and chest—licking, sucking, and biting as she went. Her hot little pussy burned through my jeans.

Pissed that I couldn’t see her luscious curves, I yanked my t-shirt from her body that I’d put on her earlier.

She looked up at me as she bit my nipple, worrying it between her teeth. The ring on her hand sparkled in the light as she rolled my other nipple between her fingers.

“I needed to see you,” I whispered.

She sat up. My cock strained toward her pussy. Her warmth cupped my cock. I reached for my belt. I needed her again.

She slapped my hand away.
