“You look freezing. I’m sorry I didn’t get you in here sooner.”
“It’s ok.”
It gave Harper and me a chance to chat.
He hands me a towel and I take it, my left hand on top of the towel and my right underneath.
He looks down at my hand and his eyebrows furrow instantly. He clamps down on the towel, not letting me have it.
“Where’s your ring?”
“I took it off for sledding. It’s safe, I promise.”
“Where is it?” he asks, his eyes narrowing on me.
Is he honestly not happy that I took it off for one afternoon?
“In my jacket pocket,” I tell him.
He finally releases the towel and trudges over to my jacket that I put on the bathroom vanity.
He unzips the jacket pocket and pulls out the ring before turning back to me. He pulls my left hand gently from the towel into his and then slides the ring back on my left hand.
“This ring belongs on your finger, where other people can see it and know you’re taken,” he says.
There’s that sexy possessive side of him again that gets me worked up.
“I didn’t want to lose it in the grass today,” I tell him.
“It never comes off, Juliet. Promise me that this ring never comes off your finger,” he says, backing me up slowly until my ass hits the wall next to the shower.
“But what if I lose it?” I ask.
He slides his arm around my back and his chest plasters against my body.
“Then I’ll buy you a bigger one next time. Promise me,” he says and then presses his lips to mine.
I kiss him back, the heat from his mouth and the billowing steam from the shower starting to warm my frigid body.
“I promise,” I say.
He loves me.
He hasn’t claimed it out loud, but Harper’s words keep echoing in my head that I need to stop leading Ryker on by making him think that I want more than these two years. But I’m not leading him on, because I do… I want “until death do us part”.
And I want it with him.
Chapter Twenty-Four
Ryker
Our hands tangle into a mess of uncoordinated need and desire. Grabbing and pulling. Kissing and sucking. Neither one of us can seem to get enough of the other.
I pull the thin white camisole up and over Juliet's head and then I unlatch her bra, letting it fall to the ground between us. Anything that keeps me from her body has to go. I stare down at her perfectly bare body. There are so many things I want to do with her and if I get what I’m after, we’ll have a lifetime to explore it all.
Juliet tugs at my t-shirt. If she wants me naked, I’m more than happy to oblige. I follow her lead and pull my t-shirt from my body.
I unzip my pants and push both my jeans and my boxer briefs down in one fluid motion. My hard cock springs free of its confines, looking for Juliet to sink into. The only woman I’ve wanted since the moment we met—the only woman I’ll ever want.
