Her face softened, her eyes filling with hope.
Yeah, he had her now. “You said you didn’t want to be lonely anymore. I promised I’d be with you. So be with me. Let me take care of you. Let’s have everything we ever wanted.”
“A family.” She’d lost hers and wanted to be part of another.
He could give her a new one. They could build one of their own. “Yes. Just say you’ll stay.” He held his breath, desperate for her to say yes.
“Your houseisbigger than mine.”
“Ourhouse.”
“And you’re ready for me to bring my stuff here, to move in? To make this place my home.”
“Ourhome. Because it’s only that if you’re here.”
She picked up her fork. “Two. Maybe three.” She lost him.
“What?”
“Kids.” She stuffed a big bite into her mouth and chewed, a smile tugging at her lips and lighting her eyes.
His whole body sizzled with excitement. “Really? When?”
“How about we take care of Desiree, I move in for real, we spend some time really getting to know each other and learning to live together, then we go from there to having kids.”
I need a ring,Hawk realized.
She deserved a kickass proposal.
She deserved a happy life. And he’d give it to her, or die trying.
“How about we celebrate you moving in with those amazing cupcakes you made?”
“After.”
He raised a brow. “After what?”
“You take me to bed.” She wiped her lips on her napkin, pushed her chair back, and started walking toward their room.
He jumped up, toppling his chair, picked her up bridal style and carried her into the bedroom. He tossed her onto the bed. She bounced with a laugh and he dove for her, locking his lips with hers, devouring her while joy lit him up inside because this beautiful woman loved him, broken pieces and all.
And didn’t that make them a perfect match?
He took his time undressing her, kissing, licking, worshipping every patch of skin he uncovered. He kissed his way down her belly, thinking about her growing round with his child, then dove deeper to her mound, pressing a kiss there before lapping at her clit with his tongue.
“Hawk.”
Oh, how he loved the way she moaned his name.
His impatient woman didn’t let him linger too long as he tongue fucked her, loving the feel of her thighs pressing against his head as she held him by the hair, pulling him closer to her pussy as she ground against his mouth and went off like a rocket. He loved watching her come apart beneath him. But she was desperate for more and attacked his button and zipper on his slacks, her hand diving into his boxer briefs to clamp around his stiff cock.
“You look too damn good dressed up. It’s like the best kind of porn seeing your sleeves rolled up over those defined forearms.”
He chuckled. “You like my arms?”
“You have no idea.” She pumped his cock and licked her lips like she wanted to devour him whole.
“I’ll remember that.” He shucked off his clothes, spread her thighs wide, and settled between them, the crown of his cock nudged right at her silky smooth, wet entrance. “You want me?”
