She groaned. “I never thought I could love anyone so much. Every second I’m not with you is painful…”
“I know, baby, it hurts me, too.” He locked his lips with hers and drew her taste into his body, his chest full of emotion like it had never been in his life. “Show me how much you love me, Pey. I promise you I’ll spend my life showing you how crazy I am about you.”
And he showed her when he slowly, lovingly possessed her, promising her that he would soon make her his, completely and utterly, and that every day he would remind her that she was treasured, and when she forgot then he would remind her again.
So she could call her friends up any day soon and tell them she was now Mrs. Luke Preston—and that Luke Preston was totally taken with her.
