“Your wife?” New tears appear, and I can’t stand it anymore.
“Come here.” I pick her up and carry her to her bedroom while I kiss her full, soft lips. After a long moment I stare into her eyes and make sure she’s okay. “Better?”
“Much.” She sighs and looks up at me. “What about Kyle? He knows about us. What if he tells your work or tries to ruin my family?”
“Little flower.” I brush her hair away from her face and kiss her again. “If your family loves you the way I know they do, then all they will want is for someone to take care of you and provide you with your heart’s desire. That’s exactly what I plan on doing forever.” She’s about to ask another question, but I stop her. “And my company can close its doors today and I’ll still have enough money to last ten lifetimes. If they have a problem with the woman I love, then they can get the fuck out.”
“You really love me?” When she says it this time, it sounds more confident.
“With every single part of my soul. You’re mine, Nadia, and now that I’ve probably got my baby in your belly, I want my ring on your finger too.”
“I love you too, Walsh,” she says before we start kissing again.
I’m so consumed with tasting her mouth that I don’t hear the footsteps behind us.
“Um, Nadia? Who is this man sucking your face?”
