Bloom - Page 108

It sure as hell was.

I’m looking at years with her now. I can plan ahead, get married, have kids, live.

We’re going to work toward that.

I tug on the bottom of the navy T-shirt I’m wearing. “How could I not get the woman I love a gift? It was supposed to be in your hand on your birthday.”

“Do I have to wait until after dinner to have it?”

I huff out a laugh. “Fuck no. Come with me.”

Her hand drops in mine. I press my lips to her palm before I tug her toward the sofa.

Epilogue

7 months later

Athena

I gaze in the mirror at the gold locket hanging around my neck. The etched lilac on the front catches the light and shimmers.

I haven’t taken the locket off since Liam put it around my neck the day he asked me to move in with him. It was almost two weeks after his surgery.

I ate a bite of chocolate cake before I opened the locket to find two pictures.

The one on the right is of me.

Liam must have taken it when I didn’t realize it. I’m looking forward in it, but my eyes were fixed on something to the left of the camera.

The image on the left is of Liam.

Short hair, a rugged jawline, and those beautiful blue eyes of his.

I’ve stared at the images for hours on end.

This is the locket that was always meant to hang around my neck. It will always stay there.

“If you walk around naked, I’m going to have to take you back to bed.”

I glance at the doorway to find my boyfriend completely naked too.

“We can’t.” I tilt my head. “We were supposed to be at the hospital an hour ago.”

Before I can say another word, I’m up and over his shoulder. My protests about us being late are met with a slap on my ass.

“Liam,” I cry out. “That hurt.”

He tosses me onto my back on the bed before he crawls over me.

I zero in on the lust that’s filling his eyes. “You want me.”

“Jesus, lilac.” His thick cock brushes against my thigh. “When the fuck do I not want you?”

I can’t answer that. We make love at least once a day, sometimes more.

I’m often woken with the brush of his thick cock against my ass or his face between my legs.

We stopped using condoms months ago because I’m on birth control. The raw feeling of him inside of me is everything. I can’t get enough of it.
