Page 20 of His Fate
His eyes fly open and his head jerks back before he just blinks at me. Then he starts to laugh the most beautiful and arousing laugh I have ever heard.
"No. That kiss was reserved solely for you and has never nor will ever be given to another."
I nod as I wipe away my left over tears. "That's an acceptable response."
"Your second question?" Kai tugs me over to his bike where he leans against it before pulling me between his knees.
I look him dead in the eye, school my features and ask, "Is your dick really that big or do you have a third leg?"
His eyes flash momentarily before he laughs again and buries his face in my neck. "Perhaps it is best we do not discuss that particular piece of my anatomy until you have fully committed to being with me." Kai nips at my pulse, presses a kiss to it then meets my gaze. "But to answer your question, no I do not have a third leg."
"Fair enough." I giggle because I can't help it.
"Your third question?"
I roll my bottom lip between my teeth and search his beautiful face. Fuck me, he is just so goddamn hot. And right this second, he's mine.
Nerves take flight in my belly but I'm not going to back down. Kai already has a pretty good idea about my job situation, working two fast-paced jobs from early in the morning to late at night. Sure, I'm only scheduled to work one of them three nights a week and I don't usually pull doubles at the other, but I always pick up extra hours whenever I can since dad's social security and pension only go so far. The rest of my very little time is devoted to him, whether it's caring for him at home or running him to the doctor, doing his PT and OT or even just grocery shopping.
Kai will see soon enough that I'm not worth the effort because I can't put much, if any, into someone as special as him.
"Do you want to give me a ride home and come inside for dinner?"
His whole face lights up as a full blown, ear to ear smile graces his lips. I mean, Kai is pretty no matter what, but he barely lets any emotion pass across his features and to see him laugh, then smile at me the way he is now? It completely transforms him from brooding-sexy to barely-able-to-tolerate-it-because-it's-blinding sexy.
"Really?" Kai asks eagerly. "You wish to invite me into your home and share a meal with me?"
I nod and giggle because he's also very cute.
"I accept. Emphatically. Unconditionally. I absolutely accept."
"Then let's go. Hopefully I made enough to feed your big ass too."
Kai snorts as he straddles his bike. "My big ass?"
"Mmhmm." I grin as I get on behind him. "You've got to be pushing seven foot tall, Kai. I imagine you can really eat."
"Six foot nine." He smirks at me over his shoulder before he revs the engine. "And it is true, I most definitely can eat."
"Then you're in luck because I most definitely can cook. And for the record, you don't have a big ass. It's perfectly proportionate to the rest of your big body."
"And my third leg."
I stare at the back of his head for a minute before I crack right up and he tears off down the road.

Twenty minuteslater we're rolling to a stop in my driveway and those butterflies are back in full force.
I haven't brought a guy home to meet my dad since high school. Hell, I haven't brought anyone home to meet my dad since high school. And he is going to shit a brick when I not only walk in with a guest, but an almost seven foot tall guest who is gorgeous and slightly terrifying and as big as a house.
Oh, and let's not forget the crazy tattoos and shocking hair.
I hop off the bike and see that Kai has his phone out and appears to be texting.
"Checking in at home?"
He frowns. "My brothers can be a tad over protective. It is best I let them know my plans or else they will come looking for me."
