“Ryker,” she blurted.“At this rate, I won’tbe able to hold myself back.”
“Put your arms back around my neck.”
She obeyed, groaning when he positioned thetip of his cockhead right into her entrance.Ryker gripped her hipsand slid inside her.She gasped as he made his way slow and steadydeep inside her, not rushing at all.It was like he was being extracareful not to hurt her.
Sky was so slick, so ready for him that itdidn’t hurt at all.Finally, he buried himself balls deep inside ofher.A perfect fit.
“Fuck, baby, you’re nearly virgin tight,” hesaid with a groan.
She shifted on his lap, earning a playfulsmack on her ass.She groaned, unexpectedly thrilled by that tinybite of pain.
“You liked that, didn’t you?Next time, I’mgoing to leave all my handprints all over that heart-shaped ass ofyours.”
Unable to speak, she only nodded.
Ryker plundered her mouth again, disablingher ability to think.
She buried her fingers into his hair as hewithdrew from the kiss and started on a steady rhythm, beforepicking up speed.Each time their bodies joined, it felt like hersoul inched its way little by little to make a home in his heart.The image of her name inked into his chest blazed in her mind.
Sky knew Ryker thought he wasn’t a good man.Maybe the rest of the world thought the same way, but he washerman.
He plunged faster, deeper inside her.Hercore tightened.She dug her nails into his back muscles as he foundher G-spot.Sky cried out, gasping as he rammed into the spotagain.He reduced her to pants, pleas, and whimpers.
“You want to come?Say that magic wordagain.”With each entry, he made sure his dick brushed against hersensitive clit.She gasped, arching her back.Her nipples tightenedto points.
“Please!”
He breached her one more time.The pressurebuilding inside her burst open and her vision hazed over as hermind flew twenty thousand feet in the air.She collapsed againsthis chest, languidness filling her entire body.Sky could stay likethis forever.Several thrusts later, he emptied his load inside ofher, whispering one single word in her ear.
“Mine.”
She shuddered in his arms, not forgettingwhat he told her earlier.Ryker wanted to make it official.To makeher his wife.It was everything she ever dreamed of, and more.
“Did you mean what you said earlier?”shehad to ask, stroking her name on his chest.
He kissed her, slow and tender this timearound.“I never joke around.I could have waited, brought yousomewhere nice for our first time, but I can’t hold myself backanymore.Seeing you with Giovanni and the others, made me realizedwhat a fucking fool I’ve been all these years.”
“I could have come back home anytime Iwanted, but I’m stubborn.I wanted to prove to you, to myself, thatI could make it on my own.”
“You don’t need to prove yourself to me oranyone else.You’re a survivor, sweetheart.There’s no doubt you’reable to make it anywhere, but if that makes you miserable, then youshould follow your instincts.”
He closed his fingers over hers, not yetdone speaking.“Come with me.”
Sky got off his lap, her heart beatingwildly as he grabbed her hand and led her inside his bedroom.Hereleased her momentarily to open the top drawer of the shelf nextto his bed.She gasped, seeing the black velvet box.
“You have a ring?”she whispered.“Forme?”
Ryker thought this far?
“Who else?I always figured that if you evercame home, I wouldn’t stand by idly anymore.”Ryker went on oneknee.
Sky couldn’t believe this was happening.Ryker opened the box, revealing a plain gold band with aprincess-cut diamond on top.Tears of happiness slipped down hercheeks as he asked her that question she’d always dreamed of.
“Skylar, will you do me the honor ofbecoming my wife?”
“Yes,” she answered without hesitation.
Ryker stood back up, grinning as he slippedthe ring into her finger.A perfect fit.
