Looking at Adriana, my heart just feels so full. Her smile brings a smile to my face. I was worried about her after the note and flowers that were left on her car. I know we will talk about her conversation with Toby earlier tonight on the way home.

“Hey, Casanova.” Adriana says with a gleam in her eyes as she sits back down.

“Hey, Sugar.” I greet and nip at her ear.

She shivers.

“Want to head home?” she asks with desire in her eyes.

“Whenever you’re ready and can, babe. Are we waiting for Heather and Ty, too?”

“They’re staying to wrap up the event. She told me the car will come back to get them,” she tells me.

“Okay. Well, whenever you want to head home, we can go.” I repeat.

“Let’s say our goodbye’s.” She informs me.

What did those two talk about in the bathroom? Adriana seems like she can’t wait to leave now. Did she run into Toby again? Is that why she wants to leave so quickly?

We start with Heather and Ty, since they’re here at the table with us. We take about twenty minutes to say goodbye to everyone we know and another ten waiting for the car to pull up that is taking us home.

Once inside the vehicle, Adriana is laying her head on my shoulder.

“Did you have fun tonight?” I ask her.

“Mmmhmm. Did you?” she responds and places a kiss on my neck.

“I did. But then again, anytime with you is always fun.” I tell her.

“Casanova.” she states.

I chuckle at her response.

“You believe Toby?” I inquire.

“I don’t know. He had to have lied to me about a bunch of things, so I know it’s possible. At least we know how long he’s here for and to be on guard.” She tells me.

“I’m glad you’re staying with me while he’s in town.”

“Me too. Now enough about Toby.” she responds.

She lifts her head and presses her lips to mine. Just as I swipe my tongue across her lips, the car stops and we’ve arrive home.

CHAPTER THIRTY-SEVEN

“Let’s get inside.” I tell Adriana.

She nods as the driver opens the door. I get out first and hold my hand out to help her out again.

We get inside, Adriana goes straight upstairs while I lock up and go to the kitchen to grab us water.

Tonight couldn’t have gone better. Adriana was a natural with the media and took everything in stride. Knowing I’ll be able to just be with her in public has me feeling like a million bucks. I can show my girl off.

As I make my way upstairs to my bedroom, I have a huge smile on my face. Adriana looked stunning in her flapper dress tonight. It displayed her heavenly curves, driving me crazy all night. All I wanted was to bring her home and devour her.

No matter what, I’ll be happy to just to have her in my bed.
