Page 21 of Claiming His Student

I planned a day full of activities and now she’s relaxing in a long bath while I cook our dinner. I’ve laid out a beautiful silk dress on the bed for her, knowing it will show off every curve of her sexy body. Then, as we eat together, I’ll tell her exactly why I want to spend the rest of my life with her.

When she comes downstairs in her new dress, she takes my breath away. Her green eyes are less puffy than before and she’s wearing a little makeup, but not so much that it takes away from her natural beauty. The teal dress shows off her curves and makes my cock spring to life in my pants. She’s so incredible that I can barely believe she’s mine. If she says yes to my proposal, then I’m going to be the luckiest man on Earth.

“Something smells good,” she says with a gentle smile. I gesture to the dining room table.

“I made your favorite, risotto.”

She blushes. “Dylan, you’ve gone to such an effort. What’s all this for?”

“I just think you deserve it. Here, let me help you in to your chair.”

I pull out her chair for her so that she can sit and start the meal. She can’t stop smiling as she tucks into the food.

“It’s really good. I’m so lucky to have a man as thoughtful as you,” she says timidly. I take her hand in mine.

“All I want is to dedicate my life to making you happy. You deserve the world, baby, and I plan to give it to you. I just want to show you that you made the right choice by coming with me.”

“I already know that, Dylan. You don’t need to prove it to me,” Cora says softly, squeezing my hand. I want to kiss her so much right now, but I know where kissing always leads us. Right now, I just want her more than anything to know how I feel. I just want her to know that she’s making the right choice when she says yes to my proposal and I slide that diamond ring onto her pretty finger.

“Cora. I’ve never seen a future with anyone before. I’ve had opportunities in my life to be with women, but I turned every single one of them down. I was waiting for someone special. I figured if they weren’t the one then what’s the point? And now I know that I’ve found that person in you. And I don’t want to wait for a second longer to start our future together. I know that I want a family with you. I know that I want to spend the rest of my life loving you and giving you everything I have. Which is why…”

I reach in my pocket and bring out a small black velvet box. She gasps and I open the box so she can see the diamond ring.

“You deserve nothing less than the best and I can give you that,” I growl. “So that’s why I wanted to ask you...will you marry me?”

“Yes! Of course, I will,” she says without a moment’s hesitation. She leaps up out of her chair and I do too so I can catch her in my arms when she runs to me. I twirl her around the room, my strong arms holding her close to me. As we kiss I feel like the luckiest man in the world. I set her down on the floor long enough to slide the ring onto her finger and then we’re kissing desperately again. I feel the familiar surge that always happens when she’s around. I sweep her up easily in my arms and look deep into her eyes.

“I love you so much,” I growl.

“I love you too, Dylan.”

I can’t tear my eyes away from her as I carry her upstairs, dinner forgotten completely. I need her body. I help her out of that silk dress to admire her beautiful naked body before me. I lay her down on the bed and take off my clothes while she watches breathlessly. I growl as I move over the top of her body. There’s no time for foreplay today, no need to take this slow. We both know exactly what we want. I slide inside her easily and hear the sweet sounds of her moans filling the air.

All we want or need is each other.Chapter TenA few days laterCoraDylan’s final lecture is today. I still can’t believe that my Dad went through and fired him, but there’s nothing I can do about it. His mind is made up and Dylan says he wants to go without another fight. I know if it was in any other situation he would fight, but he doesn’t want to upset me more than my Dad already has. Even with Dylan’s ring on my finger and his baby in my belly, it still hurts that my Dad pushed me away so easily.
