I stared down into his ocean blue eyes. I didn’t even need to think about it. They were all everything I’d ever wanted. Each one of them. And together we just fit.
“A thousand times yes,” I said and threw myself down into Bennett’s arms.
Everyone at the table cheered and whistled.
But I was totally focused on Bennett. “I love you.”
“I love you so much, baby.”
I buried my fingers in his hair and kissed him.
He chuckled against my lips. “Don’t you want to see your ring? Huxley designed it.”
“Yes!”
He flipped open the lid to reveal the biggest diamond I’d ever seen in my life.
“Do you like it, princess?” Huxley asked.
Did I like it? I freaking loved it! “It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen. I’m scared to even touch it.”
Bennett pulled it out of the box for me. “Well, we’re going to need you to wear it. Because we want everyone to know you belong to us.” He slid it onto my finger.
It glistened under the chandelier lighting. I pressed my hand against Bennett’s chest, staring at the way the diamond shimmered.I could get used to this.
He touched the bottom of my chin and I lifted my gaze back to his.
I stared at my fiancé. “Oh my God, I have five fiancés.”
“Yeah you do.” Otto lifted me up from behind and twirled me around.
I laughed and spun around to kiss him when he finally set me down.
“You’re the most beautiful fiancée in the world,” he said and pressed a soft kiss against my lips.
I felt Huxley’s lips on the back of my neck. “I’m so glad you like your ring, princess.” His soft kiss at the base of my skull sent a shiver down my spine.
I turned to look at him. “I love it. And I love you.”
He smiled. “You make me so happy.” He dropped his forehead to mine.
“I have to see this ring,” Kebe said and grabbed my hand. “Such good taste, Huxley.”
I laughed. And then Ace spun me around to face him. “Ace.” My voice cracked. “I am so excited to be yours.”
“You already are mine.” He reached out and wiped my tears away with his rough hands.
I hadn’t even realized I was crying. I was just so damned happy. I threw my arms around him.
He lightly bit my earlobe.
I took turns getting hugs from everyone else. Emma squealed and practically tackled me when she forgot for a moment that she had a huge belly.
“You’re going to have the five best uncles, baby girl,” I said and touched her belly.
Emma laughed.
“Six best uncles,” Grudge said and pulled me into a side hug. “Congrats, hot stuff.”
