Page 70 of Keeping His Babygirl

“Better hurry then, babygirl,” I say, giving her ass a little swat.

She jumps away, rushing to the bedroom to get ready. I follow after at a much slower pace because I’ll be damned if I miss a chance to watch my girl getting naked. Addy rushes through getting dressed and brushes out her long hair. It falls around her shoulders in a silky blonde wave. She’s touching up her makeup when Marsha shows up.

“Time to go, doll.”

She gives me an exasperated look. “I’m almost done.”

I wrap my arms around her from behind. “You look beautiful.”

She leans back against me for a second, then elbows me away. I just need to fix my lipstick, and I’ll be good to go. Part of me wants to pull her away so we can get this night started. I’m full of anxious energy that won’t go away until she’s said yes to marrying me. The other part of me remembers how sexy her lipstick looks when she’s got those plump lips wrapped around my cock.

Once we are at the club, I bypass everything and lead her straight to the private room I’ve reserved for the night.

“What’s the hurry?” Addy asks, tugging on my hand to get me to slow down. “Don’t you want to see who’s here? It’s been a while since we’ve seen the gang.”

“Nope. Not here for them.”

I pick her up and toss her over my shoulder when she still drags her feet. She lets out a breathless laugh but doesn’t put up a fight. Good thing because I won’t be swayed away from my plans to lock her down as my fiancée as quick as possible.

I take a quick look around the private room, and I’m impressed by how quickly Tessa pulled everything together for me. Yellow roses and candles are on every flat surface available. It looks just like I hoped.

I set Addy on her feet, and she gets her first look at the room. “What’s all this?” she asks, spinning around to take it all in.

I get down on one knee, and when she turns to face me again, her lips pop open in surprise. Her hands cover her mouth as her shock rocks through her.

“Addy, my love, my babygirl, will you make me the happiest man in the world and marry me?”

She’s quiet for a long moment… long enough that I start to worry that she might think that this next step is too soon. I know she never thought she’d marry again, but I’m praying she’s changed her mind.

Just when I think she’s not going to answer, she throws herself at me. I catch her in my arms and steady us before we topple to the floor. She peppers my face with kisses before pressing her lips to mine for a deep kiss.

“Does this mean you’ll marry me?” I ask, hopeful.

“Yes! Yes, I’ll marry you,” she says with tears in her eyes.

It’s my turn to crush my lips to hers. We lose ourselves in the kiss, sealing our promise to each other. When we finally part, I slide the diamond onto her finger. She admires the emerald cut stone for a second then she’s kissing me again.

She tugs my shirt up over my head, then starts working on my pants. I nearly rip her dress in my desperation to get her naked and underneath me. She gasps when I rip her lace panties straight off.

“Hey—” her protest is cut off when I bury my face between her legs.

I eat her like a starved man. I lick her until she’s a panting mess and pushing my head away from her sensitive clit. I strip off the rest of my clothes and sink into her heat. We make love right there on the floor of the private room, not even taking the time to move to the bed. I take her until we are both fully sated.

“Wow,” she says, breathless. “Engaged sex is the best.”

I chuckle. “Just wait for married sex.”

EPILOGUE

Addy—Six months later

“Doesn’t your mommy look pretty?”Pelar asks Henry, who looks adorable in his mini-tuxedo.

“She looks like a princess.”

I run my hands down my wedding dress, smoothing out non-existent wrinkles. As the minutes tick down to time to walk down the aisle, my anxiety grows. I’ve been anxious since last night when Axel kissed me goodnight and went to his own hotel room.

Even though I’ve done this all before, he insisted on doing it right and following all the typical traditions. I would’ve been happy going to the courthouse and having a small reception after. He wouldn’t hear of it though. He wants me to have the whole experience.
