Page 80 of Doctor I Do

I can’t help but grin. The words every guy wants to hear, but only coming from the right person does it matter. And hearing it from her is everything. I don’t even know why the thought of a damn toy being inside her over me made me see red, but it did.

“Good, because you have me now. And I plan on pleasuring my fiancée,” I grunt out between thrusts.

Her legs quiver, and she arches her back as she cries out. “I’m coming!”

My orgasm hits me at full force, causing my vision to spot and her name to leave my lips on a groan.

Both of us are gasping and spent as I drop down beside her.

Once I’ve caught my breath, I press a kiss to her cheek and pull her body flush against mine. And then I sink my face into the crook of her neck, inhaling her scent.

Leaning to kiss the back of her head, I whisper, “Thanks for making me feel something other than numb.”

I hold her tightly. I don’t want to let her go from this position.

“Who knew you just needed to find the right person,” she breathes, laying her arm over mine.

“My person,” I say as I tug her even closer.

She tenses briefly before letting her body go lax in my arms.

Her sweet scent drugs me and helps the heaviness in my body drag me under. Not before I realize I’m at fucking peace.

I wake up deliciously hot from holding her all night. I’ve never thought much about sharing a bed with a woman. But she’s changed that. With her body perfectly in front of mine, with my arms wrapped around her middle, I lavish in it.

I see her twirl the ring around her finger, and I can’t help but grin proudly. I’m fascinated by the sparkles bouncing off it from the morning light. Going to the venue today doesn’t seem so sickening at the moment. I couldn't be fucking happier.

“What are you thinking about?” I ask, watching her drop her hand back to sit on top of mine.

She sinks farther back into me. “How happy I am.”

I love how easily that spilt from her lips. No need to hold back how we feel. Last night, our words were raw and honest, and it opened a new door. I’m still grappling with the idea that we’re in this new happy bubble.

I growl and bury my head in her neck. Her giggle fills the room. And I love it. Her laugh is everything to me. It lightens up my house. It lightens me. Before she lived here, the only noise came from the TV. It was dull and unfulfilling. I never would have known that if she never moved in. I’d still be living the same life…but now, with her here, my life is different. Better. There is a future with possibilities I never dreamed of. Thanks to her.

“You make me happy too,” I say, tugging her so she rolls flat onto her back. My morning erection hits the side of her body. For a split second, I wonder if we have time for a quick round.

“We have to meet my parents today,” she says, as if reading my mind, and I give her a crooked grin.

“Yeah, we should get ready.” I lean in, kissing her with a hot, demanding caress. My hands trail over her warm bare skin, and my dick twitches with excitement.

She hums in delight and disconnects our lips. “If we shower together, we could help wash each other.”

I chuckle gruffly. “Is that code for sex? Because if it is, I’m down for that.”

A full smile opens on her face and a flush coats her neck and cheeks. I get out of bed, and scoop her up effortlessly, she gasps.

“Put me down,” she says with a wiggle, but there’s no fight.

She’s secretly enjoying this. And so am I.

“No. I’m practicing for our wedding night,” I say, looking at her with a newfound intensity, reminding me that our wedding night is right around the corner.

“Well, I’m not here to stop you,” she says as I carry her into the bathroom.

Lowering her in front of the shower, I open the door and turn the water on. Then move to set up our towels for when we step out. Her eyes glow as she watches me.

The room fills with steam. Her body is begging to be touched by me.
