Our emotions.

Until he whispers at the shell of my ear, “I love you, Mrs. Wolf.”

He makes me feel…

Whole again.

CHAPTER30

Brooklyn

“Ilove you.” He smiles with his eyes as we celebrate our fathers having mug shots taken and my own resigning from his position at the university. It was a forced resignation and long overdue.

It’s been a long three months, but it was worth it.

Before I know it, I’m stepping into a brand-new Mercedes luxury convertible. A gift from Ronan.

“You love it?” he asks me as he slips into the passenger seat.

“Uh, yeah,” I answer, loving how the leather slips under my palms. “I love it, and I love you.”

He’s distracted me these past few months with gifts and plans for our big night and our honeymoon.

Our wedding is right around the corner.

With the key in my hand and Ronan beside me, with a devilsh smile, I can’t wait to officially be Mrs. Wolf. I’ve never felt this kind of joy and happiness, and … freedom. It feels liberating to be done with what was, and to know whatever is to come is in my control, and it’ll come with a happily ever after. We have our whole future to look forward to.And that’s all I really want. That’s the only gift I need: a life beside this man.

The adrenaline pumping wildly through my veins is a feeling I never forget. I feel every roar of the car as my foot eases down on the clutch. Popping the shifter into reverse, I back out of his garage.

“Holy shit!” I exclaim. “This is amazing!”The more I drive, the further my heart fucking soars, being with the man I love.

I quickly shift into second, then third, tearing down the street and gun it onto the highway. I watch in astonishment as I downshift to first, fishtailing out onto an old, abandoned road. The only sounds that can be heard are the squealing tires.

It’s such a thrill.

I’m hot, burning up as my heart races.

A part of it is from the engine, and the other is from Ronan. The rush surges through my veins.

The next thing I know, he orders, “Spread your legs for me, my little whore.”

“What?”

When I don’t move fast enough, he does it for me. Reaching over, he slides his hand between my thighs.

“I’m going to do two of my favorite things at once, watch you drive this sports car and make you come.”

Halting all the air in my lungs, I suck in a breath as soon as he starts rubbing my clit. I downshift, jerking the wheel to make a sharp right turn. The car slides, and my head falls back as his skillful fingers continue to work me over.

The engine hums as I shift into a lower gear, and he slides his finger inside me at the same time. The adrenaline coursing through me releases endorphins, skyrocketing my entire body and bringing me to a new high.

It takes over all my senses and my entire being. My chest heaves, and I try to catch my breath.

“Oh God…” I pant as he hits my G-spot over and over again.

I pull over on the vacant road in an instant, letting my head fall back as my legs tremble.

“Let’s see what this baby can do,” Ronan rasps, and I don’t know if he’s referring to me or the car, but right now, we’re both trembling.
