“I fucking love you, Lemon. Please, don’t leave, don’t turn your back on me.”
“I was angry at you,” Lemon said. “Then I spent some time with my dad. I went and visited my mother, and then I came to you. I don’t want us to start our lives together because I’m pregnant. I’m not ready to have a baby, but I do want to spend the rest of my life with you.”
He stroked her cheek. “I will never let you down.”
She laughed. “You probably will, but we’re going to be in this together. You and me, against the world.”
“I like the sound of that.”
“Good, I was wondering, did you like your shorts?”
“Loved them.”
Lemon reached into her jacket. “I did make a matching pair. I don’t suppose you’ll model them for me?”
He took them from her, pressing a kiss to her lips. “Just so long as you model what I’ve got for you.”
“And what might that be?”
He reached into his pocket and held out a single diamond engagement ring. The moment he saw it in the shop, he knew it would be perfect for Lemon, for his wife, the mother of his children, and he wanted her to have it.
“Just this, nothing else.”
Her cheeks were a beautiful shade of red, but he loved her like that. For the rest of the day, he intended to do many more things to her that would make her blush.
Epilogue
Six months later
The cursed houses were real.
Lemon stared at the two homes, and she just knew deep in her heart what the locals said about them was true. People who entered were each other’s soulmate. It had to be true. Her father had sold this house months ago, but through one difficulty and another, it had taken a full six months, right on time with Nate’s house to be sold.
She leaned against the hood of Nate’s car as she watched him shake hands with both people.
Seeing as her house had been sold to a man, Nate hadn’t liked the idea of her being alone with him, which was crazy.
The truth was Nate was jealous and she kind of liked it.
Nate gave the two people a wave and then he was heading back to her. She slid off the hood and Nate pulled her in close, kissing her.
The past six months had been the most amazing of her life. She and Nate had moved to one of his secure locations, where he’d shown her the true elements of his life. Her dad was still in the picture. She hadn’t pushed him to one side or anything. They were learning how to get to know one another. It was what her mother would want.
“I think we made a big mistake,” Nate said.
“You do?”
“Yep.” He turned his head and they both looked toward the houses in time to see the girl throw some water at the guy’s face.
“Oh, no. What do you think that is all about?”
“They went to school together and from my research, he was a complete asshole to her.”
Lemon gasped. “Oh, my God, you’re talking a bully? A bully and his victim?”
“Yep, that’s what I’m saying, and no, we’re not going to watch the fireworks on this one, Mrs. Evans. You and I are heading for our honeymoon. The ocean and our private villa are waiting for us. I intend to make love and to fuck you every single day and night for the next two weeks.”
The new couple was forgotten as Nate moved her toward the passenger seat of the car.
As much as she’d love to see how the next couple would work out, she wanted to be fucked by her husband so much more.
