  My shining eyes probably betray just how happy I’m feeling inside. I can hardly contain myself. I cling to Evan’s arm possessively because I never want to let him go. He’s mine now, and I love that he’s mine. I’m not trying to keep anyone away from him, I just want the world to know he belongs to me. I haven’t really ever had anyone that’s mine before and I like how it feels.

  “We had such a good night,” I declare gleefully. “Thank you so much for having Liam.”

  “Yeah, how was Liam? Did he give you any trouble getting to bed?”

  Nancy gives Liam a look. “You’re acting like I haven’t been putting him to bed forever!”

  “I know, I know, I’m sorry.” He shakes his head and rubs his eyes. “I’m just… I don’t know a little crazy at the moment. It’s like I’m obsessed with everything that he does.”

  “I know you are and that’s understandable.” Nancy’s lips purse into a tight line, I get the impression that she’s still having a lot of guilt over the car accident which clearly wasn’t her fault. I understand why she feels bad, it’s worse with Evan than anyone else, but I wish I could take that guilt from her. It isn’t fair for her to feel it. “But Liam is a good kid, you don’t have to worry so much.”

  I wander into the living room as Evan sorts out Nancy’s payment for the night and I think about actually living here for real. I mean, it won’t be much different since I haven’t left much since my time at the hospital, and over time most of my stuff has migrated over to Evan’s home, but this will be official. I won’t have anywhere to escape to if things go wrong… not that I can see that happening. It’s just lucky that I don’t have any emotional attachment to my apartment at all, so it isn’t going to be any sort of upheaval. I’ve done a lot more living at Evan’s house anyway. I think I’d be much less inclined to ever leave here. That would hurt me, then I think I’d be upset.

  I fall onto the couch and stare up at the ceiling with a smirk playing on my lips. I feel like the cat who got the cream, and as I hear the sound of the front door closing behind Nancy, that sensation intensifies. Me and Evan have been heavily flirting all night long and it’s churned all kinds of things up in me. I just know that I’m in for a good night and this will be even better because now me and Evan love one another and we’re moving in together. It’s solid, set in stone.

  “Hey there, gorgeous.” My eyes fly open as I hear Evan’s delicious voice. “Looking good.”

  “Oh yeah?” I move up from the couch and start walking towards Evan with a sway in my hip. The burning in my loins intensifies and screams out for attention. “Well I have to say that you’re looking good too.” I reach forward and grab the sides of his jacket, yanking him towards me. “Very handsome, I’ve been waiting to get my hands on you all night long.”

  I pull him towards me and kiss him hard. My arms loop around his neck and I hold him in place as I dart my tongue between his lips. A groan rumbles in the back of my throat and bursts into his mouth which causes Evan to wrap his arms around me. With his hands on the small of my back everything burns brighter. I need him, I feel like if I don’t have him I’ll die.

  “Shall we go up to your bedroom?” I ask him quietly, but the desperation is evident.

  “Oh my God, yes. But it isn’t my bedroom. It’s our bedroom now. Don’t you forget that.”

  “Of course.” I slap my forehead in mock horror. “Sorry, that’s going to take some time getting used to. Do you want to take me to our bedroom?” The words cause a shiver to tear up and down my spine. “Yep, our bedroom. I have to admit I like that a whole lot more.”

  “Then yes, I will take you to our bedroom, you sexy little minx.”

  He takes my hand and tugs me towards the stairs, and as we go my heart flutters in my chest. The butterflies flap violently in my stomach and it feels so good. I tiptoe up the steps behind Evan, feeling all sexy and feminine as I go. I love the way I feel with Evan, it’s so much fun. I feel like I’m a flower blossoming into life, I feel like I’m becoming the person I was always supposed to be.

  Once we reach the top of the stairs, Evan yanks my arm and pulls me around to him, flattening me against his thick, muscular chest. The feel of his abs against my skin causes a red hot flush to run all over me. His strong body reminds me that now he wants to take care of me, and I like that a lot. No one has ever wanted to take care of me before, and I surprisingly like it more than I thought I would.

  “You are so beautiful,” Evan comments idly. “And I love you so much.”

  Ooh those words, I love hearing them so damn much. They encase me in a deep warmth that is like no other. “I love you too,” I reply in a whisper. “I love you, Evan Debroils.”

  With that we continue moving into the bedroom, kissing frantically all the way. The pretty party dress that I put on before mine and Evan’s big night out whips up over my head, and I tear Evan’s shirt off and tug his trousers down. By the time, we actually get to the bed we’re both panting desperately, only in our underwear. I have a black silky bra and panties set on that I purchased especially because I like the way that it offsets my milky skin, and Evan has some sexy, tight, navy blue boxers. The way that the moonlight glistens through the window reflects off his body wonderfully.

  “My God, I’m lucky,” Evan gasps as he moves back to me. “So, fucking lucky.”

  His arms swoop around me and he throws me back onto the bed. As he climbs onto the bed and he hovers over me, I feel myself writhe with a sheer deep thrill. Sometimes this thing I have with Evan feels completely normal, and sometimes it takes me by surprise that someone so gorgeous could be attracted to me. I still think of myself as the plain, washed out lawyer who doesn’t deserve any eyes looking at me. It’s hard to get myself out of that mindset.

  Evan’s lips crash down onto my body, all over my cheeks and down towards my neck. While he kisses my collar bone he reaches behind my back to unhook my bra. It’s strapless, so it flies from my body easily, revealing my rock hard nipples that are crying out for attention. Luckily Evan can see that they need attention, because he moves his mouth over one, taking it between his lips and sucking hard, and he grabs my other breast with his other and he flicks his thumb all over it.

  “Oh shit,” I groan while rolling my hips into him. I can feel his thick erection in his underwear waiting for me, and I want more of it. He feels so good. “Oh, Evan.”

  As he pulls his mouth off of me, I push myself into a sitting position, then I flip Evan over until he’s lying on his back. While he’s still wide eyed and in shock, I run my fingers along the waistband of his pants, taunting him with what’s going to happen next. As he groans and writhes, I run my tongue along my top lip. Then, just as his hips buck towards me, I dip my hand in and I grip tightly onto his shaft, gasping with excitement as I do.

  “Oh fuck, Katy, you are a fucking expert with your hand.”

  I don’t know if that’s true, but it spurs me on. I run my hand from the base to the tip, trying to touch every inch of him. The lust filled expression on his face kills me, it’s almost too much. It makes me wetter and hotter than ever before. It’s almost hotter than if he was touching me…

  I can’t stand it anymore, I need him. I don’t even think about it, I just pull my panties to one side and I straddle Evan. I slide down over his cock, absolutely loving the sensation of him being inside of me. I don’t even stop to worry about protection, it doesn’t even cross my mind. I’m too busy gripping onto Evan’s hips and riding him like there’s no tomorrow.

  The pressure starts in my toes and tingles through all my veins until it reaches my chest. I can hear myself moaning and groaning, crying out in sheer bliss. I probably should calm down a little bit, I’m getting out of hand but I’m just having the best time of my life. Sex with Evan is phenomenal, I never want it to it… which is why it crushes me when Evan pulls out just as I feel myself on the brink of exploding.

  “Come with me,” Evan growls, taking my hand. “I want to show you the view.”<
br />
  I’m admittedly confused, but judging by the heavy lidded look that Evan is giving me I feel sure that it’s a plan so I agree to it and follow me. I stand naked in front of Evan’s window, glancing down at his garden below. Evan positions himself behind me and he pushes me forward slightly until my hands are pressed up against the cold glass. The heat of them makes a print.

  Once in that position, Evan slowly and tantalizingly pulls my panties down. Once they hit the floor I kick them away and I spread my legs apart for him. Evan angles himself and thrusts himself back into me, knocking the wind from my body completely. Then once he settles himself into a steady rhythm he moves one of his hands around to the front of me and he flicks my clit rapidly.

  “Oh my God,” I grunt as he sends me back to the heavenly place I was only moments before. “Evan, you are just too much.”

  My whole body vibrates with lust, it’s as if Evan is absolutely everywhere. My head spins, the bliss grows, and Evan just keeps on thrusting, driving himself in deeper and deeper.

  “Evan,” I gasp as the pleasure shatters through my body, whipping my breath away clean from my body. “Oh my God, Evan.”

  The bliss shatters me, I can barely hold myself upright. It’s only Evan’s hands fixed around my waist that’s keeping me standing. He’s holding me through the pleasure, supporting me, loving me with everything that he has. As the orgasm tears through me, I feel so close to him, and I love that.

  Chapter Twenty Nine – Evan

  “How are you doing, son?” I ask Liam while I ruffle his hair. “Are you enjoying the day?”

  “Yeah, I am, Daddy, but I wish Katy was here.” He pouts out his lip and crosses his arms over his chest in a stubborn gesture. “I don’t like having my birthday party without her.”

  “I know, I know, but you had all your friends around, and that was fun, right? We had those trampolines. You certainly looked like you were enjoying that, and you still have birthday cake all around your mouth.” I wipe his lips. “You’re all covered in chocolate. And you love your new bike.”

  “Yeah I do. Thank you, Daddy, but I miss Katy.”

  It makes me laugh how much Liam loves Katy. He really does adore him. He does have his friends, but I think she might be his best friend ever. That hasn’t changed at all in the six months she’s been living in our home. If anything, their bond has gotten deeper.

  “You know that Katy would have loved to be here but she had a meeting that she couldn’t miss. It’s all linked to her brand new business so it’s all very exciting…”

  “She’s not going to start being at work all the time, is she?”

  “No, no.” I hold Liam’s shoulders so he’ll look at me as I answer this. “The reason that she’s starting her own business is so she doesn’t have to work all the time. It might take a little while to get it all set up, but once she’s done it’ll all be good. I promise that you’ll see her all the time. And don’t forget we’re having our birthday dinner for you in a moment.”

  “Will she have a present for me?” Liam’s eyes lit up as the thought of more toys cheered him right back up again. “Do you think she will? Did she say that she will?”

  “I’m sure she does.” I ruffle his hair again. I don’t seem to be able to stop myself from doing that. “But don’t forget that we have a present for her too. Are you still up for doing that?”

  I bring the small box out of my pocket and I show it to Liam meaningfully. We’ve been talking about this for weeks so I know he’s aware of what I’m on about. He’s always spoken so positively about it, I just hope now he doesn’t change his mind. The only thing that will stop me from going ahead with this is Liam. I’m pretty sure he’s happy, but I need to be certain.

  “I remember.” He nods slowly. “You’re going to ask Katy to marry you. Then you’ll have a big, white wedding. And then… and then she’ll be my new mommy.”

  That causes my breath to catch in my throat. I wasn’t expecting him to say that at all. “Oh, right well I don’t know about that. You do already have a mommy.”

  “But my mommy is in heaven.” I do feel much better that he knows more about Victoria now. It makes things much easier, but it hurts me still every time we have to talk about it. Liam takes it all with so much maturity, but it isn’t fair. He doesn’t deserve this. “And everyone else has a mommy. I want a new mommy for my birthday.”

  I don’t know how Katy will feel about that, but considering how well she’s handled everything so far, I’m sure she won’t mind. “Oh well, she will be like your mommy because she’s married to your daddy.” I’m trying to handle this as tactfully as you can. “But you’ll have to talk to Katy about what you want to call her, okay? That’s up to you and her.”

  “Oh well, Katy won’t mind. Me and her have such fun. She will like it.”

  I smile, knowing that he’s right. I’m sure she will but I don’t want to put words in Katy’s mouth. What happens between her and Liam is between them.

  “Right.” I clap my hands together, snapping into action. “Shall we get the party tidied and get dinner sorted? Of course, you don’t have to do anything since you’re the birthday boy, but someone needs to. So why don’t you go and watch TV while I get everything set up?”

  “No, no, no, I want to help! Let me help you sort it out. I want to. I want to do it for Katy.”

  Sometimes my boy blows me away with his attitude, at moments such as this. He’s such a brilliant child, I’m so glad that I know him now. There’s been so much that I’ve missed out on, but I won’t ever make that mistake again. Now I’m fully on board with this parenting thing.

  “Okay, Liam. You are an awesome kid. Let’s do this.”

  ***

  “Was that her?” Liam whispers secretively to me. “Was that Katy?”

  “You don’t have to be quiet,” I chuckle. “We aren’t doing this as a surprise. Or are we? Actually, that might be a good idea.” I cock my head thoughtfully. “Actually, yeah let’s do it. Let’s hide.”

  Liam dives behind the couch and I join him, giggling madly. It hasn’t escaped my attention that I’m completely the opposite man that I used to be. I used to be all bravado, making business deals and caring only about the office, all the while everything was slipping through my fingers, having meaningless sex with my PA. Now, I’m laughing like a loon with my boy, waiting for the woman that I love, with a big diamond ring in my pocket. What a turn around of events.

  “Yep, that’s her,” Liam whispers loudly to me as the door swings open. “She’s coming.”

  “Let me know when you’re ready to jump up, will you?” I reply. “Say the word.”

  “Hello?” Katy calls through the house. “Is anyone there? Hello?” We can hear her moving through the rooms. She’s probably wondering what the hell happened at Liam’s party and why we’re suddenly nowhere to be found. I feel a bit mean since I know how much she wanted to come to the party, but I’m sure she’ll forgive me by the end of the night. “Hello? Liam? Evan?”

  “Let’s go now,” Liam whispers. We both leap up rapidly and yell “surprise!”

  “Oh my God.” Katy clutches her hand to her chest in shock, dropping all her papers as she does. “You scared me there, guys. Are you two completely mad?”

  Luckily she’s laughing, and as Liam wraps his arms around her, her face completely melts. I shoot her an apologetic look but she doesn’t seem to need it.

  “So how did your meeting go?” I ask her over Liam’s head. “Was it positive?”

  “It was, really positive. I mean it was awesome, I’m really happy about it.” She blows out a deep and weary breath. “So, I mean I’ll tell you all about it in the morning I think. Right now, I just want a drink. Oh!” She reaches into her bag and pulls out a nicely wrapped gift. “I suppose I better give this to the birthday boy as well.”

  Liam screeches with excitement and he takes the gift from her, unwrapping it at the speed of light. He quickly finds another superhero toy in there which of co
urse fills him with utter excitement. He races around the room with it in his hand making it zoom.

  “I think he likes it,” I say while hooking my arm around Katy’s waist and pulling her in for a kiss. “Good choice by the way. Oh, and we have a dinner for you. A birthday dinner that’s waiting in the dining room.”

  “Oh, that sounds lovely, I’m starving.” She rubs her stomach happily. “And it smells home cooked. What is it?”

  I don’t answer her, I just take her hand and lead her into the kitchen. Liam has scattered rose petals all over the floor, in a bit of a haphazard way, and there are champagne flutes on the table, one with apple juice in for Liam, and candles lit. The food is there too, but that’s the least important bit.

  “Oh my goodness, this is lovely.” Katy furrows her eyebrows in obvious confusion. “Am I forgetting something? Is it like an anniversary or something? If so I’m sorry. I’ve just been so…”

  “It’s not an anniversary.” I glance towards Liam and I can see that he’s bursting with the news. I know that if I don’t do it now he’ll end up ruining the surprise for me, so I tug the ring box out of my pocket and I fall to one knee on the floor in front of Katy. “But I might be about to make it one.”
