Atticus (steele Protectors 2)

Page 12

by Carole Mortimer


  No, she really wasn’t. Seamus O’Malley was a law unto himself, as unstoppable as the ebb and flow of the Atlantic Ocean onto the beach outside her cottage.

  She flung her arms around Atticus’s wide shoulders. “I love you, Atticus, and yes I will marry you. Will you marry me?”

  His brows rose. “Didn’t I just ask you that?”

  She gave a teasing smile. “And now I’m telling and asking you the same thing.” She sobered. “I love you so very much, Atticus. I always have. I always will. I would be honored to become your wife.”

  “Thank God,” Atticus breathed shakily as he hugged her to him tightly. “I’m not sure what I would have done if you had said no,” he explained at her questioning glance.

  Jenna chuckled. “Probably thrown me over your shoulder caveman-style before carrying me into the cottage and making love to me until I said yes.”

  “What a great idea.” Atticus bent slightly so that he could put his shoulder against Jenna’s abdomen. He tilted her forwards over his shoulder before straightening and walking toward the cottage.

  “But I already said yes!”

  “Let’s pretend you didn’t and go with the ‘making love to you until you say yes’ idea.” He threw open the door to the cottage and stepped inside.

  “The bedroom is the door to the left at the top of the stairs,” Jenna supplied.

  Atticus kicked the door shut behind them. “We have a week before we’re expected back for the last few days before Logan and August’s wedding.” He took the stairs two at a time. “Then we can start organizing our own wedding.”

  A whole uninterrupted week of loving and being loved by Atticus, before they returned to England and started organizing their own wedding?

  It sounded like heaven to Jenna.

  Their heaven.
