Free Do Not Disturb 2 by Violet Williams Page B

what she said. You’re no longer welcome here.”
    A sob escaped from Barbara’s lips, but she didn’t try to dissuade him. Without another word, she gathered the boxes and spun on her heels toward the door. Conrad was still livid, but he realized it was a losing battle and followed his wife from the room.
    Keisha only relaxed when the front door slammed. “What was I thinking?” she groaned, falling into Jake’s open arms.
    Jake held her tight. “You’re a better person than my father ever was or ever will be.”
    She laid her check against his chest. “So you’re not just with me for my warm hole?”
    He traced her spine, his voice laced with lust. “Well a warm hole definitely doesn’t hurt.”
    She shoved him back playfully and turned to the remnants of dinner. “Well, at least we’ll have lots of leftovers.” She turned to the glistening chicken on the stove. “You wanna eat something now?”
    “Actually, I have something I want to ask you.”
    She turned. “What’s-“ Her mouth fell open. She’d dreamt of this moment. Hoped for it. Her heart dropped to the pit of her stomach.
    Jake was on one knee, holding a ring. A diamond ring.
    “You’re everything to me,” Jake said softly. “In you, I found more than love. I found a family. A future. I see forever in you.” He licked his lips. “And I don’t wanna waste one more minute, Keisha. I want forever to start right now.” His eyes bore into her as he said four words that changed everything. “Will you marry me?”
    She sunk to her knees beside him and clasped him to her. He was everything. Everything.
    “Yes,” she cried, tears of joy streaming down her face. “Yes!”
