money wave," I explained. "Plus, I have the benefit of knowing what companies are going to be successful as well as upcoming world events."
    "You said billionaires , right?" Tony asked. "With a B?"
    "Yup," I replied, laughing at the look on his face. "Definitely with a B. Gotta dream big, right?" I left him standing in the parking lot with his mouth hanging open as I went to go pay for our room.
    I unlocked the door to our room and peered inside. It was small, but clean. It was a good place to start our future together on the run.
    "Wait a second," Tony said, catching my arm before I could step into the room. "We might as well do this right."
    I frowned slightly and then shrieked with delight as he picked me up into his arms and carried me over the threshold as if I were weightless.
    "I thought that was just for newlyweds," I said as he closed the door, still holding me in his arms. He nuzzled my neck, his lips sending shivers of desire down my spine.
    "I guess I'm just getting ahead of myself," he said quietly. "Would you marry me?" He pulled back and looked at me. His brown eyes were warm and full of want. Being held by him made my mouth water, and his question made my heart skip a beat.
    "Yes!" I meant to shout it, but my voice came out as a whisper. It was all I had ever wanted since I met him. He was my perfect partner, my soul mate. "A million times yes!"
    He chuckled and set me on the bed. With gentle fingers, Tony slid the strap of my shirt off my shoulder. I felt goosebumps cascade down my arm, the fires of desire starting to burn within me.
    He chuckled and set me on the bed. I quickly kicked off my shoes and socks, tossing them across the room. Tony laughed and did the same. With gentle fingers, Tony slid the strap of my shirt off my shoulder. I felt goosebumps cascade down my arm, the fires of desire starting to burn within me. He nipped gently at my skin, kissing his way down the bare flesh of my arm.
    With a surprising speed, he reached down and pulled the tank-top up and over my head. I shook my hair free, looking up at him. He stepped back, his pupils dilating as he took me in.
    "You are so beautiful, Ladybug." His words were quiet, almost as if he had meant to think them but had spoken them instead. A rush of adrenaline went through me as he looked his fill. His entire expression was one of pure, raw desire.
    I looked pointedly at his shirt, and he grinned. Taking the bottom hem in his fists, he twisted the red fabric up and over his head to reveal his torso. He was all hard planes and muscle. And it wasn't just his muscles that were hard. His jeans were nearly bursting with his excitement.
    I licked my lips, wanting to taste his body. Everything about him was sexy and my body was calling out for his. Something deep inside of me was screaming to have him.
    "Don't tease." Tony's voice was low and full of masculine need. It sent thrills through me.
    "Who says I'm teasing?" I replied, slithering off the bed and onto my knees in front of him. My fingers traced the strong V-shape peeking out of the top of his jeans. His skin was smooth but the muscles taught and hard. I undid his belt buckle and slowly undid the the button and zipper. I took my time, letting the anticipation build.
    He let out a low groan as I pulled his pants free. I caressed the bulge in his boxers, watching the muscles of his stomach tighten. He put his hands in my hair. I looked up as I slid the cotton boxers down. His eyes burned with desire as they watched my every move. I pushed his clothing down to his ankles and he kicked them to the side, his eyes never leaving mine.
    "Now I've got to show you what else I learned in the future." I kissed the tip of his very impressive erection and grinned up at him. I slid one finger down the length of his shaft, making his low reply unintelligible.
    I grabbed his hips and pushed him back onto the bed. He landed with an ungraceful bounce, but he propped himself up on his elbows. I relished the sight of
