like we make a good team.”
“Don’t go getting any ideas, my heart couldn’t stand another repeat of yesterday.” Arms pulled her into the security of his embrace.
“I’ll promise so long as you can keep yourself out of trouble.”
“And if I don’t will you be their everyday to nag me into submission ?”
“Nag, bitch, moan, you name it.”
“Hmm, I rather like the idea of you moaning, preferably with me buried deep inside you.”
“Really?” A picture formed in her mind and it was enough to start heat rising in her body.
“Yes, in fact in a couple days I plan to show you exactly how much I like it.”
“No time like the present, but first what question did you have?”
Silence followed as Ramj’s arms tightened around her waist.
“Um… I know this is sudden… and you have a li fe in the human world… and you ’re a modern independent woman … and that-.”
“This is all leading up to a question right?” she interjected.
Ramj let his arms drop taking a step back until she could see if face clearly . “I want you to stay here. Join with me, build a family, and allow me to love you.”
She was speechless. She’d hoped he’d say he wanted to continue their relationship and that things weren’t over because the case was solved. What she didn’t expect was a marriage proposal. At least she thought it was a proposal.
“If you need more time.”
“Why?” The question in the back of her mind flowed without hesitation. “Why do you want me to stay? By anyone’s standards we don’t really know each other.”
“I’m not thinking about others or their opinions, I’m going with my heart and it’s telling me I would be a fool to let you walk out of my life.”
Her knees felt weak at his declaration.
“I’ve never been one to let my emotions control m e but maybe i t’s because I’ve never experienced what I have with you. I’d be more than happy to stay, if you allow me to love you in return?”
H is answering kiss spoke volumes which was good because the last thing on her mind was more talking, or even thinking.
