"Luke, I'm going to... " she didn't even get the full sentence out when her pussy squeezes my dick hard and I feel her pussy flood with her juices, making it easy to slide in and out.

"Look at me, babe, watch me as I come inside you." She opens her eyes and looks at me. I thrust a few more times and she's still rubbing her clit and just as I fall over the edge and scream out her name, I feel her squeeze me inside her again.

"Luke, oh my god." She's panting and I can feel the sweat running down my back. I pull out and flop down on the bed next to her. We’re both breathing really hard. Trying to catch our breath.

"Wow," she says, laid on her side and looking at me. She runs her hand over my forehead and pushes my hair back. "Youworked really hard there, Luke. You could have a heart attack." She laughs.

I do too. I feel so relaxed. Normally, I'd be rushing someone out of my place or leaving theirs, not wanting any awkwardness. But not with Emma. In fact, I don't want her to leave. I don't know if we can make this work because she doesn't live here. But I sure want to give it a try.

"Emma, don't leave. Can you stay here for a few days so that we can work on what happens next?" I'm pleading and I hate doing it, but I really need to know if she feels the same as I do.

"Luke, I wasn't going to leave you. I was hoping to become a permanent fixture. I think we've moved passed pleasantries. We fucked in your cabin, then both got shot by a psycho poacher, I was kidnapped and all on our first date."

I laugh and pull her close to me. I kiss her cheek and say, "Wow, how am I going to follow that up for our second date?"

”I think you just did."

EPILOGUE

EMMA

I can't believeI've been living with Luke for nearly a year. It's our anniversary today of meeting and I never expected to find my mountain man soldier this time last year. We had a different kind of introduction to each other than I ever expected in life, but that seems about right for us.

I can work wherever the hell I want to. I just need to travel to find photo opportunities to sell. But I never thought that I’d have my own guide to help me navigate the mountains, valleys, seas and any other place in this world. Luke was discharged with a medical pension, so he didn't have to work. He's really taken to helping me and we work so well together.

Today, we’re walking back up the mountain to our little retreat. Since it was blown up and smashed to pieces, we've done a little bit of remodeling. It's bigger now, giving room for the two of us. It's my slice of heaven where I go to truly switch off from the world. We spend our days hiking, reading, drinking wine, eating good food and fucking. Heaven.

"Hey, soldier boy, wait up. What's the rush? You're moving far too fast for me." Sometimes Luke forgets how small I am and how one of his strides is about two or three for me. But he seemsto be in a hurry. I just walk at my own pace. Hopefully, he’ll have a glass of wine ready for me when I get there.

I finally make it to the cabin, and Luke is standing there with a glass of wine. He knows me too well. The fire is already lit, and he pulls me in for a hug and a kiss.

"Was worried I'd lost you on the way," he says, smiling. "Can you believe it's a year since you pushed your way into my life?" He's deadly serious. I did kind of force myself on him, I guess.

"Best year of my life, babe." I lean up and kiss him. "Best year."

I walk inside and leave my bag in the bedroom. When I walk out, he's down on one knee in front of the fire. "What are you doing, Luke?" I ask. Is he proposing, or is he stoking the fire?

"Emma, stop talking for a minute." He smiles at me and takes my hand. "Emma, you came into my life when I didn't realize I needed you. We went through so much then, more than anyone goes through in a lifetime together. It brought us closer to together. I love you so much. I never thought I’d find someone who was the perfect woman for me. But I did. I found you."

I try to speak, but he just looks at me and I close my mouth and smile.

"I want to marry you and spend the rest of our lives together, traveling the world and taking photos of beautiful things. Will you marry me, Emma?"

I look at him, and he nods. I can speak now. "Luke, oh my god. Oh my god."

He looks at me. "Is that a yes or a no, Emma. I need your words. Will you marry me??"

I drop to the floor so that I can see his face better. "Luke, I love you so much. Yes, yes, yes." I lean forward and let him kiss me as he slides the ring on my finger. I look at the ring and it's so beautiful.

"I didn't get a flashy enormous diamond because I know with the work that we do the clasps might get scratched or damaged. So, I bought one that is a little old fashioned with a flatter setting. I hope you like it." He looks at me and for the first time, I see a look that I've not seen before. He's looking for my approval.

"Luke, this is perfect, and I’m so glad you picked this setting. It's perfect for me. It's perfect for my work and it's perfect because you picked it out for me." We both stand and hug each other tight. "I love you, Luke."

I hear a knock at the door and his parents and my friend, Jules, let themselves in. I look at Luke. "I kind of thought you would say yes, so they've come to celebrate." I laugh so loud. He looks so nervous.

Jules rushes at me when she comes in. I haven't seen her for a few months as we've been out of the country so much.

"Bitch, show me that ring." I thrust my hand up so she can look at it and she squeals really loud. She goes over to Luke. "Thanks for making my girl happy again." She kisses him on the cheek, and he stands there just staring at her.
