“We’re going to have a fucking amazing life,” she declares.
“Let me make it official,” I say.
She knits her eyebrows together in confusion.
I let go of her hands and fish for the little red box hidden in my pocket.
Her breath hitches when I pull it out.
I open the box and present it to her.
“Holy eye-popping diamond ring!” she exclaims. “That’s gorgeous!”
“I got a little help from a certain redhead,” I admit.
“Well, said redhead knows me too well,” she laughs.
“You like it?” I ask.
“Levi, it’s perfect.”
Music to my ears.
I pull out the ring and take her hand in mine.
We’re both grinning like fools as I slip the dazzling ring on her finger.
She lifts her hand to eye level.
“I’ll need to walk around with bodyguards from now on,” she jokes. “This rock is enormous!”
I got her an exquisite, brilliant round diamond center with a swirling halo of smaller diamonds, with additional diamonds on the split, crisscross shank. Yeah, I went all out.
“It’s tiny compared to my love for you,” I proclaim.
She leaps from the chair into my arms.
I catch her and cover her face with kisses before finding her lips.
The blazing kiss is fire.
Passion.
Love.
