Chloe nipped his earlobe, teeth grazing his skin as she hugged him tight. “Ryder, we’ve been just the two of us for three nights straight. It’s about time we hit the town, don’t you think? Show these guys a good time.”
He raised a brow, giving her his best impression of a sad puppy. When that didn’t work he tried glowering, but she only laughed at him and kissed him
“We can paint the town red and still have fun later,” she murmured. “Besides, I have a rock to show off.”
Chloe wiggled her finger in his direction, admiring her ring. “You got me,” he said. “Three hours tops though, then you’re all mine. Deal?”
“Hmmm, when you say deal…”
“I’m not bettinganythingagainst you, Chloe. Not now, not ever. I’ve learned my lesson damn good.” In fact, he wasn’t going near a betting table without her by his side and on his team. When it came to gambling Chloe had him beat every time.
“Deal, then,” she agreed, looping her arms around his neck and leaning back when he picked her up and slung her across his arms. “But if there’s space in the big game room at the Bellagio tonight…”
He chuckled and pressed a kiss to her lips. “It’s our wedding night, darlin’. You want to play poker, then that’s what we’ll do.”
“You know, I hated Vegas a few months ago, and because of you I love the place again.” She sighed and gazed up at him. “And to think you were just a hot cowboy I checked out at the rodeo one afternoon, huh?”
“Happy to be of service,” he told her, carrying her back down the aisle as his brothers threw way too much confetti at them.
“Oh, you can be of service to me,” she joked. “You’re all mine now, and I plan on putting you to good use.”
Ryder put her to her feet and skimmed his hands down her body, getting hard just thinking about what she had planned for him. He wanted her dress in a puddle at her feet, breasts bare and cupped in his hands, mouth tracing across every inch of her skin. He wanted her moaning his name and naked in his bed for the rest of his life.
“You sound like the perfect wife,” he muttered, running a finger down her chest and circling the top of one breast.
Chloe playfully smacked his hand away and put it around her waist instead. “Oh, I am, cowboy. Just you wait and see.”
