“He never shows that to anyone, Bella. I believe you’re the first.”

“I love him,” said Bella.

“I know you do, honey. And he loves you too.”

 

* * *

 

That night, Bella was surprised to come into the guest room after her shower to find candles lit on every available surface, and two glasses of scotch waiting for them on the bedside table.

“Wow, Kane. What’s the occasion?” she asked as she sat down on the bed next to him.

He shrugged, opened his mouth to say something, then closed it again. He seemed nervous, which was so uncharacteristic that Bella almost laughed out loud.

“Are you OK?” she asked, looking into his eyes and laughing.

“Yeah.” He ran a hand through his hair. “This isn’t…” He gestured around the room. “We were supposed to be in a bed and breakfast where, I’ll have you know, I’d paid extra so we’d be the only guests and the owners would vacate the premises for the night. So we could be alone. Not in my mom’s house.”

“So? I love your mom. And it’s gorgeous here, Kane. I’m happy.”

“It’s not what I’d planned.”

“Oh, Kane,” Bella sighed. “I know how much you like to control everything. But sometimes, it’s all right to just let go. We’re comfortable. And we’re together. Even though we have to, you know, keep it down.” She ran a hand down his hard, muscled chest and over his six-pack stomach. When he shifted on the bed, where he was sitting next to her, she knew what he was thinking about.

“Ah, fuck it,” said Kane suddenly, and before Bella knew what was happening, he was on the floor in front of her. On his knees.

“Kane?” she asked, her voice tentative and filled with disbelief.

“Bella, I’ve never… you’re…” he stammered. He never stammered. He was always so sure of himself, so arrogant, and this was new. Different. Endearing.

“I love you, Bella,” he continued. “I’ve never loved a woman before. But you? You’re it. You’ve changed the way I look at the world. Before I met you, I didn’t believe that love existed. I thought it was something people pretended to have. A mere myth, perhaps, that everyone was foolishly buying into. But now? I realize how wrong I was. And I understand that the only way I’ll be truly fulfilled is to have you by my side forever. I want to spend the rest of my life making you the happiest woman on earth. Marry me. Please, Bella.”

“Oh, my god, Kane. Seriously?”

Kane rolled his eyes. “Of course seriously. I wouldn’t joke about something like this!” He pulled a ring out of his pocket and held it out to Bella. The diamond gleamed in the candle light. “It’s the diamond from my grandmother’s ring in a new setting. It’s not extravagant, but it’s… I hope you like it.”

“Kane, I love it! Because it’s from you. And because it means something special. I’m honored.”

“So you will marry me then, Bella?”

“Yes. I will marry you, silly,” said Bella.

She held out her hand and Kane slipped the ring onto her finger.

“It’s beautiful,” she whispered. “Thank you.”

“Here,” he said, handing her a jewelry box.

“What’s this?”

“Open it.”

She did, the soft velvety box clicking open and revealing a diamond tennis bracelet nestled in white satin. “Kane! You just gave me an engagement ring! You can’t give me a diamond bracelet too!”

“I can do whatever I want, Bella,” said Kane in a low voice. “For the rest of your life, I plan to spoil you. And punish you. And spoil you some more.”

Bella’s entire body felt warm from emotion and desire and disbelief that this was happening to her. This was real.

Kane clasped the bracelet around Bella’s wrist, then pushed her down onto the bed. He hovered over her, kissing her hair, her forehead, her lips. “Tonight we have to be quiet,” he murmured as he began to undress her slowly. “But when we get back home, I’m going to fuck you every single way possible.”

“I love you, Kane,” Bella whispered, her body arching up to meet his.

“I love you, Bella,” he replied.

Bella closed her eyes, every cell of her body tuned in to Kane’s touch, and every part of her mind aware that her life, forever, was going to be a dream come true.
