head back as she licked every inch of my erection with her soft warm tongue. She rolled her tongue

around the tip like she was eating an ice cream cone before gently wrapping her mouth around me and

sliding the head against the roof of her mouth. I was already on the verge of exploding. After she had

taken me in her mouth, she began slow even bobs. I started to thrust my hips back and forth and fist

her hair as her sucking increased. She took her hand and gently stroked my balls. I groaned as my

breathing became rapid, and I was ready to come. “Ellery, I’m going to come,” I warned her in case

she didn’t want me to explode in her mouth. She didn’t stop, and I yelled her name as I released

myself. That was the best I’ve ever had because it came from the woman I love. Once I was done, she

released her mouth and looked up at me. I knelt down and cupped her face as I kissed her

passionately. We spent the rest of the night in bed having sex, discussing plans for Christmas, and

drinking wine. Everything was perfect and just as it should be.

Chapter 25

I opened my eyes and noticed Ellery wasn’t in bed. I thought that was odd because I’m always the

first one up. Today’s the day I am proposing to her, and I couldn’t be more nervous. Denny had sent

me a text last night and assured me everything was set and in place. I pulled the white box with the

pink satin bow from under the bed and hid it behind my back as I walked towards Ellery to where she

was standing in the kitchen.

She looked at me and smiled. “What are you hiding, Mr. Black?”

I smiled back and kissed her on the lips. “A present for you,” I said as I handed her the box. She

opened it and pulled out the white, spaghetti strap sundress that I’d picked out for her back in New

York.

“I’m taking you to dinner tonight, and I want you to wear it.”

“I love it,” she smiled as she kissed me. “But what’s so special about dinner tonight?”

“It’s our last night in California until next month, and I want it to be special, especially since

tomorrow is Christmas Eve.”

“You’re so sweet,” she said as she hugged me.

I picked her up and swung her around. “I know something else I can give you that’s sweet,” I

smiled as I carried her to the bedroom and made love to her.

I sent a text to Denny to make sure he was outside, waiting with the limo. I made sure I had

everything, including the ring. “Come on, babe; we’re going to be late for our reservation!” I shouted

across the apartment.

“Excuse me, but if you recall, I was just getting out of the shower when you decided to push me

back in,” she smiled as she emerged from the bedroom. I gasped when I saw her in the white

sundress. She looked as beautiful as an angel that fell from the sky. “You look absolutely beautiful,

baby,” I said as I held out my arm to her. “Thank you, my love,” she smiled. Damn that smile.

We walked outside, and she was surprised to see a limo parked at the curb. I opened the door for

her, and I heard her gasp as she slid in the back seat.

“Denny, what are you doing here?”

He turned and looked at her with a smile. “It’s good to see you, Ellery.”

“Why is Denny driving us in California?” she asked as I sat next to her.

“I need to blindfold you,” I smiled.

“Don’t you think that’s a little too kinky with Denny here?” she said.

“Trust me; we’ll be using this in the bedroom, but for now, where I’m taking you is a surprise, and

I don’t want you to know until we get there,” I said as I took out a black cloth and covered her eyes.

“Are you ok?” I asked.

“Except for being incredibly turned on, yes,” she smiled.

We arrived at the beach, and I helped Ellery out of the limo. We walked a few feet and then I

stopped, bent down, and removed her shoes from her feet.

“You’re full of kinky surprises tonight, Mr. Black,” she smiled.

“Trust me, Ellery, you’ll love this.” I picked her up and carried her to the sand. I gently put her

down and asked her if she knew where we were. She guessed it, so I removed the blindfold from her

eyes. She stood there and looked around to see a white canopy, sitting in the middle of the beach.

“Is it just us here tonight?” she asked.

I smiled as I kissed her softly on the cheek. “Yes, baby; I rented out the entire beach just for us.”

I took her hand and led her down the beach to the white canopy. Inside the canopy, sat a round

table, draped in white linen, white roses, and two chairs covered in white fabric. She stood there,

taking it all in and the beauty of it all. “Connor, how and when did you do all this?”

“Do you like it?” I asked as I kissed her hand.

“I love it; you’re so amazing,” she smiled.

“Dinner will be here soon, so I thought we could take a walk along the water.”

I took her hand as we walked along the edge of the shoreline; the water hitting our feet. I stopped

and pointed to the sky. “Look over there; the sun is starting to set.”

I felt an overwhelming sense of peace and comfort at that moment, and I believe Ellery felt it as

well. Now was the perfect time to propose to her. I took her hands and held them as I faced her,

taking in a deep breath.

“Ellery, from the first moment I saw you, I knew instantly that I needed you in my life, and I set out

to make sure that happened. You kept calling me a stalker, and you were right; I did stalk you, but for

good reason. You’re different from anyone that I’ve ever met. You’re strong, kind, good-hearted,

forgiving, and loving. You’re also incredibly stubborn, a smart ass, and very independent, and that’s

everything I love about you. You’ve certainly given me a run for my money since I’ve met you.

You’ve challenged me and brought out a man that I thought I never could be. You’ve shown me things

that I never would’ve seen if you weren’t in my life. You’ve filled the void in my heart and soul that I

never knew existed until you weren’t by my side.” Tears began to fall down her face.

“I was simply a man with no meaning until I met you, and I’m proud of whom I’ve become because

of you. We’ve been through a lot together, and we will continue to go through a lot, but we’ll conquer

whatever life throws our way, together. I want to thank you for being my best friend, and my lover.” I

got down on one knee and pulled the small velvet box from my pocket. I looked up at Ellery as the

tears wouldn’t stop flowing down her face. “I want to be more than just your lover; I want to be your

happily ever after, your best friend, your husband, and I want you for my wife. Will you marry me,

Ellery Lane?” I opened the box, took out the ring, and held it up to her.

She looked at me, crying as she nodded her head. “Yes, Connor; I will marry you.”

A large grin grew upon my face as I put the ring on her delicate finger and stood up, hugging her

and twirling her around. We kissed passionately and then I had her look up at the sunset. “I wanted to

propose here because I figured you’d want your mom to be here with us.” She put her hand on my

cheek as I wiped away her tears. I smiled as we watched the sunset.

When dinner was ready and being served, I took Ellery’s hand and led her back to the canopy. We

sat down and ate great food. We talked and laughed, and she occasionally cried, but they were tears

of happiness. I held her hand across the table as she stared at her ring. “It’s so beautiful, Connor.”

“A beautiful ring for a beautiful woman,” I said as I got up and took her hand in mine, leading her

to the large white tent that was filled with fluffy pillows and blankets.

A huge grin crossed her face as she entered the tent. “Sex on the beach?” she asked.

“Yes, sex on the beach,” I nodded with a smile.

I slid the spaghetti straps off her shoulders, allowing her entire dress to fall to her feet. She stood

there in only white lace panties as my tongue traveled across her neck and up her jaw line before

joining my mouth with hers.

“I want to make love to you all night; first here, and then at home in every room. When you walk

tomorrow, you’ll be reminded of our passionate night; one that I never want you to forget,” I

whispered. I laid her down on the soft pillows as she watched me take off my shirt, pants, and boxers.

She stared at me with a hunger in her eyes. I bent down and laid myself on my side, propped up on my

elbow as I softly stroked her beautiful breasts, paying special attention to each hardened nipple. She

ran her hand through my hair and brought my head closer for a kiss. Our lips grew hot as our tongues

were reunited with each other. My hand traveled up and down her torso and into her lace panties,

feeling the wetness from her arousal.

“Christ, Ellery, you’re so wet,” I moaned. My lips broke from hers as I kissed each breast, making

my way down to her belly button and kissing her softly between her inner thighs. I gently inserted my

finger inside her, feeling the wetness before inserting another. She gasped at the pleasure and arched

her back for me to go deeper. My tongue ran circles around her clit, forcing her to release her

pleasure to me. I quickly placed my mouth where my fingers had been, sucking lightly and licking

every sensitive area. I brought my mouth up to hers and gave her a taste of what I love so much. She

reached down and took me in her hand, stroking the length of me with long soft strokes. I let out a

groan as I was lightly licking behind her ear.

“Connor, I need you inside me now. Please, I need to feel you,” she begged.

I moaned from hearing her say those words as I turned her on her stomach and entered her slowly

from behind. “Is this how you want me?” I asked.

“Yes,” she whispered.

I sat up and moved fluently in and out of her. I reached my hand around the front of her delicious

body and grabbed her breasts, squeezing them and pinching at each nipple before moving my hand

down and rubbing her clit. She was moaning and wanting more.

“Don’t come just yet, baby, I need you to come with me.”

“Harder, Connor; fuck me harder, right now!” she demanded.

I took in a sharp breath as I moved faster in and out of her at a faster pace. I was close to exploding

as she screamed my name, and I felt her orgasm. “Ah,” I said as I pushed myself deeper into her,

releasing all my pleasure into her body. I planted small kisses up and down her back before

collapsing on her. My heart was rapidly beating as I was trying to catch my breath.

“I love you,” she whispered.

“I love you too, baby.”

We spent a couple more hours in the tent, drinking wine, and talking. Then as promised, we made

love in every room back at her apartment. It was the best night that we’ve ever spent together, and the

happiest. As we lay together in bed, I held her hand, rubbing my thumb over her ring. It looked

beautiful sitting on her finger.

“You’re mine now; I hope you realize that,” I said to her.

“I was yours from the moment you asked me what my name was,” she smiled.

I brought her hand up to my lips as I softly kissed her ring. We were both exhausted and drifted off

into a deep sleep.

***

The Christmas holiday was beautiful and well spent with family and friends. Ellery and I spent

New Year’s Eve hosting a party at the Waldorf Hotel with about 200 people. We rented a room for

the night and rang in the New Year by making passionate love.

“What’s wrong, babe?” I asked. I could tell something was bothering her.

“What makes you think something’s wrong?” she asked as she looked up at me.

“I can tell when something’s bothering you,” I said as I lightly smiled and ran my finger across her

lips. “Talk to me, Ellery; tell me what’s on your mind.”

“What if this clinical trial doesn’t help me?” she asked.

“It will help you.”

Ellery sat up and turned towards the edge of the bed, letting her feet hit the floor. “You can’t be so

sure of that, Connor.”

I sat up and clasped her shoulders. “I can be sure because I have faith. It’s a new year, and a new

beginning for us, for our future, and nothing’s going to take that away. You will get better, and we’ll

be married and have the rest of our lives in front of us. Speaking of our future, there’s something I

want to talk to you about.” She turned and faced me. I smiled at her as I pushed her hair behind her

ear and softly stroked her cheek.

“I’ve made an appointment with my doctor to have my vasectomy reversed.”

“What? Connor, no, you can’t,” she said.

I looked at her and was surprised at her reaction. “Listen to me; I want this because I want a family

with you, and if we can have our own child, that would be amazing. I’m not saying it’ll work, but

there’s a 50/50 chance, and I think we should try it.”

“But my genes suck, and you know it,” she sighed.

I laughed and planted a kiss on her forehead. “Your genes are beautiful.”

“I guess I’m just scared,” she whispered.

“Don’t worry, baby. Everything is going to work out; you just wait and see,” I said right before we
