Donna wasn’t sure how to take Nathan’s particular behavior. She was sure when he passed her he would have collected her or, better yet, kissed her the way she was yearning to be kissed. Instead, he went into the master suite.
He was inviting her to join him in there. Inspecting his demeanor, she saw his sly expression along with his twinkling mischievous eyes. He was up to something...and she wanted to play.
Slowly, she licked her bottom lip and raised one brow in challenge. Then she strolled into the suite and, after he closed the bedroom doors, she turned on him.
Nathan had just finished closing the doors when he turned around to see Donna right up against him.
Seeing his blue eyes, she held his gaze while she ran her hands into his silky blond hair. Resting her hands on his shoulders, Donna reached up on her toes to kiss him. At first, he didn’t kiss her back. She was a little startled, but tried not to let it bother her.
As she was kissing a non-complacent Nathan, she suddenly felt him wrap his arms around her waist and lift her off the floor. Stopping the kiss and being held above the floor, she looked into his challenging eyes. Then with an evil smile he scooped her up and hauled her off to the bed.
As Nathan laid her on the king-sized mattress, she looked up to see him quickly removing his shirt. He was bothered. Donna purred with his removal of clothes; she took the hint and started to remove her top and pants.
He came back to her, only wearing his boxers while she was still in her panties. Donna scurried back onto the bed with a yelp of excitement while Nathan slowly got onto the bed himself. Suddenly, he caught her one leg and pulled her back to him. He growled at her before winking and then slowly ran the hand that was holding her leg up her thigh.
She felt shivers all the way up her body. Feeling her heartbeat pick up, she tried to lie still while Nathan began kissing the skin of her leg. Every once in a while, he would tenderly nibble on her leg before caressing it all the while making his way higher up her body.
With both his hands on her legs and near the spot she would rather Nathan pay special attention to, she was becoming needy and hot with desire. Nathan once again removed her knickers, but this time, he ripped them off. She excitedly yelped as her body soared to a higher level of excitement. She didn’t know how much longer she could take his torture.
“Please, Nathan... I want...you!”
Nathan looked at her with controlled eyes, telling her he was not done with his pleasure. She leaned back when he brought his mouth to her cave.
Donna moaned and arched her back as his tongue did things to her she didn’t think were possible. This time when he was pleasuring her, it was more intimate than their last time. Within minutes of his digging and massaging her inner walls, did her body give way to an onslaught of orgasms.
Nathan was at her stomach by the time she recovered from his treat to her body when she was able to grab hold of his hair. She was glad it was longer than normal. With a fistful of his hair, Donna pulled hard. He stopped what he was doing and looked at her in pain.
“I can’t wait!” she growled.
*****
Swallowing, Nathan smirked at her and brought his body up against hers. Still in his boxers, he had no intention of giving in to Donna so easily. Looking down on her with hungry eyes, he reclaimed her mouth.
He enjoyed tasting her while they made out. Donna was kissing him hard and fast, and he knew she was urging him to take her, but she had told him Josh wouldn’t wake, so he was going to enjoy her all night long. There was no need to hurry.
Massaging one breast, then switching to the other one, he was enjoying himself too much. Suddenly, he felt Donna’s hand between the material of his erection and on the silk of his member. Moaning out load while she squeezed, he then growled and looked dangerously at her.
Pulling off her body and heading for his suitcase where the box of condoms were, he heard, “What are you doing?” in a sultry aroused voice.
He looked over to her flush body. “Getting some condoms.”
While opening up the compartment where he’d stored the box of condoms, she then said, “Why? I might already be pregnant.”
As he looked at her, she was smiling. There was no fear or doubt on her pretty little face. It was almost like she wished it to be true. Standing up tall in his boxers with his erection full and ready, he casually mentioned, “Well if we do have unprotected sex this time—”
“Again,” Donna cut him off, reminding him of their previous affair.
Nathan rolled his eyes to the side, putting a hand on his hip and running his other hand through his hair while standing there as she was naked on the bed. He decided to drive Donna crazy, so he put his hands in the waistband of his boxers and inching them lower before he shook his tight ass just for play. Turning around, Nathan full-mooned her and loved it when Donna cried with yearning.
Shimming out of his boxers, Nathan turned around to face her in all his naked glory. He could see she was driven mad with desire to have him bed her. She was demanding he place his strong shaft into her warm plush cushion of a cave that he was going to call home. It would be all his and no one else’s.
Staring at her, mesmerized, he said, “Marry me, Donna.”
“What?”
“Marry me.”
She was clearly caught off guard. “We don’t know if I am pregnant.”
Standing there away from her reach, he was reveling in her shock. “I don’t care if you’re pregnant. Marry me!” Nathan firmly stated with a gleam in his eye.
“Are you serious?”
“Yes. I’m dead serious!” He smiled affectionately at her. “If it wasn’t for you coming into my life, I don’t know how I would have handled Josh. If it wasn’t for you just being in my life, I don’t think I’d have been able to get past these few weeks, these few months, these last years since I...got out of jail...” To which they both cringed at the word ‘jail.’
A part of Nathan’s life which he’d like to forget and erase.
Donna sat up in the bed with the sheet wrapped around her naked breasts covering the rest of her because she had slipped between the sheets. “Are you proposing to me?”
Nathan came a little closer and put his knee on the bed. “Maybe...but there’s an attached condition.”
Donna looked at him oddly with an excited smile forming on her face. But it sounded like a proposal, she nervously thought.
Nathan slowly crawled onto the bed and was coming closer to Donna in all his naked magnificence. He was hard and ready to take her. But then he suddenly stopped just out of reach.
Donna swallowed.
Then he crept closer before he lowered his nose, touching her nose so he could look deeply into her eyes before leaning in and nipping a small kiss prior to pulling back.
“My condition is...” He licked his lips and came closer to her yet again. “If I have unprotected sex with you tonight, we marry tonight!” Nathan assertively stated his condition.
Donna started giggling and after seeing Nathan’s eyes, she stopped. “You’re serious, right?”
“Why not, baby? We’re in Vegas.”
He was now holding himself directly over her body with the strength of his arms and toes; it was like Nathan was doing a pushup practically over her with his naked body.
She found it sexy as hell. He was not touching her at all with his strength. He was like Hercules, her own personal savior.
“Marry me, Donna Cullen,” Nathan asked again, sitting back on his bottom with his erection saluting her.
She leaned her head up to his, closing the gap while keeping her eyes on his. Then she came the rest of the way to his face and kissed Nathan aggressively. Inserting her tongue between his lips, and initiating what she wanted next.
He tried to fight it. He wanted his answer. Nathan pulled away from her, but she was quicker and pushed him onto his back. Clamping her mouth over his, they returned to kissing. Except while he was kissing her he could feel Donna’s warm, gentle hand on his member as she was stroking him.
Catching a breast as it bobbled in front of his face, he latched on to suckle and tease. Though, he didn’t get too far because she had slid him into her wet, hot depth. Oh my God, this was heaven.
Donna moved up and down along his shaft before going back and forth. She would pull off of him, leaving his head still inside her.
So this was how she felt when he tortured her.
As he lay back on the bed while Donna rode him hard and fast, Nathan could feel her muscles squeezing him. Catching her hands, he held on, forcing her to go the distance. He wasn’t ready to release his lust for her. “Let it go, baby,” he coached.
Watching Donna’s face as she finally released her juices over his member, he couldn’t be happier. She was totally in the moment, and he loved how her face expressed every bit of pleasure she was experiencing. Shortly after her release, Donna collapsed over him, exhausted.
He wasn’t—by no means—done with her yet! Hearing her heart beat a thousand beats and her breathing slow a fraction, Nathan flipped both of them over with him still intact within her.
She looked up at him. “My turn. And I presume what you just did was my answer,” Nathan said assertively while starting a slow pace.
Donna blushed before he took back her mouth. Kissing her became difficult to continue when he picked up speed and was feeling the friction of her tight muscles squeezing him while he rode her home, hard and fast, penetrating her till she moaned like a pleased kitten. He couldn’t take it much longer. When she moaned with her last orgasm, Nathan blew his seed into Donna’s womb.
As they lay entangled together on the bed, she lay there after making love, and looked off to her left. Oh God, she was going to hear about it from her brother.
Ah, screw it. She loved him.
She’d loved Nathan Romeo since they’d met on the beach, and had fallen for him more and more with each coffee date. The more she spoke to him, the easier it was to see that Nathan wasn’t a person to fear, but someone whom she had a lot in common with. “Yeah,” she blushed and smiled. “When do you want to get married?”
“Now!”
“Seriously?” Donna asked, excited.
“We’re in Vegas, baby.”
“Oh, you should probably ask my brother first,” Donna gently cautioned him.
“Screw your brother. I’ll deal with him later, because I know what’s going to happen. Your brother’s going to have it in for me.”
She smiled passionately at him, and saw Nathan blush from his head to his toes. “Yeah, he will.” And with that said, he reclaimed her mouth.
It didn’t take Nathan too long before he recovered. After kissing her swollen mouth and devouring her nipples with gentle kisses, he was ready for another roll in the hay.
This time, they finished in sync with one another and cuddled for another twenty minutes before she got up and out of the bed. Repositioning himself against the headboard, Nathan saw her heading toward the washroom. They weren’t done.
He was not done with her! “And where are you going?” he asked, hurt that she was leaving him.
Donna blushed before smiling. “I have a wedding to plan for in less than twenty-four hours, or twenty-four minutes? Which is it?” she playfully asked.
Nathan sat up immediately. “That’s right. As soon as you can...NOW!”
“Well, then you better get dressed!” she said, with sass and a conniving smile.
“Hell, yeah!” Nathan quickly got out of bed and dressed.
Once they were dressed, he wasn’t sure how they were going to be able to get married right away in the hotel chapel. Donna then told him that she had called for a hotel nanny for a couple hours.
Nathan felt a little guilty leaving his son with a stranger, but she reassured him that it would be all right as Josh was asleep and that it shouldn’t take them too long. After meeting the lady, they quickly left to get hitched.
They managed to get their licensing paperwork while both wearing ecstatic smiles on their faces, radiating of their happiness.
When they were in the jewelry store and Donna went to the glass case to see what ring she would like, she finally said after some time gawking, “I can’t pick one.”
“Well then, don’t pick one,” Nathan rubbed her shoulder with his hand that had been resting on her shoulder.
“I can’t choose,” Donna nervously hesitated.
“Then pick a few. Or pick six, and I will pick the one I’ll give you. And pick six wedding bands for me to choose to wear based on which you like best.”
“What do you mean?” she asked, only to find Nathan had wandered off.
“Are you picking your ring, or is he picking yours?” the salesclerk asked, once free of the previous customer.
“Can he pick mine?” Donna asked, confused.
“If you want... You can also do the same for him, unless you want to pick out his ring.”
“Can I leave him an assortment of the rings I would like for him to choose from, that he would wear?” Donna felt like a schoolgirl getting her every wish and desire.
“Yes, you can.”
“Okay,” Donna then picked out her favorite-looking men’s wedding bands for Nathan to choose from. With them on the tray, she picked the ring she liked the most out of the men’s rings. She just knew it would be something he would love.
It had a diamond in the middle with four more diamonds around it, making it look like a cross on the gold band. His wedding band was strong and powerful just like him.
While she was looking over the wedding and engagement rings for herself, there was one Donna just happened to love, but she didn’t feel it was a traditional engagement ring. It had a center one-carat diamond with three emeralds clustered on each side of the band near the main diamond, with two more diamonds trailing down the band.
“I like this ring, but it’s not a traditional ring,” Donna said before biting her bottom lip.
The salesclerk looked at her, smiling. “It’s whatever you want.”
“Okay,” Donna said cheerfully, placing the ring among the other two she had chosen. “But it’s not going to match a normal wedding band.”
“Well, you can choose those as well. Six choices for the engagement and wedding rings... It’s up to you.”
Donna looked up from staring at all the sparkly rings, excited. “This is going to take me a while.”
The man nodded his head. He was probably used to this. She was a typical woman.
*****
Nathan had the same tray with the same lineup of rings as Donna was looking at. He put the possible rings in a separate tray, but when he saw the third ring she’d picked, the one with three emerald accenting stones triangular to the center diamond with the other engagement rings, Nathan grabbed it. He had found a matching wedding band with three small center diamonds and two emeralds on either side of the center diamonds, with two diamonds following the emeralds running down the band. When both rings were together, they lined up perfectly. It would suit her eyes beautifully.
“I’m taking this one and the matching band,” Nathan told the salesclerk.
Donna still hadn’t chosen matching wedding bands for the engagement rings she’d picked for Nathan to make the final choice when he came over to her. She looked at him curiously. “Did you pick?”
“Yup, we’re all done.”
“Nathan! You were supposed to wait till I made my selection,” she shrilled.
He came up against Donna, kissing her deeply on the mouth, then pulled away. “Donna, I know you so damn well that I’ll have picked what you wanted, but most importantly, what I’ll have wanted to give you.”
Donna put her arms around his neck and started kissing him passionately. “Now that’s love.”
Nathan gazed deeply into his fiancée’s eyes before winking. “Yes, that is.” She went beet-red because he just said he loved her in a very romantic way. They started kissing again before Nathan stopped, pulling back from her. “Okay, let’s go get the rest of our marriage stuff.”
Excitedly, she said, “Yeah!” Then they practically skipped out the door of the jewelry store.
They went to go get their wedding attire; Nathan chose a typical black tux and saw a basket of handkerchiefs. He thought to put a deep forest-green hankie into the breast pocket of his blazer that he was renting for his wedding. He knew that it would match Donna’s eyes and the rings he picked.
The dress Donna picked was big and puffy with many layers of skirting. She put a forest-green ribbon into her hair. It fell in with her long black hair, and looked so beautiful. Donna loved green things, and had told Nathan once that she wanted to go to Ireland one day.
Maybe for their honeymoon?
They had discussed it one day when they ran run into each other and started talking about Natasha and Damon’s honeymoon to Venice. Nathan and Donna had both agreed on the same destination of Ireland if and when they went on a honeymoon, after they eventually found their soulmates to marry.
“Well, we have Irish background,” Nathan had formally stated.
“You do?”
“My grandparents are Irish,” Nathan looked Donna up and down.
“Really? Which side?” Donna asked, suddenly more interested in her new friend.
“Both.”
“Seriously?”
“Yeah, my mom moved to Canada from Ireland and my dad moved to Australia from Ireland. Then they hooked up in Australia as my mom was on vacation when she met my dad. And then they moved back to Canada where my siblings and I were born. Before we moved back to Australia for ten years and of course most recently back to Canada,” Nathan shared with Donna.
“That’s how it happened.”
“Yup,” Nathan looked oddly at her. He liked her even more.
Donna entered into the wedding ceremony, and she looked beautiful. She took his breath away! When he saw her walking toward him, he could see that she put a deep green ribbon into her hair that matched the green piece of cloth in his breast pocket. They were meant to be. They hadn’t really discussed wedding attire, and they were matching beautifully. He’d make sure they got photos.
The rings he picked were perfect!
He thought that was oddly romantic.
Looking down to her feet, Nathan saw one of her feet pop out, showing, as the dress was perhaps too short? Donna had on deep green toenail polish. He kid-you-not.
Nathan had an intrigued look on his face, with a matching smile. Then he looked up to her and quickly back down before slowly scanning up her body, taking it all in. He met her eyes, and saw Donna’s face reddened with blush. Reaching for her hand, he squeezed it tightly. Donna looked at him lovingly as a happy tear slid down her face.
The previous couple were married, and they were up. It was do or die...
She might be pregnant, most likely was. But that didn’t bother him. What bothered him was the thought of not waking up to her in his bed, and in his house. He couldn’t picture anyone else helping him raise Josh. He was enjoying the way she was making his place homier, and how he felt like a million bucks when she smiled at him. He would not let another man be the one to love her, because he, Nathan Romeo, was in love with Donna Cullen. And would be forever!
Holding the ring within his fingers, he said, “With this ring, I thee wed,” sliding the wedding band slowly over her knuckle and securely up onto her finger. He smiled at Donna and took another ring out of his pocket. She looked up from gazing at her hand and smiled at him.
“With this ring...” He was now holding up the engagement ring so Donna could see that he wasn’t done yet. “I promise to protect you, no matter the cost! I promise to give you more babies to add to our family.” This earned him a giant smile from her, with more happy tears seeping down her face. Nathan came closer to Donna while still holding the ring, and now her left hand. Slowly bringing the ring closer to Donna’s wedding band, he said romantically, “With this ring, I also promise to show you unconditional and never-ending love.” He then clicked the rings together.
He looked at his emotional bride, and came in for a gentle kiss. They must have gotten carried away, because the JP made a throaty sound to bring them back to reality.
Nathan quickly stepped back from his bride. “Sorry, got carried away.” The JP gave him a look of understanding.
Nathan stood taller, then smiled briefly down at the woman who meant the world to him, and gave her a quick wink before the JP got back to the service.
*****
“With this ring, I promise to love you and help you with all your past and present endeavors, and fears. I will not leave you, I will not abandon you, I will not lie to you, and I will not keep secrets! I will love you unconditionally for the rest of my days, in sickness and in health,” Donna said with tears streaming down her large smiling face while sliding Nathan’s wedding band onto his finger shakily. She couldn’t believe this was happening; her dreams were coming true. Then she got carried away and came in for a kiss before it was time.
But they had to pull away from this deep, long kiss when they heard. “Haa...hum.” Both looked guiltily toward the man conducting their wedding. “I didn’t say you could kiss, yet.”
“Oh, we just wanted to get there,” Donna said, thrilled.
“Clearly. With the powers that be, I now pronounce you...blah, blah, blah....husband and wife,” was what they heard because they had gone back to making out in front of the wedding JP.
