*Eadan drew their lovemaking out to last all morning. After the first quick bout, they slept and, upon awakening, during their second session he took his time to love every inch of her delectable body.
Both were satisfied, but, for him personally, he added a quick silent prayer of thankfulness for having had the brains to realize what a prize he had in this woman.
She’d been wonderful in bed, sexy as hell. Not only had they explored each other’s bodies, they’d delved into their emotions and learned about their dreams. It was deep, soul-searching and never to be forgotten.
But all too soon, the time had come to face the world. After they’d shared a quick meal, Remi offered to go with him to see his new flat and he could tell by the excitement sizzling in her eyes that he would be in for a real surprise.
As soon as he opened the door, he understood. She’d outdone herself.

From room to room he wandered, Remi trailing behind, waiting breathlessly. The anticipation was killing her. Why didn’t he say something—anything?
Watching his eyes as they shifted from one angle to the next, she held her breath and soon began to feel light-headed. Refusing to be the first to speak, she waited. For what seemed like forever, he said nothing. Just wandered, taking everything in, until finally he turned to her and gathered her in his arms.
“If I didn’t already know you loved me, this would be my proof. It’s absolutely perfect. Everything, every small detail, the colors, the trimmings even the knick-knacks, they’re all exactly right.”
“I’m glad.” She took her first deep breath.
“There is just one thing you did get wrong.”
Anxiety blossomed instantly. “What…?”
“It’s here in the bedroom. I much prefer the bed to be messier—used. If you know what I mean.” The devouring passion igniting in his eyes left her in no doubt at all.
Happiness cascaded throughout Remi and she giggled. “Again?”
Laughing, he swung her up into his arms and they both landed in a heap. “Forever!”
