âTriple chocolate ganache cake with one layer cherry liqueur and one mango mousse, frosted with Swiss meringue buttercream and chocolate-dipped strawberries.â
And if thereâs any additional reason to seal why I want to be married to this female even when Iâm ninety, hereâs the moment I get it. I tell her so by leaning across the narrow kitchen counter that separates us and pushing an empathic kiss to her giggling lips.
This is absolutely the last scenario I imagined for us on our wedding nightâperched on a couple of padded bar stools on opposing sides of a blue-and-gold damasco marble slab in a spacious but utilitarian kitchen, with at least twenty dishes of half-eaten food between us and the sinkâbut I also canât think of any elaborate restaurant that would be more ideal. No candlelit setting that would have us laughing so freely. Grinning so fully.
And kissingâ¦like this.
With the chance to lean in and urge her mouth open with mine. Taking advantage of the freedom to linger like this, with my own lips still wide, swiping in at her tongue with the flat of mine. Waiting until she pants at me in return, grabbing at the collar of my open dress shirt, until weâre making out more like the giddy teenagers weâre acting like. With rolling lips and clashing teeth. With wet, suckling sounds and wanton, lusty moans.
Until a punishing ding breaks us apart.
Kara falls back onto her chair, pressing cute fingers to her madly flushed cheeks. âWhy does that sound so much like the timer on our porte cochere light? Which always seemed to be set to an earlier time when Kell was out on date nights?â
I crunch in my brows. âNever for yours?â
Her expression sobers by a small fraction. âNever met anyone I wanted to stay out like that with.â
âBut now that this dude has, apparently, beamed you up to the Starship Enterprise?â
Her smirk returns, twice as adorable as before. âBut the transporter clang is much more fun.â
âSo far, so good.â I wave to our shameless sea of dishes, upon which thereâs everything from strip steaks and seasoned fries to escargot and an outrageous cheese assortment. âI still canât believe this place has a working replicator.â
âNo. Itâs a kouzilina,â she corrects with a wagging finger and impressive inflection. âOr so your uncle has dubbed it. Says so on the instructions there on the wall. And as long as you donât go for any seafoodâ¦â
I chuckle, though toss a grimace over to the gray blobs that were produced in place of the shrimp scampi I first ordered. âTalk about a lesson learned the interesting way.â
A fresh laugh, light and brief, from her. âGuess I wonât be worried about having to hail you on the Federation-friendly frequency anytime soon.â
âAnd thereâs the well-done geek gotcha for the night. Youâve been holding out on me, wife,â I accuse while she opens the replicatâkouzilinaâs door and pulls out a huge slice of what looks like the intense dessert she just detailed. âIsnât there a clause
