Blake searched Shelby’s face as he finally confessed what had been in his heart for so long now. He should have known that his grand plans of seduction weren’t going to work. He’d never been able to keep a secret from Shelby, and this was the biggest secret he’d ever held back from her. He brushed his thumb across the palm of her hand and waited anxiously for her response.

“What is your definition of more?” she asked, scrunching her forehead.

He pulled her into the circle of his arms, so they were spooning face to face, and smiled.

“I want to go to sleep and wake up with you like this for the rest of our lives. I want you to be my best friend and also the mother of my children. I want to love you the way you deserve to be loved,” he stated solemnly.

Blake needed her to understand the sincerity of his words. This was it for him. It may have taken him the majority of their adult years together to realize it, but there would be no other woman for him but Shelby. He just hoped she felt there would be no other man for her.

“I…wow…this is kind of sudden.”

He ran the pad of his thumb across her lush bottom lip. She was right, of course, but now that he’d spoken the words, he felt as if they’d always been there between them, he’d just been too scared to use them.

“I’m tired of wasting time.”

“What exactly do you mean by wasting time?”

He wanted to growl at the suspicious tone to her question. Blake was equally frustrated when she tried to pull back to put distance between them.

“You and me. It makes sense we’d be together.”

“How exactly does it make sense?”

Blake did growl with frustration at her comment and sat up on the bed.

“Why are you picking my words apart?”

“Oh, I don’t know, maybe it’s because my best friend of twenty years just had his tongue in my mouth. Kind of strange.”

He squinted at the sarcastic tone of her voice and brushed his curls from his face. She sat up and positioned herself cross-legged on the bed. Her lips were slightly puffy from their kissing and her maple-colored skin was still flushed. All he wanted to do was push her back down on the bed so he could learn the texture of her nipples with his tongue, but her no-nonsense demeanor told him he better explain himself pronto.

“Jesus Christ, Shel, I’m telling you you’re the love of my life,” he admitted through clenched teeth.
