Chapter Fifteen

Cade felt the faint stirrings of apprehension. Damn Radcliffe, he thought, slamming the car door harder than intended. His friend’s prediction kept ringing in his ears, regardless of his efforts to ignore it. Would he spend the entire night looking at each man, wondering if they too had enjoyed the luscious weight of Shakara on their laps? How many of them had paid for a dance with her, issued money to her in return for a glimpse of her naked body?

He gritted his teeth and forced himself not to dwell on the image. On the other hand, Radcliffe could be mistaken. Perhaps no one in his social circle had ever set foot in the exotic club, apart from his friend. For a few precious moments, Cade assured himself of that.

Then again, he mused, if Radcliffe’s presumption did have a trace of truth in it, how many of those men would admit to having visited the club and witnessed her. None. He’d be willing to bet money on that. Not if they valued their marriages and relationships.

Marriage. His features relaxed. He was being sincere when he’d mentioned to Radcliffe he wanted to marry Shakara. He still wanted it, above all else. The meddling doubts he had regarding tomorrow night would have to take a back seat. The idea of another woman on his arms left a sour taste in his mouth and he knew he’d made the right—the only choice.

Cade entered the luxury condominium, satisfaction soaring through his veins. Shakara loved him and no matter how often she told him those words, he would never get used to or tired of hearing them. His sweet, beautiful girl had somehow managed to forgive him for his cold treatment of her.

Cade pushed the button and stepped into the elevator, all the previous worries forgotten. His life was changed and there was no turning back. Shakara was his. Their relationship was tangible. He could touch her, taste her, and marvel in the feel of her delicate hands on his skin. The special place he’d reserved in his heart for her—whether or not she chose to accept and return his affection—was replete with contentment and love.

Shaking his head, Cade curved his lips into a smile. Had someone told him that one day he’d be tickled into submission, literally, by a slight girl, or that he’d sit at her feet painting her toenails a ridiculous shade of blue, he would have been insulted.

Oh yes, insulted at curling up with Shakara on the sofa watching movies or observing her as she painted in silence across from his desk on those nights when he had to work an extra hour or two. Shakara was the only person he tolerated inside his home office. Had it been anyone else seeking to share his space of solitude, whether it be Julie or a previous girlfriend, his answer would have been a resounding no.

Not to say he’d ever issued an invitation of living with him to any of the women he dated.
