“Me, too.” Reaching out, I swipe the tear away.
“You wanna try this again?”
Hope flutters in my chest. “I don’t want to share anymore,” I tell her. “You’re mine if we do this.” I pull her into my lap.
“Agreed. You’re mine, too.” She looks up at me.
“I still love you, Camryn Starr.”
“I love you, too,” Camryn finally confesses as she leans forward to capture her mouth with mine.

Six Months Later
“Merry Christmas, gorgeous.” Nate rolls over and wraps his warm body around me. It’s our first Christmas together as a couple. It has taken a lot of therapy for both of us to be where we are now.
We both suffer from PTSD from the events of that night. I had no idea all those months apart that Nate thought Harris had physically violated me. It wasn’t until one of our joint sessions that it came out, and I was able to tell him that he didn’t get a chance to touch me, that I was able to break his nose before that was able to happen. When he heard those words, it was like a dark cloud had lifted off him, and we were finally able to put that horrific time behind us.
It was the fresh start both of us needed in our relationship, and it solidified us even more.
A week later, he was moving into my apartment. I know? Surprising. I mean his apartment is so much more luxurious, but Nate told me he felt more at home in mine.
We couldn’t be happier.
Yes, we’re both still workaholics.
Nate has chosen to hire more people to take over most of his hands-on roles, so now he stays in New York most of the time. He’s learned how to delegate, just like me. This personal growth stuff is pretty liberating.
Starr and Skye Events has exploded—our business has doubled this past couple of months, especially leading up to the Christmas season. We had to move out of our old offices into a much larger space. Funny thing is, Nate just happened to have space in his office building. Yes, we have turned into that couple. You know the one joined at the hip. The one that makes you sick with their love. Most days, it makes me gag too, usually around Nate’s dick.
What I am trying to say is, I’m happy. We’re happy. Happily, monogamous. Both of us don’t feel like we are missing anything from our old world. Although, you would hardly call what we get up to vanilla.
“Morning.” Nuzzling into Nate’s hard chest, he’s nice and warm.
“It’s still snowing outside.”
Lifting my head from his chest, I stare out the large picture windows of our cabin and watch as the white flecks fall from the sky across the glass. We are spending Christmas in Sam and Harper’s ski chalet in Aspen. Ivy and Alex have flown in from England to join us too. Kimberly’s here also.
“It’s going to be a white Christmas.” The inner child in me jumps up and down with excitement.
Nate kisses my cheek. “I organized that just for you.”
“Just because I scream ‘oh my God’ every night doesn’t mean you are one.”
He chuckles as his arms wrap tighter around me. Then he presses his impressive morning wood against my ass. “You sure about that?” He lets himself slip between my ass cheeks.
“Maybe you’ll have to remind me?”
Yes, morning sex is my favorite thing.
White Christmas morning sex—even better.
Nate’s hand slips between my folds and slowly works me over, making me wetter and wetter. He lifts my leg and hooks it over his, spreading me open. Nudging my entrance a couple of times before slipping inside of me, we both hiss at the joining. His hand grabs my breast as he pushes into me from behind.
“I love you, Camryn Starr,” he whispers into my ear, the prickles of his jaw tickling my cheek. “I want to fuck you for the rest of my life.”
Me too, without a doubt.
My eyes roll back in my head as he begins to get into the perfect rhythm.
“I can’t wait to knock you up.”
This stills me for a moment, especially as we don’t use any protection.
“Don’t worry, not until there’s a ring on your finger.”
This makes me smile because I can’t wait for the day until there is one. I know, me the woman who’s all independent hear-me-roar crap, what can I say, good dick is hard to find. I’m locking it down.
Then I feel something cold against my skin. Nate’s doing something weird with my fingers, but I’m too mesmerized by his dick to care.
“Marry me, Camryn?”
Now that statement has me stopping what we’re doing, and my eyes widen.
“I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Camryn. I love you so much.” My eyes automatically begin to prickle with tears. “Would you do me the honor of becoming my wife?” Nate lifts my hand in front of me.
Holy shit! That diamond is fucking huge. How the?
Silence falls across the room as I stare at the diamond on my finger.
“Camryn?” Nate questions, trying to pull me out of my shock.
Pushing him away from me, so I can turn around and look at him, I think for something this serious, we should be face to face.
“I can’t believe you just proposed while your dick was inside of me?”
“Thought it was a good idea at the time?” A frown crinkles across Nate’s forehead.
“You sure you want to marry me?”
Nate reaches up and cups my cheek. I can see his love for me written across his handsome face.
“I love you so much, Camryn. It’s always been you.”
Damn him as tears begin to fall from my eyes. Shit!
“Yes,” I answer—the word falling easily from my lips.
“Yes?” Nate’s sapphire blue eyes widen, but he still isn’t sure if he heard correctly.
“I want to spend the rest of my life with you, Nathaniel Lewis.”
Nate’s eyes widen in understanding as he captures my lips with his own.
