Kapitel 202: Chapter 202: KEEPING IT IN THE FAMILY: FLYNN

At six p.m., I snuck into our bedroom and crept on the bed beside her. Valerie was laid flat on her back with her arm over her head, one breast showing and one covered with the navy-blue sheet. Her face was perfect with the dim light peering through the crack in the shades. It made her silky-smooth skin shine.

Placing my head beside hers, I watched the rise and fall of her chest, and my heart felt full to the brim to think about such an amazing woman loving me. As if she sensed I was watching her she stirred, turning onto her side. Her eyelids slowly fluttered before she opened her eyes and looked at me.

"Hi," she said in a whisper and brought her hand to cup my jaw, "What are you doing here?"

"Looking at you," I said, giving her a slow smile.

"I know that. Why? Was I snoring?"

"No, I was looking at you because I can."

"Can what?"

"I can look at my beautiful woman. Tell me you're mine, forever."

"You know I am."

"Say it. I need to hear it," I coaxed.
