ring when I asked you.”
When he opened the box, she gasped. He was absolutely right. If she had any doubts about saying yes, the ring he had chosen with Blair’s help would have killed them all. It was perfect. The setting was old-fashioned, a round center diamond surrounded by smaller stones. The band was white gold and set with more small diamonds down each side. It was exactly what she would have chosen for herself.
“It’s beautiful, Jake. I love it.”
He took the ring out of the box and slid it on her finger. “I figured Blair would know exactly what you liked and wouldn’t be afraid to show me.”
Kaylie smiled down at the ring. It fit just right. She looked back up at Jake. “Okay, there’s only one thing left.”
He looked puzzled , so she continued, “Engagement sex. It’s supposed to be almost as good as wedding night sex. So get to it, mister.”
She yelped when he bent and put his shoulder in her belly, lifting her like a sack of potatoes. “This isn’t exactly what I had in mind. I was thinking more romantic.” Despite her complaints, she really did enjoy his occasional caveman tactics.
Jake bit her butt through her dress, making her yelp again. “Well, I’m in charge of engagement sex, so I get to decide.” He somehow managed to put the champagne glasses into the bucket with the bottle and he carried it down the hall with them to her bedroom.
Kaylie laughed when he tossed her on the bed. She watched him strip off his jacket, tie, and shirt. “I love you, Jake.”
He grinned back at her as he unbuckled his belt. “I love you too, Kaylie. Now, if you like your dress, you should probably take it off yourself.”
She complied, giggling when a naked, determined Jake pounced on her. Much, much later, Kaylie decided that nothing could beat engagement sex but she would certainly enjoy Jake’s efforts on their wedding night and any or every night after that.
