Page 41 of Whatever He Wants

“Denise, wait!”he begs, his tone switching to panic.“I’m sorry—”

With great satisfaction, I stab my thumb on the end call button.

The sound of the front door opening fills me with excitement.I forget about Matt’s call and hurry downstairs to greet Isaac.He tries to offer me the rose bouquet in his hand, but I ignore it and hug him, pushing up on my toes to give him a deep kiss.

He embraces me with one arm and kisses me back, groaning into my mouth as he turns me and presses me against the door.When we pull apart, I caress his neck and sweep my hand down his chest.

“We need to leave soon to make our reservation,” he says, dropping another quick kiss on my lips.

“Before we go, I have a surprise for you.”

He smirks.“Is it upstairs in our bedroom?”

I tug my robe’s belt loose.When it falls open, I smile at his stunned expression.

“Yes.”

“Holy fuck.”

He drops the bouquet and picks me up instead, making sure I don’t step one foot up the stairs.Not even a toe.
