“Let go, my love.”
“Baby, I love you,” she screamed as her body started to quiver from her orgasm. I rolled her over and drilled her hard for a minute or two before my climaxed shattered me into ecstasy.
I grabbed her face and kissed her hard, slowly nudging my c**k in and out of her. “You’re perfect, have I told you that, poppet?”
She gave me a chaste kiss and teasingly smiled. “Make love to me. I’ve missed you so much.” She hooked both arms around my neck and kissed me. We savored each other, unhurried.
“I’ve barely started my love. Believe me I plan on taking you all night if I could have my wicked way with you.” I declared as I kissed her senseless and slowly made love to her.

Sienna
The next day, all the guys including Amelia went out to ski while Luce and I decided to stay put and cooked for Christmas Eve.
We were going all out with leg of lamb, honey baked ham, baked turkey, Austrian crescent small potatoes, buttered and flavored, Greek moussaka, spinach salad and tons of side dishes we could whip up. Luce and I are quite the ultimate cooks. I suppose that’s why we got on to begin with. There’s nothing like the shared joy of good food and a good laugh.
“What do you propose for dessert?” Luce asked as she chopped the celery rapidly.
“I was thinking along the lines of apple pie, chocolate tartufo, and strawberry panna cotta? Oooh let’s not forget gooey fudge brownies!”
“Splendid! Are you quite sure Claudette has all the ingredients?”
“Have you seen the stock room? IT HAS EVERYTHING we could dream of and them some!” I exclaimed in awe.
“That was smashing! Thank you Luce and Sienna for the lovely, splendid meal!” Toby rubbed his belly and grinned widely.
“I don’t know about you people but I think I have another spot for a spare tartufo!” Chad reached out for another ball of chocolate ice cream dessert.
Blake and I shared our desserts on one plate. It’s sickening how happy I am. I feel like I’m floating in lala land all day with him beside me. Can someone be this happy? I ridiculously wondered. Quite possibly, yes.
After dinner, we hovered around the living room and exchanged presents.
Blake got everyone jewelry, including me. He got me a ten-carat diamond necklace and earring set, thirty carats all together. “Whoa, that’s a lot of carats, thank you babe!” I grabbed his face and happily kissed him.
He got Luce a tennis bracelet, diamond studded wrist men’s bracelets for Chad and Luke. They all were overjoyed.
Toby, Luce, Chad and Luke all handed their presents and we all opened them in haste. Chad actually made each one of us a painting of ourselves—he altered it magnificently through his eyes. He captured each of us in our happy moment, in our element. It was special.
“Oh, Chad this is gorgeous! Thank you! When did you find the time to do any of these? You were always so busy!”
“I always have time for my babies!” He gave us all flying kisses and he stood up. “I just want to take this minute to thank you all for everything…After what I’ve been through the last few months, each and every one of you were a pillar of strength that I couldn’t have lived without.
“Sienna, I love you and you don’t understand the depth of my love for you. You’re in ‘here’ baby girl.” He tapped his heart. “I couldn’t have done this without the mighty Knightly! Thank you with all of my heart. You make me soar higher looking at how you’ve made my baby love really happy.
“Lucy, without your sweet sarcastic tongue, I would be lost in a very dull world. I love you very much. And to my every dearest dapper, Toby, the times you were there for me were one of the sweetest memories that I will forever treasure and never forget. Although during those times—how I wished you were g*y, HA!” We all laughed at that. Chad and his sense of humor!
“And lastly, I want to thank you Luke. You came as I bittersweet surprise when I was at my lowest. Thank you, Merry Christmas everyone!” Chad screamed and danced about.
They opened all of my presents at the same time and all synchronized their “ahhhs” and “ooohs.” I got them all watches and I must say I won’t be tapping my bank account soon. It cost me a pretty penny.
“Poppet, you didn’t!!!!” Blake announced in disbelief and whistled.
“Show it to us beeotch!” Chad urged on.
Blake showed it to them. “Is that the over a million bucks, Patek Phillips Sky Moon watch?” Chad eyes bugged out. Toby laughed.
“It is! But you shouldn’t have. I don’t want you spending your money on me!”
I gently smacked his head with an empty box, “You’re joking right? You’ve given me a pricey present as well. Stop it! I want to spoil you too! I even got it engraved.”
He turned it over and read it out loud, “Keep me with you, always. SR.” His finger traced the engraving.
“I just thought you should have something to remember me by when you’re away on business. Everyone always checks the time every hour or so right? I wanted you to remember me every time you do.”
“I do though, even without the watch, poppet. I can’t drive you away from my thoughts even if The Queen of England asked it of me.” He chuckled as he captured my lips.
It was past three in the morning when we all retired to our bedrooms. I just finished taking a shower when I found Blake beside the bedroom fireplace and studied it mindlessly.
I strode towards him and sat on his lap with my terry robe on. “What are you thinking about babe?”
Blake took my hand and did rhythmic circles on my palm. “Thank you—for your present—for everything, Sienna.” His spell-binding eyes glowed and danced against the flames. “I’ve never felt complete until I’ve found you and I hope you feel the same as I do.” He pulled something out of his pocket.
My breath caught.
It was the engagement right.
My engagement ring, as a necklace!
“I wanted you to have it. I suppose something to remember me by—of my profound commitment and my ceaseless love for you. I want to marry you right now if I could—but I know you’re not ready. I want this as a token of reminder—an indication if you please—for you wear it on your finger when you’re ready to give me that kind of everlasting devotion.”
“Blake….” I was getting choked up.
Holy shit, he’s really serious about marriage.
