Beautifully Irresistible(120)

“I don’t know, Jennifer,” he replied, looking puzzled.

He smiled at me warmly and I realised how tired he was. We could all do with a holiday.

“I love you all, Zack.”

“We all love you too, JB.”





Chapter Seventy





“What about a day trip to Paris, just the two of us? Do you fancy it, Miss Black?”

It had been several days since the funeral and the twins were taking a few days off college.

“Oh yes. We could do with a laugh, Zack!”

“Right, grab your bag and let’s go, baby! We will take the Aston Martin!”

“Can I drive, Zack?”

His face was a picture as he mulled over my question. He was struggling to decide. Minutes ticked by as I looked on the ground for a bale of tumble weed.

“Right, okay then, but keep your foot back a bit. The Fair Lady Martin needs respect, you know!”

“I thought I was the only weirdo that named cars!”

“Ha! What do you call the Audi?”

“I call him Colegasm as he is quick to respond, never lets me down and I am sure he could go all night!”

“Complete filth, JB!”

I settled in behind the wheel and acquainted myself with the dashboard.

Jesus! It was like Christmas had come early!

Gently easing onto the throttle, the engine throbbed and purred under my touch. The sound was so deliciously erotic.

“She’s very eager, isn’t she?”

“Yes, she reminds me of you!”

“You trust me don’t you, baby?”

I winked at him as I eased the car down the long gravel driveway.

“Don’t make me regret this, Miss Black!”

“You won’t, lover boy!”

We sped off in the DB9 to the private airstrip. His hand rested comfortably on my knee and he smiled over at me warmly. Butterflies whizzed around my stomach as I looked at him.

Driving this car was beyond amazing. I could totally see the attraction. It was like nothing I had experienced before. Pulling up, Zack looked relieved that I hadn’t totalled her.

“Wow, driving her was like when you give me a Cole orgasm, only not quite as good!”

“Glad to hear it! You did well, baby!”

Once we were on Zack’s plane, I noticed how nervous he was. He seemed to be sweating a bit. Something was bothering him.

He strapped me in and kissed me deeply, his tongue twisting with mine as I responded to his lovely kiss. His hands stroked my hair and heat rose between us. He dominated the kiss as I became aroused. I pushed my body closer into him, enjoying the feeling of him in my mouth. He seemed to be trying to tell me something with his soft and tender lips.

“Wow, that was very nice!” I told him breathlessly.

My heart was pounding loudly as a flush spread across my face and chest.

“Are you ready, baby?”

His gorgeous eyes shone beautifully in the bright sun light. We taxied down the runway and within minutes, we were making our ascent. He checked all the instruments and he still looked a bit twitchy. It was probably all the crap that had been going on recently with David and finding out about Phoebe’s death.

Well, we could only look forward now and at least he knew the truth about me and he still wanted me. I studied his stunning profile as he concentrated on his task.

He still loves me and I love him.

Reaching into his jeans pocket, he inserted the USB into the sound system. Our special songs started to play.

Settling in, I enjoyed looking at the landscape below us. After about fifteen minutes, he turned to me pointing down at the house.

I could see Scarlett and Jasper running and waving at the plane in one of the open fields.

“Look, there’s the twins!” I shouted into the headset.

“I know! Keep looking!” he instructed, grinning at me.

The small plane tilted slightly to the left then I saw it.

Oh my god! I couldn’t believe my eyes. I was completely speechless!

The question ‘Jennifer, will you marry me?’ appeared in the field below. A heart shape surrounded the letters and each letter must have been about 4ft tall. The letters were formed by large rocks. It must have taken him ages!

So that’s where he disappeared to yesterday!

“Jesus, Zack, that is beautiful and so romantic!” I told him as tears blurred my vision.

Oh my god! This was it!

“Well, will you, Jennifer?” he asked, looking worried.

His blue eyes were wide as he waited for my reply.

“Can I think about it?” I coyly teased him.

“Yes, of course, if you want to,” he whispered, looking away.

“I’m just kidding! Of course I will marry you! Nothing would make me happier!”

“I love you so much, Jennifer.”

“I love you too, Zack. I always have and I always will.”
