Intricate Love (Sinful Souls MC #2)(50)
“Blake, let Phoebe go and socialise, for fuck sake,” I whisper into his ear.
“No, fuck that. She attracts trouble, and there is a whole lot of trouble for her here,” he says, taking a drink of his beer. I mouth the word “sorry” to Phoebe. In her defence, I don’t think the girl is into bikers; she has had a rough run as far as bikers go, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she has gone off them all together. Her phone rings, and a Spinal Tap song starts blaring from it. I see her quickly shut it off, before looking over to see a questioning look from Blake.
“Oh for fuck sake Blake, drop it,” she says to him, before getting up to get herself another drink. I laugh around the rim of my glass at him. Overbearing animal. I look over to Zane and Alaina sitting opposite us on the picnic table, as they make out all over the place.
“Oh, come on. Really? Can’t you two wait until you get home?” I sigh. Alaina laughs against Zane’s mouth. “We have an announcement to make,” she smiles shyly at everyone. I start to get excited at the possibility of what this may mean.
“We’re pregnant!” she burst out, rubbing her tummy. I jump up and clap excitedly.
“Oh my gosh, this is so amazing!” I pull her into a hug, and then let her go so everyone else can congratulate her, too. I know how long she and Zane have been trying for; they are going to make amazing parents.

We are on our way home when Blake pulls up to the main beach and shuts off the truck.
“What’s wrong?” I ask him, looking around at the dark beach. He opens his door and makes his way around to my side, pulling me out like a baby.
“Put this on,” he says, pulling out the same lace blindfold from one of our first nights together, before picking me back up again. I laugh.
“Oh no way homeboy, I’m a mama now. I can’t roll like that anymore.”
He pulls it over my eyes, squeezing my ass under his grasp. “There is no way in hell I would let that shit go down again, come on,” he says to me, as he continues walking me down to the beach.
“Blake! Pipper can’t stay in there on her own!” I yell to him, beginning to wonder what the hell he is thinking, leaving our baby in the truck on her own.
“She’s not there alone, babe,” he replies smoothly, making me peek under the blindfold to glance back to the truck over his shoulder. I see everyone standing there watching, with Alaina holding Pipper.
“Blake?” I ask him, confused. What just happened, how did we go from ‘family BBQ’ to random late night walks on the beach? When he places me down, he walks behind me and removes my blindfold. When I look down, my hands fly up to my mouth in shock.
“Oh my god!” I can feel tears prick the side of my eyes. I am standing in front of three giant heart shaped tea lights, all inside each other.
“It was the day after your party that I came down here to clear my head; it was that day, in this very spot, that I realised I was in love with you. The big heart is mine, guarding yours and Pipper’s, who are in the middle. I will always protect you two; you are both my world, and I want to spend the rest of my fucking life showing you that. You are my Queen, Vicky; you have owned my heart since day one.” He smirks and drops to one knee. “Will you marry me, baby?” At this point, tears are streaming down my face at fast speeds.
I nod my head up and down. “Yes. Yes!”
He places the ring on my finger and grabs onto the back of my legs, swinging my body over his shoulder, and runs me into the warm water.
“Blake!” I pout at him once I have come up for air.
“Oh, don’t pout baby,” he runs his thumb over my bottom lip, before kissing me gently. I look into his eyes; his hair is all wet and messy. This sexy man is going to be my husband. And with that, I can finally be his happily ever after.

I have always loved my job, who wouldn’t? Being a professional dancer has its benefits; the only downside is that I have never been able to set down roots, because I am constantly either in Hollywood or in Corando. I have currently finished shooting a music video for some drop kick, wannabe player who thinks his dancers are his personal escorts, when I’m heading back to my apartment in the Hills. I currently live with my best friend Carter; he is amazing and so easy to live with, apart from his Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and his need to bring different men home all the time. Yep, you guessed it; Carter is gay.
