“You’ve been talking to Stefan?” Vicki asked.
“He’s a Law Castle Bad Boy, so of course I talk to him. I was the one who asked him to look after you. Stefan keeps an eye on you when I can’t,” Richard said. “Do you really think I’d leave my daughter alone without having someone keeping an eye on her?”
Tristan liked her father a hell of a lot more. They were both on the same page. Poor Stefan, he’d been giving information to Tristan during the time he’d been away.
“I can take care of myself,” Vicki said. She sounded irritated.
“And taking care of yourself you got pregnant, shot, and heartbroken. You may not like it, Vicki, but you’re my daughter. You’re a Bad Boy’s daughter, and you’ll be protected.” Richard turned his gaze back to Tristan. “You treat my daughter with respect or I’ll have your hide, do you understand?”
Tristan nodded. He wasn’t afraid, but her father deserved respect.
“I’ll see you at the weekend. I want to witness my daughter’s proposal,” Richard said.
He followed Vicki to the door.
Once the door closed Vicki let out a groan.
“You didn’t have to tell them about a proposal. They’ll be expecting it now,” Vicki said.
He cupped her face. “I was going to propose to you, and I intended for it to be a surprise. Your father ruined my surprise.” He shook his head, going down to one knee. “I’ll propose in front of the town people, but I want your answer now. Vicki Burke, love of my life, will you do me the honour of becoming my wife?” Tristan asked.
Tears were streaming down Vicki’s face.
“Yes,” she said, gasping.
Chapter Fourteen
Tristan picked Vicki up in his arms. “What are you doing?” she asked, squealing. He always seemed to be picking her up and transferring her from one room to another. She couldn’t believe her parents had come to Law Castle and that they’d interrogated her man.
“I’m going to carry you upstairs and make love to you.”
“Did you really think I’d reject you?” Vicki asked.
“I thought you might. I didn’t know if I’d won back your trust. I can promise you, Vicki, I’ll never give you a reason to doubt me.”
He kicked open her bedroom door. Instead of throwing her to the bed, Tristan followed her down to the bed.
“You’ve made me the happiest man in the world,” Tristan said. His lips were on hers in a matter of seconds. He tore at her clothing until she lay underneath him. “I thought the biggest mistake I ever made was sleeping with you.”
Vicki frowned. “If this is supposed to get me hot and horny, admitting sleeping with me was a mistake is not going to cut it.”
Tristan chuckled. “I couldn’t regret something that felt so right. My biggest mistake was trying to push you away. I should have gotten a divorce years ago. You, Vicki Burke, you’re the woman for me. I can’t ever let you go. I’m a selfish bastard because you could be with someone younger or your own age, but I can’t. I can’t stay away from you. You’re my life.”
She pressed a finger to his lips. “Stop talking crap about your age. You made a mistake, and you broke my heart. Everything you did is in the past. We’re together, and nothing is going to change that. Now shut up, kiss me, and then fuck me.”
Gripping his arms she pulled him closer. His lips were on hers, and he was dragging her further up the bed. She opened her legs wide, and Tristan glided inside her. He stretched her with his wide cock.
“I’m going to make you pregnant, and you’re going to become my wife.”
“Yes,” she said.
Tristan’s grip tightened around her as he made love to her. She couldn’t pull away from him. He was so perfect, and she was going to be his wife.
“I love you,” he said.
“I love you, too.”
She whimpered as he deepened the penetration. His cock hit the spot deep inside her that took the pleasure to the next level. The thought they could be making a baby together in that moment was enough to send her over the edge.
Tristan always left her a bundle of erotic nerves. There was no stopping the rioting sensations spreading throughout her body. She loved him with her whole heart. Not a day went by when she wasn’t thinking about him.
His lips found hers, and his thrusts sped up, deepening. She gasped feeling her release close to the surface. “Come for me, baby,” he said. His fingers went to her pussy, stroking her clit.
She came apart from his touch, and Tristan followed her into bliss several seconds after.
“I can’t get enough of you,” he said.
