Mr. Big Shot: An Enemies To Lovers Romance (Kinda Cocky Book 1), стр. 50
“Let me at that finger, gorgeous.”
Karina giggled as she held out her left hand to me. I slid the white gold band against her skin, watching it settle perfectly beyond that second knuckle. It sparkled in the setting sun, casting soft rainbows in the expanse of her gorgeous green eyes. I cupped her cheek, softly tilting her head so she could find my gaze again. As I wiped away a tear threatening to streak her cheek, I kissed her forehead.
“Are you happy?” I asked.
“Yes,” she said breathlessly. “I can’t remember a time when I was this happy.”
“Good.”
She swallowed hard and looked back up at me. “But, there’s something I kind of have to tell you.”
I paused. “What is it?”
Her eyes danced between mine. “I’m going to need the bartender to make my drinks virgin for a while.”
I blinked. “Why?”
As she shook her head with a smile on her face, it finally clicked. “Wait. You don’t mean…?”
She nodded. “I had to tell the bartender at the shack to make me a virgin of whatever you ordered for me once I sat down.”
I stood up, bringing her with me. “You’re pregnant, Karina?”
She cupped my cheek. “We’re pregnant, Zane.”
“Oh, my God!”
I wrapped my arms around her and picked her up. I swung her around as people clapped and cheered, showering us with love and excitement. I settled her back down into the sand and captured her lips, letting my tongue flood her mouth. She cloaked me with her arms. I bent her back as I kissed her slowly beneath the setting sun. And as nighttime streaked itself across the sky, the stars came out to applaud us.
To applaud the journey we were taking together.
“I love you so much, you beautiful, perfect, outstanding woman.”
She laughed. “I love you too, handsome.”
As I gazed into her eyes, bringing her back upright, I saw my future rushing behind them. I saw the children we’d have. The home we’d build on the twenty-something acres I owned. I saw her swollen with my child and rushing around behind them in the mornings. I saw her body beneath mine, sagging with age and still as beautiful as the first time I’d ever laid my eyes on her.
Karina was the one for me. Despite everything that had happened. Despite everything we had endured. Despite everything we had been through, and experienced, and fought over.
She was mine for the rest of it. A true Happily Ever After.

Get over my crush on Brenden.
Graduate college.
Never look back.

Vegas.
Sipping on crazy drinks.
And coming up with insane plans.
Losing my V-card to Brenden after a drunken night was acceptable.

Was I even thinking?
