Embracing Trouble (Trouble Series) (41 page)

I tried to hide my delighted smile, but it was impossible as I giggled.

I grinned at Ava and made my way out to her on the balcony, still wondering how I had gotten so lucky. She was beautiful and all mine.
Mine, mine, mine.

I put my arms around her from behind and looked out over Paris, knowing I had made her happy with the surprise trip. I kissed the top of her head, breathing in her vanilla and berry scent with satisfaction. I would never be sated, always desiring her and needing to be close to her. She was my beautiful Ava and she had changed my life.

“Happy Birthday,” I murmured against her neck.

“It’s the best birthday I’ve ever had. Thank you so much,” she said happily turning in my arms and looking up at me.

I caressed her cheek, looking into her eyes, and knowing there wasn’t another place I would rather be.

“I love you, Ava,” I said huskily.

I watched her eyes light up with joy as I leaned in to kiss her lips.
