Chapter 0405
VALERIE
I change quickly, drying my hair as he showers, before putting on some sexy make–up.
Once ready, I quickly begin lighting whatever candles I have. Luckily, I have enough to make the room look a little more romantic, although to be honest, he could fuck me near a dumpster, and I’ll be completely unbothered. Just having his hands on me would be enough.
Picking up two candles, I place them on one of the bedside tables before taking two more and carrying them around to the other side. I’m about to place them. down when I notice the items on the desk. Right on top, there’s a sticky note in handwriting I now recognise.
‘A little something. Hope you like ‘em.‘
My heart fills with warmth and I smile down at the paper.
How can one not love him? My heart skips a beat when I see the picture frame, the perfect match to the one that smashed the other day… for Jai’s picture. How can someone be so… I smile towards the door, admiring the black ridged frame before placing it down carefully.
Zade is something else.
There are two boxes and I take the post–it note off the first one.
“This reminded me of you.‘
I smile, curiously opening it up. Inside is a snow globe. I bring it closer looking at the little silver sculpture inside of a naked woman sitting on the floor. Her hair falls to her chin, and I smile. It does look a little like me.
Beautiful…
I tip it upside down, letting the snow and glitter pool around the woman. I love it…

My heart skips a beat when my eyes land on the gorgeous necklace, my heart pounding as I admire the long glittering gold chain as I raise the little book that hangs off the chain. The front page is set with several little gems in deep red and

I flip it open and read the tiny writing…
First, there was me.
Beneath it is a tiny motorbike.
Then there was you.

I can’t help but smile at that. He’s so damn adorable.
Now it’s Us..
My eyes glitter with tears at the two gems that form a heart. Half red, half blue.
I turn the page and hold back a little sob as I stare at the words.
Will you promise me forever?
I close the little book holding the necklace to my chest.
Fuck, this man is perfect.
I fan my face, trying not to ugly cry as I look at the book once more, brushing my fingers down the final page.
I’ll always promise you forever.
ZADE.
The shower water pours down over my head, and I can’t get the image of her in just that towel when she entered the bedroom out of my head. She had given me a smile. Her cheeks flushed as she wandered over to the closet.
I wash out the remnants of shampoo from my hair, watching the water run clear before I switch the shower off and grab a towel. Time is going way too fucking slow…
Walking over to the mirror and wiping the steam away, I stare at my reflection. Auburn hair that looks almost black when it’s wet, two mix–matched eyes, a strong straight nose, a couple of light scars, and a body that has been trained since the beginning…
