Their Royal Wedding Bargain
Page 61
Knowing Jag shared his sentiments, Rafe shook his head. ‘Not in a heartbeat.’
‘Where are the twins?’
His wife’s voice from behind had Rafe swinging around. ‘Princess.’ Immediately at ease with her by his side, Rafe drew her into his arms and kissed her. ‘The twins are over by the fountain with Milena. How’s your father?’
‘Determined to reign until he’s ninety.’
Rafe laughed, kissing her again. ‘I’m okay with that. The more time I get you all to myself the happier I am.’
‘You’ll always have me to yourself,’ she promised huskily.
Jag mumbled something about finding his own wife before heading inside, but Rafe only had eyes for Alexa.
Kissing her again, he felt her move against him and groaned softly against her lips. ‘You know accepting your marriage proposal was the best bargain I ever made, don’t you?’
‘You didn’t accept my proposal,’ Alexa scoffed. ‘My father forced you to marry me.’
‘Did he?’ Rafe gave her an enigmatic look he knew would drive her crazy.
‘Yes.’ She glared at him. ‘He did, didn’t he?’
Rafe’s grin widened. ‘Have you ever known me to do anything that I didn’t want to do?’
‘No.’ Her green gaze narrowed menacingly. ‘Are you saying you wanted to marry me back then?’
‘Let’s just say no other man was ever going to have you after the way you kissed me that night.’
‘You mean the way you kissed me,’ she huffed.
‘Want to argue about it inside?’ he asked suggestively.
Alexa glanced anxiously over at the twins. ‘How long do you think we have before the boys need us again?’
Rafe grabbed her hand and tugged her towards the Summer Palace. ‘Long enough for me to show you how much I love you.’
‘Oh, good.’ Alexa’s grin made his heart catch. ‘My favourite thing.’
