Inseparable

“Amanda, you are the most amazing thing to ever happen to me,” I said. “I have felt since day one that the universe brought us together. Spending the rest of my life with you feels like the only option I have. It is the only option that I will ever want. You are the love of my life. Will you make me the happiest man in the world and become my wife?”

She nodded, tears flowing down her cheeks. She reached out and took my hand, pulling me up to my feet. I wrapped my arms around her and leaned down to kiss her gently on the lips. Then I pulled back and slid the ring onto her finger.

“I love you so much,” I said, smiling. She had no clue how much I’d fallen for her, but she would eventually get it. I’d make sure of it.

“I love you, too,” she sobbed. “Damn these hormones.”

We both laughed and hugged again, feeling the excitement surging through us. I ha

d found the love of my life, and I was never going to let her go. I pulled back and turned to the restaurant, clearing my throat. Everyone was already looking over at us in awe.

“May I have everyone’s attention?” I asked loudly. “She said yes! And because of that, everyone’s dinner is on me!”

I smiled as the restaurant cheered and clapped, waving at Amanda with excitement. I turned back to her and pulled her into my arms again, feeling my shoulders relax. She felt like home, and that was the best feeling in the entire world.

“I’m sorry it took me so long to make you my fiancée,” I said, smiling.

“As long as we don’t have to have a big wedding, I’m good.” She laughed.

“I don’t care if we get married in the supermarket, as long as we are together,” I said with a chuckle.

Everything had turned out just as the universe wanted. I got my happily ever after and the most amazing woman in the world. I couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Turned On: A Never Before Published Exclusive Romance Novel

Blurb

No one understands how hard it is to be the son of a billionaire. Lucas Prine had the best of everything. He made sure of it. Clothes. Cars. Girls. But when high school graduation suddenly thrust the unique Telula Grant into his bed and his life, Lucas suddenly realized being the son of a billionaire was more of a liability than an asset.

Telula Grant was not afraid of what mysteries were ahead of her after she graduated high school. But only a day after receiving her diploma her life changed. Lucas Prine gave her a glimpse into his world and suddenly her head was in conflict with her body longing for his touch while her heart craved something more.

Would Lucas and Telula be able to overcome their obvious differences and see into each other’s hearts or were their worlds just too different? Was there enough strength in their mutual attraction to each other to show them the path to true love? Or were they nothing more than opportunistic lovers who settled for wild, untamed physical desire?

One woman held the key to their happiness. But would she share it or had too much damage been done?

Chapter 1 - Lucas

"Come on, Monica." I purred as I slipped my hand underneath Monica Smith's tight-fitting Riverbank Tigers t-shirt. I had done this at least half a dozen times before. She would hesitate and remind me we were broken up, bite her lower lip as she pushed her body up to mine while saying no, no, no. But it would end with her screaming yes, yes, yes. This encounter would be no different.

“Lucas, I’m seeing Matt now.” She pouted. Her breath quickened as she felt my fingers teasing around her nipple.

Matt Hawkins was a nice enough guy. But I knew why Monica was dating him. He was cool and fairly smart but the most important thing was that his family was almost as wealthy as mine. That was the only way he’d get a girl built like Monica. Most women found his unusually large forehead and early indications of male pattern baldness at the age of eighteen to be a big turn-off. He was the “I like you as a friend” kind of guy.

I knew she was throwing herself at him to try and make me jealous. I played it up a little to watch what she’d do. Of course, as I predicted, she threw her cat at him so fast poor Matt thinks it’s true love.

I don’t have anything against Matt. You can’t blame a guy for taking what the girl offers up. But Monica is played so easily. It’s laughable how predictable she is. All I have to do is sulk around her a little bit, let her catch me looking at her once or twice. The next thing I know she wants to talk to me privately.

When a girl wants to talk privately it is one of two things. She is either mad at something or she wants sex. In my case with Monica, and just about every other girl I’ve been with, sex was the answer. But the trick is not to give it up that quickly.

A girl like Monica thrives on the drama. So, I had to be careful. I had to sneak a kiss carefully at her locker then brush my hand across her backside when leaving Biology. The goal was to get her so torqued up that it wasn’t me hinting at it anymore. It was her. This would be the twelfth time we hooked up since she started dating Matt two months ago. Every time she gave me the same lame line that she was dating Matt.

"So," I whispered in her ear. "You know that Matt doesn't do things the same way I do." I cupped her large breast in my hand and kneaded it forcefully. "Besides, I've known you longer. What's between your legs belonged to me, first."

“You said you just wanted to talk to me.” She put her hand over mine and only half-heartedly tried to push it away. It only made me step closer to her as we hid in the shadows beneath the bleachers of the empty gymnasium of Riverbank High School. “You didn’t say anything about…”
