Mr. Knightsbridge (The Mister 1)

I hoped this woman would never stop surprising me.

I grinned and she rolled her eyes.

“So what do you say?” she asked.

Okay so it might not be the most romantic proposal I’d ever heard, but I wouldn’t want it any other way.

“Sure, I’ll wear the ring.”

“Beck!” she said.

“What? I can’t answer a question you haven’t asked me.”

She laughed. “You’re impossible. But I love you. Will you marry me?”

“You’re perfect. And I love you too, and I’ll marry you every day of the week for the rest of your life.”

I took the box from her and pulled the diamond ring out and got on one knee. “You’re the most gracious, kind, funny, sexy woman I’ve ever met, and I love you so much sometimes it frightens me. My entire life, I’ve been searching for something, needing to fill a missing void in my life. For years I thought the Dawnay building was the answer. But all along it was you I was waiting for.”

Stella stepped forward, tilted her head to the side, and pushed her fingers through my hair.

“Marry me,” I said. “And I’ll never stop working to make you happy.”

She sat on my bended knee and clasped her arms around my neck. “I love you, Beck Wilde. Now. Tomorrow. Forever. It’s as if my life didn’t really begin until I met you. And you’ve got a deal.”

Being with Stella London wasn’t just a one-off, deal of a lifetime. It was a daily win, and nothing would ever compare. It didn’t matter what happened in life—good or bad—as long as Stella was by my side, everything was perfect. Searching for a closed door on my past had opened the heavens and brought me Stella, and I’d never look back.
