letting you go now or ever, Sabrina,” he growled and kissed her gently on the lips.
    Sabrina couldn’t deny him when he was so gentle and her head turned back just as a flower needs the rain and sun. “Then we’re still going to….” She started to say but couldn’t speak the words.
    Sid only chuckled at her inability to use sexual conversation. “Yes. We’re still going to make love.” He waited until her eyes lit up again and her body relaxed. “I can’t believe I’m saying this, but we’re going to wait until we’re married,” he finally said.
    She stilled completely and opened her eyes. She looked up at him, her mouth still swollen from his kisses and her body vibrating with need but he looked serious. “You’re kidding, right?” she demanded, worried that he wasn’t.
Sid shook his head and smiled at her stunned expression. “Didn’t you hear me earlier when I asked you how soon we could be married?”
    She thought back to moments earlier. They’d been on the couch and he had said something, but it hadn’t broken through. The words slowly came back to her and she looked up at him. “Married?”
“Yes, will you marry me?” he asked, and pulled a small, square box out of his pocket. “I’d like you to be my wife, Sabrina.”
     
She looked at the ring, then up at his eyes. “Because I’m a virgin?” she asked, terrified of his answer.
     
“No,” he chuckled. “I want you because you’ll be the perfect wife and I want you beside me. I’d be proud to have you as my wife.”
    It wasn’t a declaration of undying love but would Sid ever be able to say words like that? She couldn’t see him uttering words of love but did she really need that? He cared for her, obviously or he wouldn’t have stopped tonight. And he definitely wanted her. She could feel that on her leg right now.
    Sabrina looked at the incredibly beautiful ring, her smile growing as her own love for him started to blossom out of control, welling up inside her and threatening to choke her. And if that’s the way she had to die, she could expire happily.
    Throwing her arms around his neck, she hugged him tightly. “Oh, yes!” she gasped, wanting to laugh out loud with her happiness. “Oh, Sid! I can’t believe this! You want to marry me?”
    “This is what I’ve been trying to get you to understand for the past week,” he said, accepting her laughter and affection. He pulled her on top of him, enjoying the way her body fit perfectly against his. He gritted his teeth when he felt her soft, voluptuous breasts pressing against his chest. She had no idea what she could do to him, he realized. That was a good thing though. He didn’t want her to ever have the upper hand in this relationship. It was bad enough that he’d have to wait until his wedding night before making love to her.
    “No long engagement though,” he warned her. “I want this thing done with all due speed. Understand?” he said and rolled her back underneath him, unable to take that position for too long without acting upon her enticing wiggles of excitement.
    “Oh, yes! Of course,” she laughed. She glanced at her new diamond ring once again and then reached out to hug him. “Oh, Sid! How amazing! I can’t wait to tell my parents. They’ll love you.”
Chapter 6
“Sid?” she whispered into the receiver?
     
“Sabrina? What’s wrong?” Sid demanded, instantly awake.
     
“Nothing’s wrong. I just wanted to share something with you if you’re up for it,” she said through the phone, still whispering despite the fact that he was obviously awake.
    Her words relaxed him somewhat but he was still tense, wondering why she would be calling him so early. And frustrated. Just hearing her voice made his body react instantly and he was aching, hard and ready for her. The soft, husky whispers of her voice were only compounding the problem. “What time is it?” he asked, glancing out the window. “It’s still dark outside, Sabrina.”
“I know.
