Ivy had no idea where Xander had brought her, but the moment they stepped inside, he wrapped his arms around her from behind.
"I bought this penthouse years ago," he whispered against her ear. "Now that we're married, how about we spend our wedding night here?"
His words instantly brought a blush to her cheeks.
Their marriage had happened so unexpectedly, but hearing him say those words sent a pleasant shiver through her.
Ivy and Xander had been intimate before, but the thought of finally consummating their marriage as husband and wife filled her heart with excitement.
She lowered her gaze to the hands resting around her waist before taking a slow breath. Turning to face him, she slipped her arms around his neck and looked into his eyes.
"Then show me how much you love me, Xander," she whispered softly. "I want to spend this night with you."
Ivy had fallen hopelessly in love with this man, and giving herself to him felt like the most natural thing in the world.
