Chapter 65

"Listen to me. This is my mother's house. Inherited from an uncle so it's forgotten about. I thought you could live here, with Ruby, with Pearl, if that's what you want."

"Ruby? You don't even like- No, give me back my shoe ..."

"Just because I can doesn't mean I will." He tossed it to the floor. To her horror he yanked up his shirt. "She just takes a bit of getting used to, that's all. Anyway you do this, so I can court you and then we get engaged."

"Engaged?"

"I already have the ring."

"What? Are you mad?"

"Properly paid for too. Not like anything you can produce. Now then."

Engaged? Her with a properly paid for ring on her finger. Cass's jaw dropped further as his perfectly shaped chest emerged from the shirt.
