"Don't say anything, just know I love you with all my heart." Hopping off the counter he put one arm around her waist, the other behind her knees and carried her into the bedroom, laying her down gently. He stared down at her as he took off his clothes, she looked like an angel with her hair fanned out on the pillow wearing a sexy white bra and matching panties. Getting into bed he straddled her. "Before we go any further are you just here for a f**k before you leave for Paris?"
"If you want me to stay I won't go to Paris," she said, placing her hands on his chest. "Do you want me to stay or should I go?"
"I want you to stay," he said, lowering his body he kissed her.
That night of lovemaking was magical for both of them. Maybe it was because they had gone so long without s€x or perhaps it was because they finally declared their love for each other.
Holding her in his arms he felt his life was complete. "Ria I hope you'll move back in with me, I don't want us to ever be apart again.
"I'd like that," she answered.
"I still need a personal assistant so if you want your job back it's yours. I really need your help, I hadn't realized how much you did."
"I'm surprised you didn't already hire someone."
"I did, two in fact but they quit after their first day. Something about me being an arrogant asshole."
She laughed. "Well you can be quite demanding and that temper of yours is something else. I would love my job back." She climbed on top of him. "I love you."
"I love you too and now I'm going to show you just how much."
Afterward, as they laid together he got her to tell him about the guy who hurt her. When he heard how Phil smacked her around when she broke it off with him he felt the anger inside him rising. He hoped that he never met the man or else he wouldn't be able to control himself.
When they finally got out of bed there was a knock at the door and when Ryan answered it he found a smiling Robbie and Nelly standing there with Ria's bags.
"We thought Ria might be needing these. I'm guessing everything went well judging by that smile on your face."
"Yes Robbie, things are perfect and thanks for bringing her stuff over as she is moving back in. I want to thank both of you for knocking sense into our heads."
"Where's Ria?" Nelly asked as she walked passed Ryan.
"Taking a shower, she'll be out soon. Come on in, I was just going to make coffee and I know Ria will want to see you."
"So I take it she's not going to Paris."
"That's right brother, she coming back to work for me."
