The Girl He Craves

Sophie’s pov

Aiden asked me if I wanted to put the ring in the jewelry store or somewhere more private.

I wasn’t sure which to choose seeing as I was so stunned by the sight of the sapphire diamond ring that was worth 1.2 million dollars.

That’s enough to buy at least two mansions. Enough to feed a good bit of poor people too. I didn’t want him to spend this much money on me. Not when I clearly did not deserve it.

“Aiden you can’t spend so much on me,” I whispered so only he could hear me as he observed the ring for flaws. His eyes were set on the ring so fixedly that I thought he was way too into it to even have heard me.

His mouth tugs into a grin a second later. He heard me.

“Don’t worry about it, darling. Like I’ve mentioned,” He turns. to me with the ring pinched between his fingers. “Only the best for my woman,” He whispered, leaning forward.

For his woman….

Focus Sophie!

Play it cool. You’re supposed to pretend too, don’t forget that. Don’t forget that this is all for show. Everyone’s watching, be calm.

Aiden leans forward even more, his eyes falling to my lips.

I held my breath because he was getting so close that I can feel the warm air from his nose on my face.
