Evelin's POV
Jimmy's entire frame shuddered, his gaze locked on me with complete shock.
"What... What did you just say?" His voice wavered, barely above a whisper.
After those words left his lips, I watched him hold his breath without realizing it.
I could see the fear in his eyes—afraid he'd misunderstood, afraid I didn't mean what he hoped I meant.
He was terrified this would turn into another crushing disappointment.
I smiled, my words coming out firm and unmistakable as I said it again, "Jimmy, I want you. Do you want me too?"
His throat worked as he swallowed hard.
His expression made it clear what his answer would be.
"I do, Eve. I want you. God, I want you so much," he breathed.
In one swift motion, he swept me up into his arms and carried me toward the bed.
I stared at the mattress before me. Ever since returning to Bonnie City, I'd shared this bed with him every single night.
