When we danced to ‘Listen,’ for our first dance, Alfie sang the words into my ear. It was absolutely perfect. Elle and I did the bouquet-throwing-cake-cutting thing together, then kissed tons of relatives. It became a bit blurry about who was who, because of all the people invo
lved.

Feeling eyes on me when I was chatting to one of Drew’s relatives, I turned to see Alfie giving me a dark stare. I’d have recognized what was in his eyes anywhere. It was only ten in the evening, but Alfie smoothly made excuses about not tiring me out, and we left the reception before Elle and
Drew.

Arriving at the door to the suite, Alfie dipped his legs and scooped me up into his arms. “Okay, Mrs. Black. Are you ready for the long haul with me?” he asked, looking tenderly into my eyes, his glinting with mischief. I smirked and nodded, before burying my face in his
neck.

Alfie swiped his card and opened the door. Pale pink rose petals were scattered everywhere. Red roses and white gypsum filled the room, and I realized we were in the penthouse. We had a perfect view of Wellington Arch at Hyde Park Corner just down the
road.

Placing me back on my feet, Alfie bent and cupped my face in his hands. “Lily Black, I am so lucky to be right here with you. Thank you for picking me. You know you’ve always been my favorite.” He smi
rked.

He dipped his head to kiss me softly, as his hand swept from the side of my face to the back of my head. He pressed my head gently toward him, deepening the kiss. I moaned deeply into his mouth. It was a kiss full of love and passion, and I had no doubt that Alfie truly love
d me.

When we broke the kiss we were both breathless. “Can you undo my dress for me A
lfie?”

He grinned wickedly and growled. “With pleasure, I’ve been waiting to peel this away since you walked into the room t
oday.”

Slowly unzipping my dress, it slipped away and fell to the floor. Hungry, hooded eyes lit up and slowly appreciated the lingerie, and my body inside of it. Alfie inhaled de
eply.

“Fuck. God, I shouldn’t swear, but you’re just…perfect.” He swallowed audibly with a click. His eyes had the green hue that told me that I was turning him on, and his pupils were huge
now.

“Come here. Sit,” he commanded. Sitting me on the chair, he went into his bag and pulled out his tablet. Scrolling through the screen, he tapped something with his finger and set it on the t
able.

‘You Can Leave Your Hat On’ by Joe Cocker began to play. Alfie rummaged in his bag again and pulled out a baseball cap, pulling it on backwards. A sexy smirk spread across his
face.

“Now then, where were we?” he cooed as he began gyrating his hips, making small circles with them, and moving them from side to side. This was my surprise stript
ease.

Sliding his jacket down over his shoulders, he pulled the material tight. Turning, he wiggled and twerked his ass at me, grinning over his shoulder. It was so damn cute, and it made me laugh out loud. He let the jacket slip to his hands before swinging it above his head. Alfie’s ass had always gotten my attention. “I hope you don’t mind but I skipped on the satin thong today.” He wi
nked.

Continuing with his sexy dance, he started peeling the layers of clothing away, taking his tie off and looping it over my head, sliding it gently back and forth on my neck before discarding it to the pile he was fast accumulating on the f
loor.

When I saw his naked, hard body, and strong, pectoral muscles flex, I was digging my nails in my palms trying to control my urge to speed things up for him. I understood what Alfie meant now about it being torture to watch. Except, no one had tied my h
ands.

Alfie kissed me briefly, then turned back and began wiggling his ass closer to my face. I was tempted to bite it, but he turned and wiggled his bulge and started undulating his hips. His hand moved to the button of his pants and he popped it open, placing his hand on the zipper. I lifted my gaze, and his eyes locked in with
mine.

All of a sudden, neither of us smiled any more. “We’ve done it, Lily,” Alfie cooed. “Nothing else matters, except that we’re together. I’m gonna love you my whole life, Lily Black, and you’re never going to doubt what you want again.” Alfie’s mouth covered mine again in a slow tender
kiss.

Seeing the look of love on his face today as I had made my way toward him, I had no doubts that whatever challenges we faced, Alfie would work hard to help me figure it all
out.

Music would always be an important part of my life, but my accident changed my mind about a few things. I could have died, but I didn’t. It put everything into perspective for me. It put Alfie into perspective fo
r me.

   *****

If you ask me the question today, whether I still feel as strongly about my music? I don’t feel as strongly now as I did. My priorities have changed. I still want to stay in my band, but I don’t feel compelled to make music like I did before. I don’t want my music if it doesn’t include A
lfie.

“C’mere,” my sexy husband coos. Turning, I meet his smoldering gaze. Alfie is lying on the luxurious, gold silk bedding. He’s naked, sprawling out lazily, and his head is propped up on one elbow. He’s wagging his finger in a ‘come here’ motion at me, and giving me his sexy, lopsided smile. He’s absolutely stunning, and he’s really mine. I am the luckiest girl in the world, not because I married Alfie Black the rock star, but because Alfie Black, the man, love
s me.

THE
END.

Dedication

This book is dedicated to you, the readers, who stuck with the story and followed it to the end. The previous books in the series contained unfinished business, and although it is frustrating, sometimes life is full of unfinished business and we have to keep going anyway. I’m really glad if you are reading this that you chose to follow Lily’s journey. Thankfully for her and Alfie the story ends with one journey and begins with another. Thank you to all of you who have supported the story of Lily and A
lfie.
