All Chapters of You Are Mine For Keeps.: Chapter 161 - Chapter 170

After going through a couple of reports with Donald, Daisy came back to her space and was about to place a call to Ugo when her desk phone rang again. She answered briskly, "Donald Rein's office..." "Daisy.." Her toes curled at the sound of Brett's low, raspy voice. "Hi, Gorgeous." "Tell me we’re okay." She shut her eyes, and smiled. The fact that he called, just to be sure of that bit of information, made her extremely happy. He wanted to know, to be sure she'd forgiven him for shutting her out all along. He felt it, the unsettling rift between them that was also troubling Daisy. She bit her lower lip. "We are. Why do you ask, is something wrong?" She replied "No." He paused. "I just need to hear it again." He replied. "So, I didn’t make it clear last night? When I was clawing at your back. Or early this morning, When you fucked me senseless?" She chuckled. "You did, Sunshine. But I just needed to hear you say it when you’re not looking at me." Brett's voice cares

The morning started out as a normal morning at Lex and Gibson. Daisy settled in her space and her gaze caught the framed photos of herself and Brett on her drawer. Struck by the need to reach out to him. She asked Ben for a quick favor and when he agreed, she had him place an order for ocean-blue roses to be sent to Brett's office with the note; "YOUR LOVE IS LIKE MAGIC. YOU HAVE ME UNDER YOUR SPELL. I CAN'T STOP THINKING ABOUT YOU." Almost two hours later, she received an inter-office envelope. Her pulse leaped with excitement and her hands shook slightly as she unwound the thin twine and let the note card inside slide out. "YOU’RE THE MAGIC. YOU MAKE DREAMS COME TRUE. X" She held the card to her chest, wishing it were the writer she was holding instead. She was still reminiscing about herself and Brett as a couple when her desk phone rang. She opened her drawer and tucked Brett's precious note into her purse before picking up the telephone. "Hey." Madison's voice was lo

Brett finally turned to face Daisy, a beautiful smile appeared on his lips. "Welcome home." He said. Daisy took a deep breath. "Thank you so much. I can't believe we had to go through all of that process just to see each other." She told him. "I know, I know it's tiring. But I promise, I'm working towards it. I'll have everything sorted out soon." He held out his fingers to her and she placed hers in it. He caught her immediately and drew her closer to place his lips softly over hers. Daisy's hand clenched around a fistful of his sweater. "You’re wearing my favorite sweater." "Yes." He murmured. "I was missing you too much. So I needed something that reminded me of you." He led her into the house and sank gracefully into a crouch, taking her hand that he was holding onto, he placed it on his shoulder. "Let’s make you comfortable, Sunshine. You won’t need these heels until you’re ready for me to fuck you." Daisy's core clenched with anticipation. "What if I’m ready now?"

"You know what, let's eat first." Daisy chuckled and Brett nodded, flashing a knowing smile. He wriggled away from her and walked the short distance to the kitchen and was back in less than a minute. "We just have to wait for the food. It's timed and currently in the oven." Daisy nodded and looked around the sitting room. "You'll take me round the house?" "Sure, but not now baby. I just want to enjoy your presence." He told her and sat beside her. "I still can't believe that all of this is for us to spend time together. The amount of planning involved is so... overwhelming." She sighed and turned to Brett, now letting her mind wander on the amount of time and planning it took him and Alejandro to get to Julian without a trace. At the thought of Alejandro, she felt an ache in her heart. He did this for her, even after the Brett and Ray's episode that made him extremely mad at her. He still did this for her. Such a huge sacrifice for someone he doesn't even know. "All this

Brett and Daisy cleaned up their mess from dinner together. Brett held out a rinsed dish and when she reached for it, he pulled it away and grabbed her hand instead, setting the plate on the counter. He caught her around the waist, and spun the both of them into a dance, in rhythm to the soft, sensual song coming from the living room. Daisy turned breathless from the feel of Brett's powerful body flexing against hers. The desire that always smoldered between them flared, making her feel vibrant and alive. Every part of her anticipated his touch, her body hummed in hunger and coiled tight with heated anticipation. "What song is that?" She asked. He swept her around the kitchen island and into the living room. "The first day you called me Gorgeous, I stumbled on the song playing at a café. I used Shazam to identify the song title and artist." Daisy shut her eyes briefly and surrendered to his masterful lead, loving that dancing was a passion they shared and was in awe of the ob
