"Well, I'm the one you chose, remember?" Aaron said with a wink. "And trust me, they're all just jealous of how lucky you are to be with me." He took another bite of his food before reaching across the table and tracing his finger along her bottom lip. "Don't ever forget that." His voice was husky and possessive as he gazed into her eyes, making it clear who truly owned her heart.

Aaron smiled and leaned back in his chair, watching her intently. "Good girl," he purred before taking another bite of food, savoring the taste as much as he did their playful banter. "So what do you feel like doing after dinner? Want to watch a movie or maybe cuddle up by the fireplace?" His hand drifted lower on her thigh, teasingly brushing against her skin through her skirt.
