“That’s in your nature. As long as you don’t make anything more out of our agreement than what we’ve decided, you can get as sentimental as you like.” He cupped her bottom and drew her hard against him.
“I won’t make a thing out of it. The sex is hot, and that’s what I like.” She nibbled his neck. “Brigs told us about the call from Gilchrist, that Mia Taita’s place is now bugged.”
“We’ll catch her.”
“I know you will.”
Her faith in him was absolute, something he valued beyond belief. “Tell me about the diving.”
“We explored along the reef, but I got distracted by the dolphins.” Her tone bubbled with excitement. “One nudged Luke to the surface. He grabbed its fin and it took him for a ride. It was the most amazing sight.”
Luke was damn lucky to have spent the day with Saria. “Tomorrow, you’re welcome to use the beach.” That way he could watch her, even if from a distance.
“Wonderful. Nico is bursting to build a sandcastle. Lydia’s actually drawn up a master plan for one.” She glided her hands down his sides as she slowly knelt. “Pass me the soap.”
His already hard cock got incredibly harder. “I’m not—”
She slid her lips around him then licked the head.
“—going to last if you do that.”
“That’s your fault for being so tasty.” One mischievous wink and she sucked him deep into her mouth. Oh hell, he was a goner.
Saria intended to tempt Ben beyond his endurance. On her knees, with the water sluicing down her body, she built his pleasure with her mouth until his thighs shook and his fingers pressed deep into her shoulders.
He groaned and rocked his hips. “Please, Saria. Show me some mercy.”
“Mercy is completely overrated.”
“I want to be inside of you, not to come in your mouth.” He pulled out and sagged against the shower wall. “Hell, that was one of the hardest things I’ve ever done.”
Yet harder still was his cock and she was without a condom. “Wait here, Ben. I didn’t think of protection.”
“No, I’m not letting you go now. We’ll come back and finish this shower later.” He scooped her into his arms and carried her dripping wet body to the bed. He tumbled her onto the mattress, nabbed what he needed from the bedside table and sheathed himself.
“You forgot to turn the water off.”
“If you’ve got time to think about that, then I’m not doing my job properly.” His gaze roamed over her chest then he crawled on top of her, cupped her breasts and eased them together. Slowly, he licked her nipple. The hot stroke of his tongue sent a bolt of desire to her core, and all thought of the running water flitted from her mind.
“I love when you kiss me like that.”
“I’ve only just begun.” He grinned then nipped the tip.
“Show me.” He did, sucking her nipple deep into his mouth until a torrent of tingles raced through her. She grabbed his arms and clung. “That feels so good.”
“For me too.” He swept her legs apart and knelt between them. “Now to make you feel even better.”
“Everything you do makes me feel that way.” Up on her elbows, she traced the ridged bands of his stomach. His hard muscles were honed to perfection, and his abs rippled as she brushed the head of his cock. His shaft was thick and long and saluting her from a thatch of blond hair, the same pale color as his head. She sat straighter, bringing their bodies closer together. His chest hair tickled her breasts and she sighed with delight. Then he kissed her, hot and hard and exactly as she wanted. She loved his kisses.
He broke for air, blue eyes twinkling. Then he drifted lower, kissing and licking. She fell back onto the bed as he bent his head and kissed along her inner thighs, his breath puffing against her skin. He dipped his finger along her folds then rubbed her clit.
“Please, yes please.” She grabbed fistfuls of the soft cotton bed sheet. “More.”
“Demand anything you wish.” He plunged one finger deep inside her then stroked, harder and faster, until he hit that spot that had her gasping.
“I want you buried deep inside me and to never leave.” She looked into his eyes as she skimmed his cock. She caressed his hot flesh then pumped him in time with how he stroked her. “Now.”
“As you wish.” He slid over her and filled her completely.
“Ben.” She writhed as he thrust and melded their bodies together. Each of his deeply penetrating strokes took her over. “I can’t hold on any longer.”
“Then don’t.”
“Only with you.” The words rushed from her as blissful spasm after spasm racked her body, and he came too, his climax tumbling over hers and sending her flying into oblivion.
“You okay?”
“Mmm,” she mumbled. “Never better.”
