The sensation he built within me as he filled me to the brink was a feeling I would never tire of. He was everything I wanted and so much more.
If only I could have him the way I wanted.
“God, you’re so beautiful,” he whispered as he lifted me up and tossed me onto my back.
Losing his touch caused me to whine, but it was only for a moment before he was hovering over me and thrusting into me again.
Grasping my wrists, he held me down as his mouth captured the erect bud of my chest and sent me spiraling into a climactic finish I hadn’t been expecting.
My screams of pleasure echoed throughout the cabin and likely the ship.
“Shh-” he whispered against my chest, as he forced me to ride out my orgasm. “They will hear you.”
“Then let them hear,” I whispered back as I kissed him again,.”F*ck me like I’m yours.”
An hour later, I laid wrapped within his embrace twisted within the sheets of his bed, as papers laid scattered across the floor. “Sorry about the mess.”
Laughter escaped him as he pulled me closer, brushing his fingers over the bare flesh of my chest, “don’t worry about it. Spending time with you was worth it, but can I ask you something?”
Looking up into his eyes, I smiled. “Of course.”
“What happened before you came to see me? Why were you upset?”
Hesitation filled me in telling him the truth. It wasn’t really a topic to have after what we had done, but James wasn’t like other men. “Tally, Chad, the chaos. It all happened. It’s overwhelming.”
James didn’t reprimand me for what I said, and he didn’t even look upset. Instead, he listened intently and smiled. “I’m noticing more of how Tally has been acting, and I don’t agree with it. As for the boy… he didn’t deserve you then, and he doesn’t now.”
Slowly, his lips brushed against mine, and as they did, my heart raced as I let him take control. “I don’t know what I deserve anymore,” I whispered.
“You deserve the world, Becca. If only you would let me give it to you.”
I had promised myself I wouldn’t fall prey to what he was offering, but at the same time, I wanted to be dangerous for once. I wanted to make bad choices and be spontaneous.
If Tally could do it, then why couldn’t I?
“Okay,” I murmured against his mouth.
Pulling back, he stared at me with confusion. “Are you saying yes to me?”
Taking a deep breath, I nodded. “Yes, I am.”
I was saying yes to something I didn’t understand, but I trusted him.
Seeing a glimmer of happiness cross his features, I felt something else swell inside me.
The realization that for once my decision made me happy.
James made me happy.
Even if it was a taboo situation-I was finally doing something for me.
The weekend at the Keys turned out to be more enjoyable than I had expected. James was a man of his word and took my mind far from the things I had been troubled about, and as he did, I could find a blissful relief from Chad and Tally’s presence.
My mind swirled with the things he had done to me and the way he made me feel.
The man really was a work of art, and I doubted any other could match his skill set.
“Becca… are you even listening to me?” Tally’s voice called out, pulling me from the raunchy thoughts that plagued my mind.
“Hmm? Oh, yeah. Sorry, just super tired still from the trip.”
Staring at me, she paused for a moment. “I find that hard to believe considering you stayed holed up in your room the entire time. I’m glad you got over that stomach bug, though.”
There it was… the lie.
I had lied to her the next morning after sleeping with James. She had come to me, and asked me where I had been, and telling her I was seasick was the only thing I could come up with.
At first, she wasn’t so sure I was being honest. But, thankfully, my nerves got the best of me, and I actually ended up throwing up.
Old anxiety habit, unfortunately.
She had let it go then, but she didn’t seem to really care. She was too busy having fun with her uppity friends than spending time with me, and I really didn’t understand why I had bothered to come at all.
Then again, I was thankful because it got me into the front seat with one of the hottest men in Miami, James Valentino.
“Yeah, I’m feeling much better,” I smirked. “This sun is doing wonders for my complexion. You can almost feel the vitamin D soaking into your skin.”
Tally had decided on a pool day, as if that was the only thing she ever did. I was glad this time, though, it was girls only. All of them gossiping away at the latest and greatest.
Gossiping wasn’t my thing, but I had to admit they were very informative about things. My mind was soaking in all the details, wondering if I should change my profession to journalist.
