“What about me?”

“Have you ever been in love?”

“Yeah, I have. Once.”

He quirked a brow. “The guy you just broke up with?”

I shook my head. “No. Not him. It was my high school boyfriend. We dated for three years, and I assumed I would marry him one day. At least, that’s what I thought until I caught him cheating with my friend.”

“What an asshole,” he mumbled.

“I agree.”

The breeze was picking up, so I nestled in closer to him, wrapping my arm around his waist, and stared out over the ocean.

“Kayla,” he whispered.

I lifted my eyes to see him glancing down at me. “Yes?”

“Thank you for having dinner with me.”

His gaze slid down to my lips, and my pulse sped up. I wanted him to kiss me more than I wanted my next breath. He leaned down ever so slowly until his mouth met mine. His kiss was softer than I expected, and the feel of his lips on mine set my body on fire.

He pulled back. “I’ve wanted to do that since I saw you walk into the lobby tonight.”

“Then why did you stop?” I asked breathlessly.

His lips curved into a grin. “I didn’t want to push you too far.”

Under normal circumstances, I would have appreciated his attempt to slow things down between us. But I was well aware our time together would end soon. I only planned on staying in Santa Barbara for another day, and the odds were high that I’d never see him again. So, I didn’t want to leave his room with any regrets.

My lips brushed his ear. “That’s very sweet.” I bit his lobe gently, eliciting a deep growl. “But I’ll let you know if we start to go too far.”

My words seemed to unlock something inside him because he crashed his lips against mine. I returned the kiss with the same fervor, our tongues dancing together.

Wanting to get closer to him, I threw my leg over his and straddled his lap. His hands slipped under my sweater, causing my skin to tingle everywhere he touched.

I reached between us and rubbed my hand over his rock-hard length. He let out a deep growl before trailing his lips down my neck.

Rocking against him, I moved my hands to his chest and began working on the buttons of his shirt. Once I pushed the material out of the way, I took a moment to admire the colorful tattoos that adorned his skin before I placed feather-light kisses across his muscular pecs.

“Fuck, I want you,” he hissed as I tugged on one of his pierced nipples.

“Then take me.”

The words barely left my lips before his arms encircled me, and he stood. I wrapped my legs around his waist as he walked us to his bedroom. I let out a small squeal as he tossed me on the soft bed.

I watched as he grabbed a condom from the box on the dresser and tossed it on the pillow. “Looks like someone was expecting to get lucky tonight,” I joked.

“Not expecting, just hopeful.” He winked while stripping off his clothes.

My eyes nearly bugged out of my head when I caught my first glimpse of his massive cock. “Holy shit, you’re huge,” I breathed, and slapped my hand over my mouth when I realized I’d said those words out loud.

He smirked. “Don’t worry. It’ll fit.”

Before I could come up with a snarky response, he lifted my foot and removed my boot, then moved to the other one. Once my shoes were gone, he trailed his hands up my thighs until he reached the button of my jeans. His movements were agonizingly slow as he pulled the denim down my legs.

The anticipation of what we were about to do was overwhelming, and I didn’t want to wait any longer. I ripped my sweater over my head, leaving me in only my black lace bra and panties. Something intense flared in his eyes as he stared down at me, and it caused my core to clench with need.
