Now, it was a bloody obsession.
Once the LA lights were behind us, she took her eyes off the window and leaned back in the leather recliner with a sigh. “This has been such an unbelievable week. I’m on my way to London early with you…and that incredible beach house. That was a once-in-a-lifetime experience, too.”
“Hopefully not,” I told her. “Since I’ll be finishing up the paperwork soon to become the new owner, we’ll be staying there as often as you like.”
Her gorgeous hazel eyes widened, and I was mesmerized by the way those irises seemed ever changing. They seemed to change color from green to light brown, to gold, in a matter of seconds.
Right now, they were more greenish-gold, the shade that occurred when she was inquisitive, which seemed to appear a lot.
“Are you serious?” she asked, like she wasn’t quite sure that I wasn’t joking.
“Of course,” I informed her. “Something special happened there, love. I wasn’t about to let a place with memories like that go to someone else. Nick told me he was planning on selling because he’s so busy that he never gets to spend any time there anymore. So I purchased it. We can go there whenever you like.”
“Just like that? You just…bought it?” she asked as her brow furrowed.
I shrugged. “It was a minor purchase. I don’t have a personal home in the States. It seemed like a good choice. You don’t approve?”
“It’s not that,” she assured me. “It’s a spectacular home, but so expensive. I guess I’ve just never known anyone who can just casually buy a place like that with little more than a snap of their fingers.”
“It’s not exactly grand like the Beverly Hills house.”
“It’s not the size, and it’s not exactly small,” she said. “It’s the location. And it’s a lot more awe-inspiring than the place in Beverly Hills. To me, it is, anyway. The beach has always been like my sanctuary. It’s so peaceful there.”
“Then feel free to escape there any time you choose. Just don’t forget to take me with you,” I said, only half-joking.
If she thought the Newport Beach home was pricy, I wasn’t even going to mention what the technological marvel had cost in London.
She smacked my shoulder. “Like I’d go without you?” she asked.
“I thought it would make you happy. It certainly has good memories, for me anyway,” I told her, my mind returning to every place we’d had sex in that house before we’d taken off the next afternoon.
“I’m glad no one else bought it,” she confessed with a sigh. “I guess maybe I haven’t seen that granite in the kitchen for the last time.”
I grinned as I remembered exactly what had occurred on that kitchen countertop. “I’d be happy to reenact that memory whenever you want.”
“Would you?” she asked in that sexy, do-me tone of voice I’d gotten to know so well.
Fuck! As usual, my cock reacted immediately to the simple possibility of getting inside that gorgeous body of hers.
One come-fuck-me look from her was all it took.
I reached out and stroked the soft skin of her cheek. “Have I told you how beautiful you are today?” I asked, wondering how I’d neglected to say that if I hadn’t.
“A few times,” she answered as she took my hand and twined our fingers together. “It got us in trouble every time. You know I’m going to tell you how breathtakingly handsome you are, which is always true, and—”
“Don’t say it,” I said, my voice graveled and rough. “Food first. Dinner will be here shortly. I remember now. You already missed lunch when you said it last time.”
“Do you hear me complaining?” she asked with a sensual laugh.
“No,” I said stiffly. “But you should remind me that food comes first. I shouldn’t just drag you off like a caveman every time you say that without making sure you’ve eaten first.”
If I kept this up, she’d starve to death since I couldn’t seem to keep my hands off her, with or without a blatant invitation.
She unbuckled her seat belt, raised the armrest, and slid closer to me.
I released my own belt impatiently, wrapped my arms around her warm, soft body, and hauled her into my lap.
Bloody hell! The seat belt sign was off, and I was never satisfied unless she was as close to me as possible.
