“Then you’ve got nothing to worry about,” he said.
He’d only witnessed the one day on the beach and from what he could see in the distance was Grace sacrificing her own time and cooking to help Pierre and give him water and make sure he was fine.
She ended up in the bottom that day and if the producers were looking for ratings, they’d show that. They’d show that there was a human side even when people were fighting for a prize. That life wasn’t all cutthroat.
He needed Grace to be showcased that way. Having been born into wealth didn’t mean she didn’t care for others.
And Grace needed to see people didn’t only see her as someone from the Bond family too.
“I don’t think so,” she said. “But I’m not getting worked up either way. It’s over with and there is nothing I can do at this point and nothing to change it.”
“Nope,” he said. He was hugging her tight to him, his mouth on her neck. “You know I love you, right?”
“I do,” she said. “What did you do?” She was laughing when she asked that.
“What do you mean?”
“My father always said that phrase to my mother when he did something wrong. Or when he was going to surprise her with something she might not like.”
“Oh,” he said. “I just wanted to say the words. But I can surprise you.” He stood up and had her in his arms. “We can go to the bedroom. That is where I do my best work.”
“Please do,” she said. “I love surprises.”
“You do?” he asked.
“Yep. I know you’re a planner and all. But surprises are fun too.”
“You like to know everything too,” he pointed out.
“I do, but I’m learning not knowing everything isn’t a horrible thing either. I’d say I’ve had a few curve balls thrown my way that I’ve hit out of the park.”
Which meant he could go ahead and do some things at her place this week since she agreed to what he’d suggested. It’d give them more time together in the process.
“Don’t hit anything in this room,” he said, laughing and dropped her on his bed.
“Nope,” she said. “I’m not into any of that kinky stuff in the bedroom. No slapping or hitting.”
He flipped her on her stomach and started to pull her clothes off. Since she was in her workwear, they came off quickly with a tug.
Her bare ass was flashing to him, so he leaned down and gave it a light kiss. “Not even this, though I do love it.”
“I appreciate it,” she said. “Slapping bare flesh isn’t much fun.”
He’d never thought so. Maybe because he had more strength to him and was always worried about hurting someone.
“No,” he said. “It’s better to show my appreciation of your body.”
He rolled her fast and had her on her back now, the sound of her laughter as he yanked her top off.
“You’re not showing much finesse with the way you’re tugging and yanking me around like a sack of potatoes.”
“You want finesse?” he asked. “How about I just treasure you the way you should be?”
“Oh boy,” she said. “I think you mean torture rather than treasure, but I’m up for it.” Her hand reached for his crotch and cupped him. “Looks like you are too.”
“Stop talking, Grace, and just enjoy.”
She lay back on the bed, and his mouth started at her neck, little soft pecks while his hands traveled to her breasts.
