Calm, solid.

“Okay, I told you mine. What are yours?”

“The water saved my life. After Neela was born, I wasn’t in the best shape, and well, I came out here and found peace again. I’m a simple man. I love good old fashioned chocolate ice cream. And let’s see, I wanted more children, just didn’t think it was possible for a long time.”

I didn’t respond, just reached for his free hand, interlocking mine with his, with Highland bringing them to his mouth, kissing the back of mine.

Twenty minuteslater we ended up on another side of the island, pulling up alongside another boat that appeared to be the front of a restaurant.

“Stay here real quick while I tie the line.” Highland got up and leaned down to kiss my temple before hitting two buttons on the control board, one being the anchor and the other I wasn’t sure of. But of course I was nosy and wanted to see him in action. So as soon as he was up and moving down the steps, so was I.

“Ooh, wait, I want to help,” I said behind him. And even though he didn’t turn around to acknowledge me, that didn’t stop the laughs rumbling from him.

“Oh yeah, I forgot my woman is out here coming for my job. Well, if you coming, I’ma put your ass to work, Olive,” he said over his shoulder just as we hit the bottom step. My mind was so caught up in the idea of learning more about this boat life that I almost missed his words.

“Your woman?”

Highland looked over at me, instantly causing a rush of heat to flow through my body. His eyes alone had me ready to commit to the title without him even officially asking me.

“Just practicing. I thought I would try the title out first to see how you felt about it. I don’t know about you, but I love how it sounds.” I licked my lips before I tucked my bottom one between my teeth, doing my best to hide my goofy ass grin. I was sure the warmth on my cheeks gave me away though. I quickly shook my head before I put my eyes on my hands. I decided to change the subject.

“I thought you said you were tying off the yacht, but how is that supposed to happen when we’re in the middle of theocean?” I looked around at the open sea…well, besides the boat now next to us.

“I am. Since we’re pulling up to a boat and not a dock, we’re going to secure us to them. Do you see these balloon looking things hanging?” Highland gently pulled one. “These are like our bumpers in the sea. It helps us to not cause any damage to our vessel and the other. Here, let me show you how it works.” Highland came behind me, pressing his dick against my ass again, only this time the tap to my knee had me really bending, backing my ass up in his lap in a damn squat position.

When he moved his strong arms down mine until he had possession of my hands, I held my breath. Even if he wasn’t aware of the simple act, this position was dangerous for me.

Liv, how did we become the little spoon?

“You’re going to tie us to the other yacht from the line. I’m going to show you how to properly tie a hitch knot to lock us in place.” Highland shifted a little, meaning so did his dick now firmly fitting between my ass cheeks.

“O-okay,” I choked out while we worked the first fender over. Highland was a pro as he managed to handle me and the rope.

“Okay, so first thing, this isn’t a rope; it’s a mooring line.” I chuckled lowly because to me it looked like just another rope. The harsh but gentle slap to my ass had me yelping before looking over my shoulder at Highland who now wore a stern look.

“Be serious, Olive. This is important, especially when it comes to ensuring our passage across their yacht and to make sure we have a boat to come back to. Now, like I was saying, this is a mooring line for our yacht. This is the hook we’re going to cast through. We’re going to take the line and do a figure eight looking knot.” He made it hard to focus, be serious, and not want to finish bending over right now. Between this man calling his yachtoursto his big ass dick now daring me to spread my ass forhis entry. I was not here for the tying of anything, especially if it didn’t involve me tying my arms and legs around his body.

“An infinity symbol,” I said lowly but of course since Highland was on my back he heard me. He brushed his lips against my ear and whispered back.

“Exactly, just like I hope we’ll be.” I gasped as I tried to turn to see Highland and his facial expression. He was unmoved, almost too fucking calm at his words.

Why wouldn’t he be, Liv? They are his words.

“Olive, focus. We’re already starting to sway to the motion of the waves, which could cause us to drift and I want to prevent that at all costs.”

I’m just saying, I could just?—

Another quick love tap to my ass had me stopping my thought from forming to its full potential.

“Olive, you’re going to have me dragging you downstairs instead of being the gentleman you deserve and at least feeding you before getting lost in your sweet sea between these thick ass thighs you keep trying to spread open for me.” I gasped when I felt his hands now moving up my legs until they reached my barely there bikini bottom. I closed my eyes, just as the sound of another voice had me shooting them wide open and scanning the area.

“Hello, Captain Floyd, you’re right on time for your reservation. I’m lowering the passerelle as we speak.” Even though I couldn’t see him, panic was riddled all over my face that he could see where Highland’s roaming hands were.

“Of course. I’m just finishing the lines. We’ll be right there,” Highland offered but the other man spoke up quickly.

“No need. Our crew is ready to handle that for you.” Highland groaned a frustrated sigh in my ear before he kissed my cheek.

“Fuck, I can’t even get a sample. See what problems you cause when you play with me?” Highland then proceeded to triple tap the mound of my pussy as if he was calming himself and her both down at the same time, only it caused me to take in a sharp inhale as he stepped back.
