Her lips pressed together.
“Whatever delusions you have, you better cherish it because it’s done.Over.And for the record—you weren’t even that good.”
“Excuse me?”
“You heard what I said.”She pulled that daring gaze away from mine and focused on her books again.“Definitely not worth a repeat perform—”
She didn't get a chance to lie to my face again.I surged to my feet and scooped her up in one clean motion, tossing her over my shoulder as she yelped.
“Jaxon!”she shrieked, smacking my back.
“Are you insane?Put me down!”
“Nope,” I said, already jogging toward the water.“You don’t get to lie like that and walk away dry.”
“You are unhinged!”
“Correct.”
Her laughter followed us down the sand, bright and breathless, her tiny fists pounding into my back.The laughter betrayed her outrage, and my arm tightened around her legs.
“Let.Me.Down.”
Benji passed us as I walked toward the water, shaking his head at her begging and shrieking.The familiarity of the water made it easier to trek in, and I got about waist deep before losing my grip on Savannah.
“Jaxon, don't you dare—”
The waves swallowed the rest of her protest, and she emerged ten seconds later, drenched from head to toe.Her eyes were shining with laughter despite the scowl she was sporting.
“You're such an ass!”
She shoved me hard, sending me flying back into the water, laughing.Trouble is stronger than she looks.The look she gave me when I stood, sweeping a hand through my wet hair, sent a hint of fire through me.Her gaze trailed along my chest, and I smirked when she visibly swallowed.No matter how much she wanted to lie to herself, she wanted me.
Closing the distance between us, my hands found her hips and lifted her.She gasped, arms immediately looping around my neck and crushing her body to mine.The tempting need to crush my lips against hers coiled within me, but I fought it off.
“Want to revise your earlier statement?”I dipped my head, my lips brushing against hers as I uttered every word.“Or do you want me to bring you to the stars again right here, right now?”
Savannah shuddered in my arms.“What I want is to not freeze to death.I'm cold.”
“And I have a very efficient way of warming you up.”
One hand slipped between us and into her shorts.Her fingernails dug into my shoulders when I pushed her panties to the side.
“I doubt it,” she breathed out.
“Doubting me is how you ended up with two mind-blowing orgasms last night.”
“One thanks to me.”She swallowed when I pressed my thumb against her swollen clit.“That should hardly count.”
“So what you're saying is, I owe you another orgasm.”
“Jaxon, I'm not… oh God.”Her body jerked in tiny tremors and she blinked rapidly, trying to focus.I slipped a finger into her easily, loving the way she tightened around me.Fuck, how good that would feel if she was clenching around my dick.
“Not what, trouble?”I kissed the edge of her lips, moving at a torturous pace inside her.“Go on, use those words you love so much.”
“You're such an asshole,” she panted.
I grinned against her skin.“An asshole who can make you come at will.”
