Aiden moved a hand between my legs, fingers running over me.
“I really do want to go snorkeling,” I said. Though I was sure he could convince me to change those plans if he kept using his fingers.
He didn’t. “I’m just checking something.”
“Something?”
“Yup. So I can do my ‘hacker shit.’”
He left me in the bed, and I stared after him. “How does touching my pussy help you hack stuff?”
All he did was shrug and smirk as he pulled out his laptop. “Aside from the fact that I always want to touch your pussy? You’ll see soon. If you haven’t done your training, now would be a good time.”
“I’m okay with surprises, but you guys do them a lot.”
“Are we surprising you? Or are we training you to trust your Alphas and your doms and the fact that we want what’s best for you?”
I made a face, lightly mocking his last words. He raised an eyebrow. Chills rose on my skin at the single movement before he grinned. “Go do your training.”
“I don’t think Theo brought the dildo.”
Aiden glanced my way. “I know for a fact that’s not true. I’ll be done with my hacking shit in twenty minutes. Go.”
I went, but I stripped as I did, swaying my hips on the way out of the room. His low growl had me grinning. And moving faster.
CHAPTER FORTY-FIVE

AIDEN
“How do people walk in these?”
I rescued Trinity from falling headfirst into the sand as she tripped over her flippers. “You don’t. People usually put them on closer to the water.”
“But then how would I trick you into carrying me?”
“Don’t need a trick for that, violet.”
Every chance to touch Trinity was an opportunity I took. And right now? With the dark, jade green, partially mesh bikini she had on? I wanted my hands all over her.
I scanned the beach out of habit. Years of living in my family made me aware of my surroundings at all times. Children playing in the surf, balls being thrown around, sandcastles, and people simply soaking up the sun.
A group of men came down the beach, a bit out of place. Not in beach clothes, not taking in the scenery. One of them had a camera, and the other seemed to be filming on his phone. They might be the same men who were taking photos at the competition yesterday.
Probably nothing, but I would keep an eye on them the same way I was keeping an eye on the man with the metal detector I’d seen earlier.
Something was tingling in my memory, but I couldn’t quite place it.
“Aiden?”
“Yeah?”
Rin still stood in front of me, off balance because of the flippers, staring up with those eyes that matched her bathing suit. “You zoned out.”
“Sorry. You ready?”
“I am ready.”
