“...Okay?” I didn’t understand why he was changing the subject.
“I had him look into your problem. He delivered a DMCA takedown notice to your ex a few hours ago.”
I blinked at him in shock. “A what?”
“It has something to do with the copyright act. Apparently, the fact that the pictures were all selfies automatically makes them your property. Posting them online without your permission is technically copyright infringement.”
My jaw dropped. “Really?”
“That’s what Mitchell said. I’m no expert, so I can’t say if it would have held up in court, but it was certainly enough to scare Brian.” Bowen smirked. “He gave in immediately once he was threatened with legal action.”
“Are you saying what I think you’re saying?”
Bowen nodded, a satisfied gleam in his eyes. “Mitchell personally watched him remove the pictures from the website and delete them from his phone. You have nothing to worry about anymore.”
Happiness flooded me as I felt like a weight was lifted off my shoulders. I couldn’t believe that he’d done this for me. It was more than I ever could have hoped for.
“You’re amazing, do you know that?” I asked, my heart swelling inside of my chest. “I love you, Bowen.”
I hadn’t planned to say those words so soon, but they slipped out, and there was no taking them back. I wouldn’t want to even if I could. I meant it. I’d never felt like this about a man before, and it was powerful. I was a woman in love and all I could do was hope that he felt the same way.
Bowen was staring at me with a stunned look on his face. I was worried that he wasn’t going to say it back, but then he closed the distance between us, pressing a searing kiss to my lips. He was showing me how he felt, and the passion behind it made a shiver run down my spine. When he pulled away, he pressed his forehead against mine, his blue eyes burning into mine as I tried to catch my breath.
“I love you too,” he said, and a warm happiness flooded me.
This man had found his way into my heart, and to know that he felt the same way about me was the perfect end to this vacation. Well, almost perfect. I wanted to connect with him on a physical level. Like, rightnow.
“How about we get out of here?” I suggested.
I’d attended the ceremony, and I doubted that Faith would notice if I left the reception early. She was too busy to care if I slipped away. Bowen didn’t say a word, he just pushed back his chair and stood, keeping a hold of my hand. He pulled me out of my chair and toward the exit.
We took his golf cart back to the hotel, and as much fun as it was to ride in the thing, I wished it moved faster. Anticipation was thick in the air between us, making me fidget. My core was aching with need.
Once we arrived at the hotel, we got into the elevator together. There was another couple with us, riding up to the tenth floor. It was agony to be standing so close to him and not touching, but the second the other two people got off, and we were in the elevator alone, I was pinned against the wall. Bowen’s muscular body was flush against mine, his erection grinding into my lower stomach.
Bringing my hands together over my head, he held them in place with one hand. Licking his way into my mouth, he used his free hand to trace the curve of my waist and cup my breast. My back arched, and my tongue tangled with his. Bowen surrounded me, the scent of his cologne, the heat of his body, and his touch that left a trail of fire in its wake.
The elevator stopped again and he pulled away reluctantly. We were in front of his door in seconds, and as he opened the door, I was pulled into his arms again. I surrendered to him as he started to undress me right there in the sitting room of his suite. He unzipped my dress, and it pooled around my feet. I was left in my black satin lingerie, Bowen’s big hands spanning my bare back.
My own hands pushed the suit jacket off his shoulders, and he allowed it to fall to the ground along with my dress, even though I was sure the thing was custom-tailored and cost a fortune. My fingers were quick to unbutton his shirt, exposing his smooth chest.
Dipping his head, he trailed his lips down the side of my throat, sucking on the skin where my neck and shoulder met. A needy moan tumbled from my lips, and Bowen suddenly lifted me off my feet with his hands under my thighs. My legs went around his waist as my fingers gripped his shoulders as he started to walk.
He didn’t take us to the bedroom this time. Instead, we ended up tumbling onto the couch. I was beneath him, his weight settling on top of me as his mouth covered mine. I couldn’t get enough of his kisses, the taste of him was addicting.
He brought his hands around my back, unhooking my bra. As he pulled it off, he moved back and ran his eyes over me. There was reverence in his gaze, and I shivered. No man had never looked at me like that before, and I’d never felt so cherished. Shifting his body lower on the couch, he traced my clavicle with his tongue, his eyes darting up to look at my face.
“You’re so gorgeous, Marlee. Do you know that?” he murmured huskily. “I want to taste every inch of you.”
I gasped as he continued to lick his way down my chest until he reached my nipple. He pulled the hardened bud into his mouth, lavishing it with his tongue while his hand found my other one. He rolled it between his thumb and forefinger, pinching it just enough to cause a little pain that heightened the pleasure he was giving me with his mouth. The contradicting feelings drove me wild, and I writhed beneath him, wetness pooling between my legs.
I closed my eyes and angled my head back, letting the sensations wash over me. My hands closed into tight fists, and my breathing grew heavy. He spent a while on my breasts, licking and touching. It was amazing, but I was eager for more.
As if he read my mind, Bowen started to move further down my body. He kissed over my belly, his hands on my hips, holding me in place. My legs were already parted, but he smirked as he lifted them up onto his shoulders. I watched him through hooded eyes as he brought his face to the fabric between my legs. The black satin was soaked from my wetness, and Bowen pulled it into his mouth, his eyes rolling up before closing, as if he was savoring the taste.
“Oh God, Bowen...please don’t tease me. I need to come…” My voice was needy and full of the desperation I felt. Something inside of me clenched, and all I could think about was feeling him stretch me wide.
Instead, he yanked my panties to the side and ran his tongue up along the center of my pussy in one long, slow lick. I released a loud, incoherent sound of raw pleasure. It was so good, so erotic. God, this man knew what he was doing.
