“Ohh, umm, I don’t know. We have your parents’ party tonight.”
Shaking my head, I push him away. He sits on his heels and watches me intently. I want nothing more than to shout this from the clifftop. There’s a chance this will all implode because of who we are to each other, but I can’t risk ruining tonight for Mom and Dad. “Not tonight, Kane.” I shake my head. “I can’t ruin this for them. We need to keep it just us, for a little while at least. No point in imploding everyone’s life if we don't work out.”
He doesn’t say anything and I begin to doubt that we have a future and then he grins. “What are you grinning at?”
“You called me Kane.”
“You told me to.”
“I know I did, but hearing you say it, it’s music to my ears.”
Now it’s my turn to grin up at him. “Kane,” I whisper, causing his smile to widen. “I need you to kiss me again so I know that this is real and not a dream.”
“Sunshine, I’ll kiss you anytime you want.”
To prove his point, he grabs me by my shoulders and pulls me into his chest. He leans forward, grips my cheeks in his hands, and presses his lips to mine. My tongue pushes between his lips and into his mouth, there’s not an inch of space between us as we kiss in the morning sunlight. He pulls back and rests his forehead against mine, both of us breathing heavily. “That real enough for you?”
“Very.” I nod. “But just to be safe, you better kiss me again … Kane.”
He pulls me into his lap so I’m straddling him and we kiss in the morning light. Wrapping my arms around his neck, I give myself over to the man I’ve lusted over for as long as I can remember. We hold on to each other tightly, afraid to let one another go. Afraid that if we let go, this will all disappear. I don’t know who, but one of us pulls away, breaking the physical connection but the emotional ethereal one, it’s buzzing around us. Breathlessly, we stare at one another. The only sounds are the waves crashing on the shore, our hurried breathing, and the pounding of my heart.
“Why did we wait so long to accept what this was?” he asks, cupping my cheek in the Kane way.
“’Cause we’re idiots,” I reply with a shrug, “but I don’t think we were ready then. I think we needed time to process all of this.”
“You are very wise, Calliope Fischer.”
“Thank you, Kane Heatherington.”
“Fuck, I love hearing you say my name.”
Smirking, I look deep into his eyes and huskily purr his name, “Kane.” But it totally backfires on me because, before I know it, he flips me onto my back, his body cocooning mine, and once again we make out like teenagers on a Saturday night at the drive-in.
“I will never tire of kissing you, Calliope.”
“Just kissing?” I taunt him.
“For now,” he growls and the deep timbre of those two words vibrate through my body. My clit buzzes to life at the thought of more than kissing this man. Then my panties combust when he leans in and whispers, “Calliope, you deserve to be pampered and worshipped. Devoured. When we finally get to that, you won’t be coming up for air until I’ve had my fill, and when it comes to you, I have a voracious appetite. We’ve had years of foreplay, that’s a lot of orgasms to make up for in a weekend.”
Fuck me, who knew Mr. H, I mean Kane, was so dirty?
Seems sassy and playful Cali is at the beach because I lean into him and whisper, “Only a weekend?” Then I nip his earlobe. “I thought a silver fox like you would have more stamina than that.” He growls and it turns me on, I can’t wait to hear him growl like that when we are naked and covered in sweat.
“Don’t test me, Calliope.”
“Maybe I want to … Kane.”
The sound of a car driving past causes Kane to jump off me quicker than the Flash. He towers above me and looks around, seeing if anyone is nearby, but it's still just the two of us. He looks back down at me and offers me his hand. Placing my hand in his, he pulls me into a standing position. “I guess we better go before someone finds us.”
Nodding, I smile but it’s not as vibrant as moments ago. The thought of parting ways hurts. “Do you still want me to come by today?”
“I’d love nothing more but if you do, once that office door closes, I cannot be held accountable for what I do to you.”
“Mr. Heatherington, behave.”
“It’s Kane to you from now on.”
“Kane … behave.”
