“Me too,” she purrs laying her head on me.

“What did you think about the girls’ rings?” I really want to know her thoughts about ever remarrying.

She doesn’t move her head. “Beautiful. I can’t even begin to fathom how much Andy and Michael must have spent on them.”

I laugh. “More than two months’ worth of salaries.” She cuts her eye up at me. “Remember, I know what they make.” She smiles, looking back down, and toys with my buttons.

“You think you will ever remarry?” There, that was casual enough.

“Have you ever wanted to marry?”Answering a question with a question.

“No!” She doesn’t say anything. “I’ve never met anyone that I found interesting enough to even date, Amelia, until you.”

“Oh.” She’s moving her fingertips along my forearm.

“You haven’t answered my question, about remarrying.” She’s obviously processing it.

“I don’t know,” she breathes. “I mean, I guess one day. You know once I actually get this marriage dissolved.” We both laugh at her comment. I’m going to make sure this one is dissolved immediately.

The carriage stops, and she brings her head off my chest. I climb out first and hold my hand for Amelia. “Everyone has to check out the Queen’s Staircase.”

“Why?” She looks at the stairs. “Where does it go?”

I look up at it. “Nowhere.” We start laughing. “It leads the way to another attraction for you to see. Come sweetheart.” I grab her hand and we start climbing the steps.

“Amelia, Quinton turn around, strike some sexy poses.” Tierra is grinning with her phone. “I’ll get pics for you. Amelia, you look fucking fab in the dress by the way.”

“Yeah she does,” I quip. I wrap my arm around her waist, pulling her tight. She naturally flips her hip out, with her hand resting on my chest while her fingertips dangle up and over my shoulder. This just feels natural. Relaxed.

“Damn that looks sexy, give me a model face.” Tierra giggles. Amelia rolls her eyes.

“I have no model face.” She laughs, looking at me. Yeah, she has a beautiful face. I lean down and start smooching her seductively with our single-lip kisses, she always lets me lead with sucking her bottom lip, and her my top.

“This works too.” Tierra is in the background. “Okay I got some shots. You can stop.”

“I don’t think it was for your benefit,” Gerry smarts as he loops his arm with Marcus, and they sashay up the steps. “Easy love birds, drawing attention,” he whispers as they pass.

“Shall we continue?” I grin, dropping my hand to just above grazing her fabulous ass. “You’re my queen.” She laughs at my comment.

“I’ve been thinking of you as my sex god after last night, but I guess I could call you a sex king.” I look at her, grinning.

AMELIA

“Ithought the guide said sixty-six steps, I only counted sixty-five.” I laugh looking back down the stairway.

“They’ve covered the first step in concrete,” Quinton reminds me.

Tierra huffs, “Really Quinton, you’re dragging us up to this old ruin? News flash, we’re not dressed for this.” I laugh looking at Quinton.

“Amelia hasn’t ever been to Nassau,” Quinton smarts as he looks back at me. “This is Fort Fincastle. It overlooks Nassau.”

“So does a helicopter ride,” Gerry quips. I laugh, looking at his gang. They’re all miserable. “Haven’t we sightseen enough of this place? I’m parched and my veins are going to convulse in cosmo withdrawals shortly.”

“Yeah, me too. I need a cosmo and something to eat,” Tina whines.

I’m with his gang, but I don’t want to be a damper to him. “I could go for a cosmo too.” I grin, looking at him.

“You ready to leave this hellhole.” I laugh at his comment.
