Placing my hand inside Declan’s I rise from my seat and follow him back to the stateroom. He grabs one of his t-shirts out of the bag and hands it to me.

“There’s no way you’re sleeping in that dress,” he gestures toward my clothing and strips down to his boxers before sliding under the covers.

Unzipping my dress, I slide the stretchy material down my body and step out of it. Throwing on Declan’s shirt, I bend over and pick the dress up, laying it across the dresser. Declan pulls the cover back and I slip in beside him. His arm is around me before my back even touches his chest.

“Sleep well,mo ghrá,” he whispers before kissing my cheek. Not long after, soft snores come from behind me, and I stifle a laugh. Ithasbeen an exceptionally long day and I’m surprised he made it this long before falling asleep. I lay there for a moment, just staring at the other side of the room. A million things running through my mind, but I keep coming back to Siorc. Who is he? Why did he want my brother dead? What was his plan for me?

“Go to sleep Nat,” Declan grumbles from behind me. His voice startles me since I thought he was in a deep sleep. “Whatever you’re worrying about, stop. Finn is capable of holding down the fort.”

“I’m going,” I whisper before shimmying my body as close as possible. My eyes finally close and sleep takes over, giving my mind a much needed break.

A knock on the door brings me out of my sleep. “Ms. Belov?” The flight attendant's voice comes from the other side. “We will be landing in about an hour.”

“Thank you,” I call out and turn to face Declan. He’s still sleeping, and I hate to wake him. Reaching up, I gently run my hand through his hair and brush my thumb against his cheek. “Hey, Dec,” I murmur, “time to get up.”

He grumbles in his sleep and tightens his grip around my waist, pulling me closer. “I don’t wanna.”

Smiling at his words, I lean up and kiss his cheek. “Come on, in an hour and a half we will be sitting on a beach with no worries… and if you need more incentive, you should see my bathing suit.”

His eyes pop open and a half grin spreads on his face. “Now you’re talking,” he rolls over, pinning me beneath him. His hand slips under my shirt and up to my breast, a devious smile on his face.

“Dec, there will be plenty of time for this later.” My hands rest on his shoulders, and he takes my nipple between his fingers before rolling it between them. The gesture elicits a soft moan from my lips and his grin widens. He moves his hand from my breast and slides it between my legs. He pulls the dainty lace fabric to the side, running his finger along the seam of my pussy lips. His finger slips between them and I gasp as he lightly rubs my clit in tiny circles. “Declan,” I warn, just as he slides his finger inside.

“Fine, fine.” He removes his finger, and I instantly miss the feeling of him inside me. “But only because I want to take my time worshiping your delicious pussy later.” He brings his finger up to his mouth and licks my arousal off of it.

His words send a chill down my spine, and I shiver slightly. “Keep talking like that and we won’t leave the room the whole weekend,” I breathe.

“That would be the best birthday present in the history of presents.” He leans down to kiss my neck and nips gently at the delicate flesh.

“Too bad. I have an even better idea for this weekend,” I pull his face away from my neck and smile up at him.

“Oh yeah? What’s that?” He asks as he rolls off me and onto his back beside me.

I look up at the ceiling for a moment before turning to face him. Propping myself up on one arm, I smirk. “Let’s get married while we are here.”

Declan raises an eyebrow and chuckles. “That will piss off a lot of people, my littlediabhal.” He reaches up and brushes a stray piece of hair from my face. “Is that what you want?”

“It is. I’d much rather have a small intimate ceremony with just us, opposed to one that will be over the top.” I answer honestly and give him a reassuring smile.

“My father will have a stroke,” Declan says, rubbing his temple. “If this is really what you want, Nat.”

“I already packed us something to wear,” I reply excitedly and sit up.

Another knock at the door causes me to groan. “Twenty minutes. Please get ready for landing.”

Declan pulls me in for a quick peck on the lips before letting me go and climbing out of bed. I follow suit, grabbing my dress off the chair. Stripping out of the shirt, I throw it over to Declan who catches it and puts it back in his suitcase. Once I’m dressed, I take my hair out of the now disheveled bun,quickly running my fingers through it.

We return to our seats just as the seatbelt sign flashes and I look out the window as we begin to make our descent. The view is absolutely breathtaking. Crystal blue waters as far as the eye can see and white sandy beaches await us.

Declan whistles and places his hand on my thigh. “You picked a beautiful spot, Natalia.” I place my hand on his, intertwining our fingers together.

Once we have disembarked the plane, the car to take us to the resort is already waiting for us. We spent the short drive looking out the window and admiring the view. Since it’s such a small island, the tourists are few and far between.

“Here we are,” the driver comes to a stop at the front of the resort.

Thanking him, we climb out, and Declan grabs our suitcases. Taking in a deep breath, I smile as the smell of saltwater fills my nose. Declan takes my hand and leads us inside to check in. When we’re finally able to get into our room, I head straight for the large porch to admire the view.

A pair of arms snake around my waist, and I smile as Declan places his chin on my shoulder. “I was thinking we could go down to the beach for a few hours, and then this evening we can ask some locals about getting married,” Declan states.
