‘You’re fucking incredible, princess,’ he said with a kiss on my head as he wrapped his arms tighter around me.
‘You’re not so bad, yourself, Mr. Montoya.’
When we’d caught our breath, Alejandro sat up. ‘Come on, let’s get cleaned up,’ he said as he stood up and pulled me with him.
Half an hour later, we were lying in bed again, fresh from a very long shower, during which Alejandro had tenderly washed every part of my body.
I lay with my head on his chest, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.
‘So, are we going to talk about what you said to me before, or are we going to pretend it never happened?’ he asked.
Shit!
‘What did I say?’ I asked, feigning my ignorance.
‘You don’t remember telling me that you loved me when my cock was buried in your ass?’ he said with a laugh.
‘Oh, that?’ I felt the skin on my cheeks flush pink.
He placed his index finger under my chin and tilted my head so he could look in my eyes. ‘Did you mean it, or was it the orgasm talking?’
‘Do you want the truth?’ I asked him.
‘Of course I do,’ he said with a frown.
‘Then yes. I meant it.’
I wondered if he’d be angry with me for complicating things, or laugh at me for being so foolish. Alejandro Montoya didn’t do love.
‘I love you too, princess,’ he said before bending his head to kiss me softly.
I felt like my heart was going to burst out of my chest with happiness. Was this for real? ‘I thought you didn’t do love?’
‘That was before I met you.’
‘But why me? All of those women you’ve dated, why do you love me? The woman you could barely stand to look at on our wedding day?’
He ran his fingertips over my cheek. ‘When your father and I came to our business arrangement, one of the reasons I agreed was because I thought you were a spoiled little rich girl who was too wrapped up in herself to consider anyone else. I knew I could never even like someone like that, let alone fall in love. I thought that you were marrying me for the lifestyle I could offer you, and the money. I hadn’t realized that you did it only out of love for your father.’
‘But why did you want to marry someone like that?’ I blinked at him.
‘Because I wasn’t supposed to fall in love with you, Alana. Love is messy and complicated, and I didn’t have time for that. But you are nothing like the woman I thought you were. I may have stolen you, but you have stolen my heart, princess. You are the most precious thing in the world to me.’
I blinked at him. This really couldn’t be true, could it? It was like some kind of fairy tale. ‘You love me while we’re here, in this place where nobody can reach us. But when we get back to the real world, what if you feel differently?’
‘I won’t, because I didn’t feel differently in the real world. But I didn’t tell you that, because I thought you could never love a monster like me.’
I placed my hand on his cheek. ‘You’re not a monster. Not to me.’
He pulled me tighter to him and kissed me so hard I almost forgot my own name.
ALANA
We’d left early in the morning and driven the whole day. Alejandro had even let me drive his Maserati and I’d put my foot down so hard on the gas that he’d warned me I’d get a spanking if I didn’t behave.
He’d turned on his cell phone and I’d expected him to have a flurry of messages and notifications of missed calls, but he only had one from his mom, telling him to have a good time and that she’d speak to him when he was back online.
It seemed that Jax really had handled everything in his absence, as Alejandro had known he would. I got the impression he disappeared like this every now and again.
