“But I would like nothing more than to take it off you right now,” he said, his voice husky with need.
I swallowed hard. Although I didn’t want to hold back and didn’t care what people thought, I wasn’t ready to have sex on a public beach. That was more than I was comfortable with.
Placing my hand on his chest, I said, “Maybe you can help me out of it, tonight.”
“You can count on it.” Kissing me briefly, he then stepped back. “I’m hoping the water is cold because I could really use it right now.”
I giggled. “I think it’s going to take an ice bath for me.”
We headed out of the tent. Neither of us was interested in the jet skis any longer, but we were going to make the most of it. This weekend was all about havingfun.Sex was just the icing on the cake.
CHAPTER 17
Niko
I couldn’t wait to get off the beach and leave the resort. Why had I planned a romantic dinner on the beach? Because Ovi deserved it. Neither of us touched much of our food and when I suggested that we head home, she didn’t hesitate at all.
Ovi was putting it all out there today. She never held back. When she held onto my back on the jet ski, her hands felt more like they were exploring rather than holding on. We’d been making jokes and teasing each other about tonight, but now it was fast approaching, and she was quietly sitting in the passenger seat. Maybe she was having second thoughts. God knows I should. There was so much I hadn’t told her, and we shouldn’t move forward until I did. But if I broached the subject of her father or cancer, her walls would go up.
I easily could come up with an excuse about work and give her an out. But did she want one? Earlier, I’d have instantly said no. Right now, I couldn’t read her. I knew she was in deep thought.Do I ask?
The answer was clear. I had to. “What are you thinking about?”
She turned to me and said, “I can’t remember the last time I had so much fun. I won’t ever forget this day.”
“Neither will I.” I was glad she enjoyed herself, but was she trying to tell me that it was over?
I pulled into the driveway and put the vehicle in park but didn’t shut it off. She looked at me and asked, “Do you want to come in?”
Hell yes.
I turned off the car and walked around to open her door. She took my hand in hers as we walked up the path to her front door. We both were consenting adults. We knew what we wanted, well, what we wanted tonight. I didn’t think either of us had a clue past that.
She deserved promises of tomorrow, but I couldn’t give her that. Even though I promised Trye I’d watch over her, Ovi was her own woman, and no one, not even I, was going to change that.
Wouldn't want to. You’re perfect the way you are.
Inside her home, I closed the door behind us and locked it.
“Would you like a glass of wine or something,” she asked.
“I’ll take the something,” I replied, pulling her into my arms. “I think this will do.”
Her lips tasted sweeter each time we kissed. How was that possible?
I forced myself to take things slow, for Ovi. But my body was telling me otherwise. As I fought to hold back, Ovi made her intentions clear.
With her hands on my shoulders, she pushed me back against the door, then wrapped her arms around my neck and kissed me hard.
Fuck yeah.
Any doubts about what she wanted were gone. I lifted her high into my arms and grabbed her legs to wrap around my waist as I spun around. With a thud, her back was against the door, and I was kissing her jaw, neck, and then lips again.
I didn’t just want her; it was a raw uncontrollable need that I'd never experienced before. But I didn’t want to hurt her either. I slowed down a little, and let her slip from my grasp until her feet were on the floor. With my finger gently tugging the cotton dress up, I inched it higher and higher, until it was just below her ribcage.
Ovi raised her arms above her head. We stopped kissing long enough for me to slip it off her. Tossing it to the side, I quickly pulled my T-shirt off as well. There was still too much fabric between us. Reaching behind her, I found the strings to her bikini top and pulled. It loosened, and I moved to the next one. When her breasts were free, I moaned as her taut nipples contacted my chest.
“Ovi,” I groaned, as she kissed my neck, her hands reaching around me and her fingernails raking down my back.
