I sighed. “This is the only swimsuit I have. Irish gave it to me. I didn’t pick it out. I look terrible in a white bikini. I’d never have bought this.”
Levi let out a hard laugh. “No, sweetheart, you look incredible. All that creamy skin. Jesus Christ, cover up.”
Oh. This was because he liked it? I tried not to smile, but it was hard. “I was going to just lie here and read.”
His eyes went wide. “In that?”
I nodded, feeling giddy.
“Shit, Aspen. You’re not that naive.”
“What do you mean?”
He rubbed his beard. “Dammit. I mean, you …” he growled. “Fuck. I don’t want Kye seeing you like this.”
Watching him struggle with this possessiveness was exciting and a complete turn-on. Not that he needed any help turning me on. Everything he did was sexy.
“He’s not here,” I told him.
“He will be. Just cover up. Please. Change.”
He seemed almost frantic. I loved it.
“Okay,” I replied. “I’ll need to stay out here and dry first since I don’t have a towel.”
He muttered a curse, then pulled his shirt off. “Hands up,” he ordered me.
I did as instructed, and he put his shirt on over my bikini. It smelled like him, and I smiled. I wasn’t going to complain about being wrapped up in his scent.
“Who was the fucker who talked to you today?” His tone was still angry.
I rolled my eyes. Six had a big mouth. “Brent McCumber. I know him from back home.”
Levi continued to study me. “Is he an ex-boyfriend?”
I shook my head because I couldn’t really call him that.
“So, you often have guys chasing you from another state, claiming to love you?”
Six was nosy and had a big mouth.
“That was a first,” I said.
“You sure he didn’t get a taste of that pussy and wants more?”
It felt like he’d slapped me.
“What?” I asked, not believing I had heard him correctly.
“It sure was soaking wet when I touched it the first time. If he got his hands and mouth on it, then he might want more. Enough to follow you.” His voice sounded cruel. As if he was mocking me. Calling me a liar.
“He never touched me.” My voice was barely above a whisper.
Levi reached out and grabbed my chin. “Did you love him?” he snarled.
“No.”
“Why did you stop Six from making him leave you alone?” His words were close to a growl.
