I rub Beckett’s back. “Wake up.”
He mumbles, “No. I’m staying here all day.” He wiggles his hips. I can feel his erection on my leg. “Better yet, I’ll get back inside you and stay there all day.”
I quickly cover his mouth and whisper, “Your mom is here.”
He turns his head and opens an eye. “Oh Christ. Tell me I’m having a nightmare. Tell me I’m not a middle-aged man whose mom just walked in on him naked with a woman.”
I giggle and Glinda’s grin couldn’t possibly get any wider. I happily feel like a teenager getting busted by an adult.
We hear Andie’s voice. “Gigi, where are the cherries and whipped cream? I can’t find any.”
Glinda looks at the empty can and bowl next to us and bites back her smile. She yells, “I think your daddy ate it all. He must have beenreallyhungry. We’ll pick up some more at the store today.”
Beckett groans, and I giggle again before pinching my eyebrows together. “Glinda, what are you doing here? I thought you were flying out of New York.”
“Beckett didn’t tell you?”
I shake my head.
“Reagan needs him to go to Italy for a project this week. She told him yesterday afternoon after we had already left. He asked me to stay an extra week with Andie.” She starts to turn. “I’ll keep Andie in the kitchen so you two can clean up. I’m leaving your scattered clothes on the banister.” She looks back and winks at me. “And your ripped panties.”
She leaves the room, and he collapses his head back on my chest. “Sorry about that. Two months of the year. I have two months where my mother is in my business every day, but you know why I put up with it.”
I run my fingers through his hair. “It doesn’t bother me. I adore your mom. You’re so lucky to have her. Aparent that loves and cares about you isn’t as common as you’d think.”
He nods in understanding.
“You’re going to Italy? Why didn’t you tell me your mom was staying longer?”
I can feel him swallow. “Honestly, I wanted our stupid deal to be over so we could be together for real. I wanted you to stay for me, not for our deal or my mother.” He looks up at me and scrunches his nose. “Does that make sense?”
I lean forward and softly kiss his lips. “It does.”
“Will you come with me?”
“Come with you where? To Italy?”
I try to slide out from under him, but he maintains a tight hold. Sitting up, he moves me to straddle him. He’s so damn strong. He can carry me and toss me around like I weigh nothing.
“Yes. Come with me.”
“No, I can’t.”
“I want you to.”
“I can’t afford that and before you say anything, you’renotpaying for me.”
He sighs. “Reagan is flying me out on the company jet. I’m staying at a friend’s house the first night and then I have a boat we can stay on when we go to the coast. There are no expenses. I’ll have painting supplies brought onboard. You can paint there.”
He kisses up my neck and then licks along the same path. Nibbling on my ear and rubbing his hands all over my body, he whispers, “I want you to myself. I’ve been waiting so long for you. Rome is like nowhere else on the planet. It’s like seeing pages of a history book come to life. The Amalfi Coast is more beautiful than any place you’ve everbeen. Photos and movies don’t do it justice. You need to experience it in person. Think of the beautiful landscapes you can create. I promise you that you’ve never seen anything more breathtaking.”
He continues kissing and licking me. How am I supposed to deny him anything right now? And he does make a compelling argument. When will I ever have an opportunity like this? I’m already dreaming of all the paintings I could create.
He slides my hair behind my ear and holds my face so our eyes meet. “Please come. It would mean the world to me. I have one meeting I need to go to in Rome. You can sightsee. And then we can have some fun on the Amalfi Coast. I want to make love to you on my boat under the stars.” He briefly closes his eyes. “I’ve dreamed of it so many times.”
I bite my lip as I genuinely consider it. He pulls it out from my teeth. “It makes my cock stir every time you do that. All. Fucking. Month.”
I defiantly bite it again, and I watch as he hardens in front of my eyes.
