“What do you want, baby?” His hot breath coated my cheek.
“You know what I want.”
“Say it,” he demanded, low and rough.
I almost orgasmed on the spot. “I want you to fuck me.”
“Good girl,” he whispered with a dark, devilish smirk. “Now, hold on tight.”
As I tightened my grip on his shoulders, Adam released his length from his underwear while yanking mine aside. With one hard thrust, I cried out as I surrendered to the fullness I’d yearned for since our first meeting.
Adam slammed into me again and again until the water crashed over the edge, spilling onto the tiles above. Through an ecstasy-filled haze, I gazed up at the ceiling, full of dancing diamonds, and smiled. It was beautiful.I felt beautiful.
As my eyes rolled back, Adam’s entire body tensed on release, giving me the warmth I hadn’t felt inside since…my eyes widened.
“Fuck,” he muttered as if reading my thoughts. “Please tell me you’re on the pill.”
“Yes,” I cried. “But what about…” I pulled away and swam to the ladder, lifting my bikini straps as I climbed.
“Cass, I’m clean,” he called after me. “I got tested a couple of weeks ago, and you’re the only one I’ve ever done that with. Fuck, you’re the only one I’ve been with since our first night together.”
“And I’m supposed to believe that?” I grabbed a towel. “Oh my God, how could we be so irresponsible?”
“Cass, relax.” He followed me out of the pool. “We got caught up in the moment.”
I spun around to face him. “Finnis the result of one of those moments, Adam. It changed the entire course of my life.”
“Calm down. It really isn’t a big deal.”
“Of course you would say that.” I quickly dried myself off.
“What’s that supposed to mean?”
“You have money and stability,” I growled as I slipped on my robe. “And the one time I get close to having just one of those things, I jeopardize everything because I can’t control my fucking libido around you.”
Adam’s frown deepened as he stepped closer. “You haven’t jeopardized anything.”
I moved aside, not able to meet his gaze. “That can’t happen again. Not while I’m working here.”
“Come on, Cass. We’re both consenting adults.”
“Yet we’re acting like teenagers!” I attempted to leave, but he blocked my escape.
“That’s because the tension between us is wound up so fucking tight.” He grasped my arms. “Maybe if we relieve some of it, we’ll be able to control ourselves.”
I tried to push him off. “Then we’ll have to relieve it the old-fashioned way.”
“How can I possibly go back to my hand after that?”
“I’m sure there are a million women willing to help with that.”
Hurt flared through his energy as he dropped his arms. “Is that what you want me to do? Fuck other women?”
I lowered my eyes as tears endeavored to burn their way to the surface.
“Tell me,” he growled.
My quivering breath outed my truth. “No.”
