“Uh… you texted me. Said you needed my help ASAP. Did you need help drying off?”

“Only if you have time in your schedule.”

“What schedule? Everyone’s gone. Apparently, I have no plans.”

“Is that so?” He wags his eyebrows up and down.

“It is, but I get the feeling you already know that.”

He doesn’t flinch or confess to anything.

“Mia headed for San Francisco before the sun was up. Cal and Knox have both been MIA since yesterday, and Mom and Gus took off without me. Some family vacation. Mom and Gus didn’t even text me. Just left me behind.”

“They didn’t leave you behind.”

“Hate to break it to you, but they did.”

“I texted and told them we went for a morning hike and that you left your phone in your room.”

I gasp. “You what?”

“I wanted you to myself?”

“Excuse me?”

Appalled is what I should be. Instead, giddy butterflies in my stomach take flight. And my heart leaps to hear him say he wants me.

“A year is too long, darlin’.”

Yes. Yes, it is.

He takes me by the hand, tugging me into his villa. I don’t protest. Why waste the energy when being alone with him sounds incredible?

As he pulls me behind him, I watch droplets of water drip from his wet hair over his shoulders and down his back. Maybe if I’m a good girl, he’ll let me lick them from his body.

“So, you think you can upend my vacation to meet your sexual desires?” I ask, even though I’m more than okay with him ruining my plans.

“Yes, because I know you’d rather spend the day naked in my bed. Why would you want to spend hours looking at dirty stars on a sidewalk with your mom and brother when you could have a day full of orgasms with me?”

I could argue, but he sees right through me. We’ve barely made it into his bedroom and I’m wet and needy already.

“You think you know me so well.”

“Sweetheart, I know for a fact when I strip you bare and bury my face in your pussy, I’ll find it weeping for me.”

He tugs off his towel, letting it drop to the floor. My eyes follow the V that leads to his beautiful cock. I’ve honestly never seen a prettier penis.

“My eyes are up here, Miss McKinnon.” He steps so close that the heat from his naked body teases my senses. God, he smells delicious.

He flicks my nose like he so often does.

As playful as his gesture seems, what’s about to take place between the two of us will be anything but sweet. Knowing this, my nipples tighten with anticipation.

“You look beautiful. Is that a new dress?”

“It is.”

And I was hoping he’d take it off me at some point today. I figured I’d end up alone with him. We always find our way to each other’s beds when we’re hundreds of miles away from home.
