He wrapped his hands around her waist. “Mmm, you’re welcome.” His fingers brushed the top of her ass. “We should probably get back to the cabin.”
“Cabin?” asked the pilot. “You’re not staying in the mountains, are you?”
“Yeah,” Skye said. She briefly told him where Bob’s cabin was located.
The pilot shook his head. “Snow’s already falling. By the time you drive up there, the road’s going to be closed. You’re stuck down here for the night, maybe longer.”
She turned to Ash. “What are we going to do?”
Ash’s lips pinched together. “This certainly complicates things.”
No kidding.
“How adventurous do you feel?” He had the strangest look on his face.
“Why?”
“How about hunting the mother of all waterfalls?”
The fading light glinted in his eyes. As he stretched, the spiderweb tattoo flexed on his neck, making the dragon seem like it was about to take flight. Devastatingly handsome didn’t even begin to describe this man.
“Mother of all waterfalls?”
He shrugged. “We can’t go back to the cabin, but I still have two more days with you. Let’s head north. I’ve never seen Niagara Falls.”
She fisted her hands and settled them on her hips. “You want to drive to Niagara?”
He pointed to the pilot. “I want to fly.”
The pilot looked to the sky. “We would have to take off within the hour.”
They were crazy.
“And what about the storm?”
The pilot waved a hand. “Not a problem for the jet. I need to file a flight plan before we leave and get the jet fueled.”
She tugged on Ash’s coat sleeve and pulled him over to speak in private. “And how exactly are we going to pay for this?”
His smirk returned in full force. “Wooing going on, babe. You let me worry about that.” His mouth dropped to her ear, and the song tumbled from his lips.
Insanity,
It was meant to be.
He kissedher ear and then straightened. “Take a chance. Let’s hunt this waterfall. Same conditions as before. Nothing changes. What do you have to lose?”
Her sanity.
Ash shared a degree of impulsiveness with Forest. She was always the practical one. Forest took risks and did crazy things. Renting a plane would be right up his alley.
“You want to charter a plane?”
He gathered her hair and swept it to the side. “Don’t worry about the money. Let’s live a little. Imagine Niagara Falls in December. How cool is that?”
“Sounds pretty damn cold.”
“We’ll buy scarves.”
