“If you keep asking, I’ll accidentally tell you. And I really want it to be a surprise.” The air dropped a few degrees as he carried me outside. And then I was positive that he deposited me into his car.

Yes, he did. Because he’d just buckled me in.

“Adonis, my friends...”

“Are aware of the change of plans.”

I pressed my lips together. And not one of them had given me a hint? That was hard to believe. “Are you sure they know where to meet us?”

“They’re aware of the change of plans,” Adonis said again with a laugh.

“If we’re actually leaving Larry alone all evening, did you leave her enough food?”

“Of course I did.”

“Because your dad doesn’t put enough wet food in when he feeds her. The ratio is...”

“Everything is covered, Aphrodite. I went over it again with my dad. He’ll do it right. Now, sit back, relax, and get ready for your surprise.”

I smiled. Well, I liked the sound of that.

I stared out of the plane at the sea of blue as we got closer to the islands in the distance. “You know, my friends were originally worried that you were a kidnapper. And here we are.”

Adonis laughed. “Were they really?”

“Yes.” But I knew my friends weren’t worried anymore. After all, Adonis had somehow gotten my passport. That would have involved RJ or Scarlett’s help. And definitely Scarlett’s help for packing me a suitcase. And even though Scarlett hadn’t exactly been Team Adonis this past week, I was glad she’d helped.

You only turned 18 once. Why not in the Bahamas?

“Sorry that we couldn’t fly private,” Adonis said. “It was super last minute.”

Was he seriously apologizing for first class? I didn’t care how we flew. I just cared that we were together. “This is perfect.”

He smiled. “It’s about to be. We better hurry.” He stood up and put his hand out for me.

I just stared at him in the aisle.

“One of my presents is waiting for you, Aphrodite. Come with me.”

Okay? I slid my hand into his and he pulled me to my feet, guiding me toward the back of the plane. Did he give one of the flight attendants something to give to me?

Adonis looked both ways and then pulled me into the bathroom.

I laughed as he pulled me to his chest and locked the door.

“We only have a few minutes before the fasten seatbelt sign lights up. So we better make this quick.”

“Make what quick?” I asked.

He grabbed my ass and lifted my legs around him, slamming my back against the bathroom door. “One of my presents to you is a membership to the mile high club.”

I heard the zip of his jeans. “Are you sure that’s a present for me?” I raised my eyebrow at him.

“Oh, I plan on making it very memorable.” He slid one of his hands up the inside of my thigh and pushed my thong to the side. “But like I said. We don’t have much time. So this is going to be hard and fast. Try not to alert the whole plane that you’re riding my cock, Aphrodite.”

I didn’t even get a chance to respond.
