"Yeah?"

"Yeah. Because I wanted you, too."

His tone grew playful. "And if I'd asked…?"

I paused. "Well, I would've been tempted…" My words trailed off as I felt another finger slide inside me. It felt so amazingly good.

"How tempted?"

Oh, man.What was he doing with his thumb? Whatever it was, it felt incredible. My clit was aching now, just like my nipples had been aching for more of his touch.

In fact, all of me was aching with raw need.

In a teasing tone, Jax said, "Tell me."

"What?" I gave a shaky laugh. "Oh, yeah. How tempted? Well, the thing is…"

Oh, my.That feltsogood. With everything he was doing, how was I supposed to think, much less form a coherent sentence?

In a leading voice, he said, "The thing is…?"

"Well, I didn't know you all that well, and I didn't think there'd ever be anything between us." As his fingers worked their magic, I gave a muffled moan. "Just like now, I don't want anything between us."

I wasn't even sure if I was making any sense. I was definitely rambling. But seriously, how was I supposed to think straight when he was doing all of these wonderful things to my body?

I heard myself say, "Like my swimsuit. And your swimsuit, too. They shouldn't be between us."

His fingers were moving slowly in and out, driving me to distraction. I was so warm now, and I could feel the slickness between my thighs building with every delicious motion.

My eyes had been mostly shut, but now I opened them, wanting desperately to see him. When I did, I was surprised to discover that he was looking straight at my face, like I was the most fascinating person he'd ever seen.

As if.

No. Hewas the fascinating one, not me. And this felt like a dream, complete with the endless ocean and the sky above – but most of all, Jax.

He said, "I'm never gonna let you go. You know that right?"

I would've loved to know such a thing, but even in my blissful state, I knew there were no guarantees in this world, especially with a guy like him, who could have any girl he wanted.

But Ididknow one thing for sure. I wanted him. And the thought of waiting a moment longer was too unbearable to consider. I whispered, "Then maybe you should get closer."

It had to be now, because already, I was on the verge of losing it, and I wanted him inside me when it happened.

Finally, when I thought I'd go absolutely insane, he pulled back and nudged down my bikini bottoms. Desperate to have him inside me, I tugged at his swimsuit, pushing it past his hips until his body was completely free.

At last, we were both naked, and he was above me, looking down with the same desire that I felt coursing through my entire being. I reached between us, and positioned his length at my opening.

Finally, in one slow, steady motion, he slid into me, filling me so completely, I could hardly think. I could hardly breathe.

I was trying to be quiet. We were, after all, technically outdoors. And yet, I couldn't stop myself nearly as much as I wanted as he drove into me like there was no tomorrow.

I wrapped my legs around his hips and my arms around his back. We were so very close, and it felt like all my very best fantasies come to life.

Almost immediately, I felt the telltale contracting of my muscles and the fluttering in my stomach. His lips closed on mine as we continued to move, and I fell into sweet oblivion, too lost to even wonder if the chair would hold us or if anyone would hear.

But the lounge did hold, and if the neighbors heard, they didn't complain – thank goodness.

When Jax shuddered against me, I felt happy and sated in a way I'd never imagined. Who knows, maybe thiswasa fantasy, because things like this simply didn't happen in real life.
