“A hot tub?”
He watched her face, could imagine her thoughts soaring, filled with possibilities and ideas. “Or did you want to take a shower first?”
“That’s a good idea,” she replied, sounding dreamy, as if she was too relaxed to want to even get out of bed.
“Or we could go for a swim.”
She looked at him suspiciously. “You have the energy to go swimming now?”
“Who said anything about swimming?”
Her lips spread out into a lazy smile.
“We were supposed to get supplies,” he said, remembering. “Are you hungry? Maybe we should get something to eat?
“I want to do all of those things,” she said, sitting up in bed, still wearing the bikini. He reached behind her, and untied it, releasing her breasts. Throwing the flimsy garment to the floor, he sat up, lowered his head to her breast, and suckled her, moaning in appreciation as his manhood shot to attention.
“I thought we were getting out of bed,” she murmured, her fingers in his hair, as he moved to the other breast, sucking that as hard, drawing the nipples out into peaks.
“We can do whatever we want.” He looked up at her. “Just know that whatever you decide, I'm going to make you come.”
“Again?” she breathed, her voice, lifting, and slightly unsteady. Her bedroom eyes seductive. “Then listen up,” she said, breathing into his face, sending a signal directly to his excitement. “Here's what I want. I want to take a shower, first.”
A groan escaped his lips. He saw an image of her standing in the shower, the water spraying onto her back while he was on his knees with his tongue buried deep inside her.
“And then I want to sit in the hot tub.”
Ahhhh, the possibilities were endless.
“What about food? Aren’t you hungry?” he asked.
“Food after the hot tub.”
He would have her bent over the countertop or lying flat over the kitchen table.
“And then a swim.”
A midnight swim. He knew how that would end.
One woman, for life. He was young, but nobody else had ever made him feel things in his heart as deeply as this woman had. And maybe nobody else ever would.
He squeezed her hand gently.
What the hell had happened to Xavier-The-Stud-Stone?
Izzy Laronde. That’s what.
*** The End ***
I hope you enjoyed The Bet, and reading about Xavier and Izzy. The second book in the Indecent Intentions Series is The Hookup which is Luke’s story.
If you have a moment to spare, and if it’s not too much trouble, please consider leaving a review at Goodreads or Amazon. A review can be as short as one sentence, and your opinion goes a long way in helping others decide if a book is for them.
Thank you.
